Currently I work for a mid-sized InsureTech that’s had 2 rounds of layoffs in the past 6 months. Salary is 100k, with no defined bonus. I have close to 4 years of PO experience. I am debating whether I want to leave since my boss is very chill and I have amazing WLB. Benefits are eh. 15 PTO days and healthcare premiums are okay. Should I jump ship? What could I be making at a bigger company? What types of companies are most stable right now?

Additional Posts in Ad fish in Toronto 🐠

Hey all—not quite an ad fish in Toronto but ideally would like to become one, and I’m not sure if there’s a better place to post this. I’m born + raised in the US, but my boyfriend lives in Canada and I’m looking, hoping, to make the jump up north to be with him full time.

I know there’s a big ad scene in Toronto. Do you think it’s possible for me to get a job there from the US and move up there?
