What are the exit opportunities for Salesforce consultants? Prior to be a consultant I have dev experience and I am losing my skill set day by day. Are there any opportunities other than development after few years in big4? My main focus on projects are, business analysis and implementation architecture.

Same thing here. I’m doing the same things every day just with slight variations. I’m trying to move to an architect role bc I spend half my time correcting my architect’s mistakes and fixing my fellow developers’ bad decisions that will create technical debt. I also have to explain things to every non-tech person on the team and it gets exhausting. Honestly I just want to quit because consulting is the most soul sucking experience.

Thoughts on offer. 5.5 YOE in BV / M&A. Broad experience over that time in Valuation advisory and strong network within current firm - anticipating 5-7 yrs to partner where I am. CPA / ABV. M2 current. Current salary $125k. Offered $150k + $7.5k SOB for a lateral move to much bigger (not b4) PA firm. Probably weaker prospects of accelerated partner track.

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?
