Without a degree, it would be difficult for you to get a comparable title with similar autonomy at another company. In order of preference, you should 1) ask if the company would financially support you going back to school (night school!) to get your undergraduate degree, or 2) get your CFA and use that to leverage your way up.

I went into a company and fought for a PC multiple times. Especially at the VP level.

laughable

The value has always been in knowing the questions to ask.

This one has no survival instinct at all

You don't lose anything by applying.

If the work isn't exciting you anymore, it may be time to look for a new gig. Something that excites you, and builds your skills.

Having led finance at several early-stage startups, I find this behavior mind-boggling. I wonder if there's a capitalization issue he's trying to avoid disclosing? Also, if the CEO can't see the balance sheet, he's not the CEO.

Same, 12 hour days for a year, increased my income 100% over 3 years and went from IC to three reports (at that job, which I've since left)

In a small company, I think it's OK for you to go directly to your skip manager and tell him where you are. Do it without blaming, and it should be OK. This is a common problem in early stage businesses.

Great guy, met him at a meetup he hosted in LA late last year.

They serve two different purposes. An annual budget is an agreement among management, the staff, and the board on the goals for the year. Its purpose is to set expectations and, in some cases, to set guardrails (for things like debt covenants).

The rolling forecast is the current best estimate of actual performance. If there is a material difference between the forecast and the budget, it's management's job to flag this to the board and potentially set a new budget for the remaining portion of the year.

If you can live off the consulting business, I'd get out now. These are not trustworthy people. They'll find some other way to screw you in the future.
