Hilarious but no. Network you keep or lose based on you keeping touch. Having jumped 5 times, I can tell you it’s only helped

likehelpful

Jumping externally often leads to a higher position and/or salary than staying

likehelpful

It hurts career progression due to constant loss of network

funny

Agreed with BCG 1, networking is about people keeping in touch/communication. There is no timeline for when to jump/not to jump

Jump always equals a much higher salary. One that can’t be matched by most promotions.

It works very well for a certain type of person. Doesn’t work for others.

'Ho-ing' has its advantages... "insert jump around song in here"

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.

Hi folks. I’m a data scientist at a T2/B4 firm that does fairly technical work. I am prepping for interviews to transition to SWE-data at a big tech company and currently have a little over 1 yoe.

Since prep usually takes a while for swe, I have not started seriously applying. However, I am likely to receive an offer for 110-120k at another consulting firm. I was hoping to get some thoughts from other technical folks that made the transition. More in comments

Hi! Wanted to get thoughts from those who have exited to a startup from MBB/T2. Have an offer from a series C start up — would take ~$20k base cut but with bonus (annually) would make about 25k more TC plus RSUs. Much better WLB and great people. Is the base cut normal? Thoughts?
