Depends on which side of the business you go there. Olson has 3: 1 to 1, which is direct marketing and has more going on, although limited. Engage, which deals with PR and potentially could be cool and Olson advertising, which has been through a lot of layoffs and changes. People are cool, great work/life balance. On the other hand, work it’s not challenging enough as it is more like an account-driven agency. Again, it all depends on what you’re focusing at this moment for your career.

I have three years of experience in agency recruiting and HR. I’m currently making 47k as an HR Coordinator. I’m starting to feel bitter that I took a pay cut to transition to HR from agency recruiting so I put myself open to recruiters on LinkedIn and got a Sr Recruiter contract offer with a company that I’m familiar with for $38/hour. I don’t love the company’s culture so I’m going to keep looking but would it be worth leveraging the offer with my current org? I’ve only been there for 7 months

Serious question - is there a reverse FIRE strategy? I like the idea of saving and retiring early, but the one hiccup I see (and sorry if this is grim) is if you die earlier than expected. I’d be worried that I would minimize lifestyle and fun for retirement at 50 but I’d die at 49. How about a way to work 9 months out of the year and retire/travel/relax for 3 months? This way you guaranteed your dreams/etc. are fulfilled
