I’m someone who stayed put. Same company for 7 years. Not fang. Got promoted to be a manager half way. I stayed put as it was awesome learning for me. I sucked my first year and yet felt was able to demonstrate value due to momentum from my previous impact. I am getting better at leadership and finding my skin.

But .. in retrospect, I left a lot of money on the table. I also don’t see myself making the next jump (to vp) as I have seen no one do it .. vps come from outside where I am.

I am mulling an mba or emba but it is pretty expensive in time and money.
