How often do you think about your comfort level in your current role to decide if you should make a “next move” or not? It’s usually about 4-6 months for me but I’ve been happy the past couple years in my role - at the same time I worry about not challenging myself enough 😅

Hello, I’ve been in HR for 9 months with no previous experience. I did really well in managing my daily tasks for the first 5 months but things have fallen behind as I’ve been tasked with owning FMLA and I just can’t seem to keep up with anything. My supervisor is now investigating everything I do and hinting at giving me a write up or worse.

Advice for people moving from big 4 to industry? What sort of shift in work culture should I expect? Everything is pretty structured at accounting firms. Trying to prepare myself for the positives and negatives or moving over. Appreciate any experiences or advice you have to share 🤗

Did you ever disagree with your annual review submitted by your manager and is it a good idea to state that in the review before you sign. A paralegal doesn’t like being given instructions on projects and despite my attempt to be kind she still calls my manager to complain. He ended up setting up a call where both the paralegal and I had to give examples of what we did not like in the other. Months later we are working ok and I haven’t been told by my manager that she has called to complain.Exce
