A vent: If you take over an existing team, don’t require them to completely stop their work until you get settled in. Also, don’t ignore them and don’t use phrases like when ‘my team gets here.’ If you’re replacing folks or teams w/o giving anyone a chance, just do it when you land - give everyone a severance and don’t drag it out for weeks or months. That’s just cruel and unnecessary.

Yikes! This person sounds terrible

I don’t know if they’re terrible or just really out of touch/self-absorbed. I understand they may be drinking from a fire hose and unable to get to stuff, but I’ve been there and never taken this approach. My team was demoralized and felt devalued from their previous leaders lack of leadership. I got them bought in and productive. They were feeling like progress was slow, but valued. Now, all that progress is lost and - really - we’ve gone further backwards bc they (and I) feel like the many, many hours of overtime and commitment they’ve shown despite their previous poor experience with leadership was never really valued by the co… or they wouldn’t be letting this happen. Whenever they say that, I can’t disagree but I try to put on a brave face and encourage them… I’m running out of brave faces…

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?
