[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of them have been canned before. There is something about being canned that can build resilience and scrappiness. I got canned from an IC role at a prestigious firm and ended up in a high profile executive role at a slightly-less prestigious firm. Once you get that first exec role, it's easy to bounce to another exec role. But I wouldn't have known all this unless I had the experience of being canned. And, of course, it happened while my spouse was newly pregnant. I had 4 months of severance and just hounded people in my network. Had two competing offers and started 2 weeks before my severance was ending. 40% pay jump, way more visibility and responsibility.[/quote] See another (likely tall white male) who is an executive [/quote]
