I was jobless for 7 months and I was desperate looking for a job. This experience made me value my job more and it motivates me to work harder so I don't have to be in the same situation ever again.

I recently lost my job due to layoffs and really hoping this is the case for me once I find one.

This may sound cliche', but wanting to make sure that my kids don't have to struggle financially the way I did growing up. I'm not looking to give them a luxurious life, but I want to make sure all their needs are taken care of, especially their college funds, in order to set them up for a better future.

I decided a long time ago that I wasn't going to work somewhere where I didn't feel like I was making a difference, whether that was for customers, co-workers, the company itself... I discovered that's solely where my motivation comes from.

Interesting..would you like to share your company name?

Unfortunately for me it’s all about the people. And I know this sounds super cliche but it’s all based on the people I work with. If I’m surrounded around bright, hardworking and positive people it really doesn’t matter what work I do. This has become a big problem for me though as my job satisfaction is highly dependent on extraneous factors that are outside of my control. Trying to discover new ways to get motivated as I’ve moved to a remote role at a huge company where I have absolutely no sense of community.

Should I accept the offer from company A, continue interview process with company B and then rescind my offer with company A if company B offers me a job? Will I be burning bridges?

What does an exit from Salesforce consulting look like? I’m in a technical role leading a small team so my understanding is a technical/solution architect or a development team lead at either Salesforce or an end user like Amazon/Amex.

I have bounced around a couple consulting companies so would prefer not to do it again. Total 4 YOE.

I don’t think I have enough YOE to go for a program architect role at SF otherwise I’d be interested.
