Anyone feel like their learning curve slows or stops once you make partner? Made it 2 years ago and just don't feel like I'm learning much these days - it's all centered on driving new work and no deep topical expertise.

💯

If anything it’s the opposite. My learning curve has gotten super steep, at times it’s hard to keep up!

I keep learning as a partner. I find my core services evolve every 3-5 years.

If you can’t keep learning, you risk being obsolete in a handful of years.

Yes I definitely feel that I've stopped learning. Non Big4 Partner, based in the UK, and my role is now just to keep my team chargeable and sell more work

Inverse for me. Being spread across multiple projects while constantly prepping for various proposals/pitches offers more learning opportunities than iterating on the same deck and model for weeks at a time.

I’ll shed a different light on the topic.

I felt I hadn’t learned anything in years, until I changed jobs. Then I realized that I had learned tremendously.

So today was my first day on a stimulant (diagnosed as an adult), and everyone says its suppose to feel like *boom* magic, or normal (?) , I guess. Knowing that is figurative, what should I actually be expecting? I feel mostly the same, I think, though I came in and actually did started my work today. But I mean, somedays I do that...I just don't want to psyche myself out if I'm expecting too much. Or pscyhe myself in if I actually might not be experiencing what I should.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.

Live in a smallish southern city and my roommate is going to be leaving town before the lease is up. Rather than her getting subleasers, I’m going to take the rent over for the last two months.

I’d like to stay in the same apartment complex but can’t sustainably pay (about) the same amount long term. How much do we think I could try to negotiate rent down? Rent right now would be between $1200-1300 monthly. Start them at $900 and see how it goes? Or lower/higher?
