I hope you're spending all your time looking for a new job (I know, I know, go down to the jobbie tree and just get a job, right). But if you can get any kind of leverage or safety net to walk away you might be able to get the job offer by threatening to leave. Best of luck to you

I absolutely have been, but holy crap this job market sucks. I've gotten so close on multiple interviews just to get passed up at the last minute (or scarier, they'll announce they've decided not to fill the role at all!)

On the upside, with this contracting gig I'm making more than I made when I worked for them full time while only working ~30 hours a week fully remotely so it's not a bad gig at all. I'm just frustrated that my boss wants to get me a job offer, the CTO wants to get me a job offer, I have the director of safety saying he wants me to get a job offer, but the CFO just isn't budging
