Would you take a promotion into a management level hybrid role if it meant leaving your Covid-era remote position for another company? If so how much of a raise would you ask for? Commuting would take an hour and a half each way.

That’s a massive commute. Depends on your personal situation but for me would be a hard no

Thanks for the honesty and advice. I think you’re right that it’s not worth it. I’m in northwest NJ and I would rather be able to drive if I’m doing a hybrid schedule. This is in NYC so I don’t think it’d work out

I’ve done the same commute just reverse and it will eventually have a negative impact on you. I’d stay put or move if you take the new gig. You deserve those 15 hours a week for yourself IMHO

OP no way you’ll still experience the same burnout just a few less days and prob get some version of the scaries the night before your travel days

Take it and once you're in, you can figure it out. On the other hand when my kids were pre-teens, The 1.5 hour commute each way took a definite toll on me and I would never see them when I get home, because they were asleep. I would maybe do it again for a bit for the right opportunity, since my kids are older now.

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them. Applied 9/1 and on the applicant portal the status still says “in progress.” I got a great internal referral, but I’ve not reached out to the hiring manager. 😬 I know there were a few hundred applicants — what’s a realistic timeline and what could I say to the hiring manager if I reach out to them. Many thanks.

- Industry: tech
- Role: finance manager
- YOE: 5 years
- Comp: 270k aed/year + 5% bonus
- Other benefits: work from Europe/US 1 month/year, 30 vacation days

I'm SVP/strategy for a PR agency. I moved into PR, Healthcare, and Strategic Planning only 3 years ago. An agency recruiter is trying to convince me to move into a GSVP account role, assuring me "at that level it's all strategy." (I dont think she understands the words she's using. Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?

Does anyone have any examples of HCP creative (non-DSA) that is both impactful and translates well into pharma tactics?
