Working for IT team at a large company with a bigger Salesforce implementation that is in maintenance mode vs initial build out. Will have way better WLB then doing any form of Salesforce consulting, but probably less exciting work.

Go look at any of the past Dreamforce success story companies and go looking through their job opportunities for Salesforce. If you scope to Fortune 500 companies that will help make sure TC is respectable as well.

I've worked my way down to the "small" category of company, and the WLB is best at this level, for me. As a team manager/lead, I actively check in with my team if they ever put in more than 40 two weeks in a row to see what we need to adjust to make sure we're not asking that of people (only exception is go-lives!), and the smaller the firm, the more flexible the time. We also have lower billable goals than other firms which has really helped the experience. I really like where I've landed at Cirrius, and you'll likely find a similar experience with other small firms!

I've found that smaller (obvs non-Deloitte/accentureesque) consulting firms can actually be pretty decent. I'm at a small (under 100 employee) firm right now and sitting at about 70% utilization in the year and I have zero concern about job security. I'd say once, maybe twice per quarter is there a situation I'm working past 6, and 90% of the time I'm done by 5

There is some of that work, but we’re really not cost competitive that work and it really upsets our partners if we do too much of it. I’ve mostly done roadmaps, phase 0, roll out strategy etc

What size company?

I had a great experience at Slalom, but unfortunately the leader who drove Slalom’s Salesforce culture and growth left earlier this year. Very inspirational leader. With that departure, there is no direction, strategy, or clarity on who is even running the ship. And slalom just feels chaotic and reactive in general during the downturn. I made the decision to move on to something smaller.

Have you ever taken a career slow down? I am feeling burnt out from COVID and the incremental responsibilities thrown my way over the last 5+ years. I feel like my health has deteriorated. I like my company, but I want to do less. I don’t need to be a HR Director, CHRO, etc. With a career slowdown, I am prepared for a lower compensation and would want decent benefits. Any lessons learned or success stories about career slowdowns?

Doesn’t have to be high-paying, as long as it can support my life (single) and long-term medical cost. Thanks in advance.

Has anyone left healthcare and is now really happy? I’m an MSN, RN with 12 years hospital experience. I’m burned out and tired of making crap pay. I have an opportunity outside of healthcare that would pay more and challenge me in new ways that I haven’t experienced before. It’s a total shift that would really heal my work-life balance, job satisfaction and budget. My only fear is that I would not be using the license and degree that I worked so hard for. I would appreciate any input!!!!
