Anyone ever work with a male surgeon who treats you (M or F) like a nurse / surgical service tech on a project? Had a bad experience and am told this is par for the course working with surgeons.

Haha oh yes. I was a nurse for 12 years...surgeons are notoriously like that. Don’t take it personally

SA1 - curious to know how you made the transition from nursing for 12 years to consulting? I’m kind of in the same boat (was in Healthcare for 6+ years) and still haven’t quite figured out how to leverage my healthcare experience in consulting...

If you can, use it to your advantage. I have learned a ton from physicians over the years by acting overly naive and they are more than willing to explain...everything.

Depends on your knowledge base. If you expect a surgeon to respect your chops, you have to understand theirs. He/she is likely board certified which is no easy feat. Tell me their specialty and I will send you fun facts to dazzle in front of them. They usually respond well if they know you care about their patient population.

I recently got a job offer from a company I used to work for that has a great work/life balance and culture but has a slower track to get promoted. My current employer has a not great work/life balance but it’s much easier to get promoted. Currently 5 years into my career currently bouncing between a project lead and a discipline manager… it’s a decent pay bump- 30%. But is it worth giving up the future potential advancements ?

2. I was told that they’ll give me 15 mins to prep after the case study is shared live, would you suggest I build a 1 pager or is that not required?Google

So about quiet quitting, at another job I was in I felt I was getting more and more tacked onto my job and picking up the slack of everyone else. I told my boss that I was doing work that was in someone else’s job description and it would be nice if they could help me out by doing their job. He told me, “But you’re so much better at it.” Looking back, I think the whole team was quiet quitting and he was resting on me and so I real quit. What are ya’lls thoughts? Have you ever done it?

I remember when I first started working on my thesis project. My adviser asked me to get some funding for it, but he didn't give me any advice about how to do that. He just told me that if I wanted money for my project, I'd have to go through some kind of committee process and submit an application for funding from them. Sure enough, after weeks of writing applications and waiting around for responses from the committee members (who were always too busy), I eventually got approved for funding!
