What’s the pm scene like in Chicago? I’m currently in New York at a small agency that I’m happy-ish at but my spouse has a really great opportunity to transfer to Chicago. We aren’t automatically dismissing it but not sure what to do. Also any Chicago senior pm salaries you could share?

I am seeing lots of hiring on LinkedIn (even though I am not looking). Most agencies seem to be planning to start asking people to come back part time before end of year, but it varies. I have seen Sr PMs make anywhere from 80K to the low 100's. I just took an awesome permanent remote role, maybe look for a job like that?

Segmenting / database quality question —- we have 2 segments based on EE count : 21-100 and 101+. We use LinkedIn as source of truth. Problem is I can’t prospect using LI Nav as they only let you pull by range 51-200. Any idea how to search LI based on LinkedIn employees (with profiles) not the range or best way to prospect into this segment?

Is anyone actually making any new trades today or just participating in the sell-off by taking money off the table/sitting tight?

MSFT, JWN, INTC, OXY/XOM, PEP, CHGG, ADBE are some of the stocks I'm closely watching/considering getting in on.

Option 1: sell puts which protects from further downside but locks my money/caps upside in case we do see recovery?

Option 2: buy shares which doesn't cap my upside in case recovery starts next 2 weeks but risk further downside?

Option 3: ???
