What difference in levels is there for joining a retail/luxury/consumer goods company, between PwC Senior Manager and Director? (Similar YOE, >12).
I decided to leave consulting, not sure if sticking out 1yr more for a D promotion is worth it.

Tbh you might be better joining as a manager and then getting an accelerated promo in industry. I left consulting 1 yr before director and now everyone in industry thinks I’m a rockstar, whilst I’m working 9-4.30 and feel very chilled.

Luxury consumer goods

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?

For questions as to why you are looking to leave your current firm.. I am looking to move because for some reason I am hand-held a lot and given simpler tasks, so I am getting bored and want more challenging / much more fast paced environment.

Is there a better way to frame my answer?
