Anyone have recommendations in improving general ME knowledge? I am a mid-career ME (~8 years) with an MSME but I still feel as if I am lacking in my general engineer knowledge. I have a coworker whom is incredibly bright and someone I look up to. He has like 15 - 20 years on me, which I understand is significant, but if I want to build that base knowledge like his where is a good place to start? Rereading my school textbooks? Any advice is helpful.

Posted in another bowl but and looking for recommendations - 5+ YOE, Salesforce, techno-functional SA, soft-HCOL area, and might be looking for an exit op at Salesforce or industry. TIA

Salesforce Commerce Cloud - what are your thoughts and is it worth it to specialize in the platform?

Hello! I have a two part question: 1) is it worth it to obtain an SHRM specialty credential if I don’t have the broader SHRM certification? 2) has anyone gotten the People Analytics or Talent Acquistion credential? If so, how valuable was it from a learning perspective? Do you feel it significantly contributed to your knowledge in either area? Thank you!

Anyone moved from consulting to an internal role? How did you find it. I’m fed up of consulting

So, I've realised there's a problem with developers, a lot of them are coders, not engineers. And another issue, is that, companies don't really care about their progression as far as I'm aware, so what did you guys do in your own time to transition from being a coder to an engineer?

What are resources to become a better strategist?

What kind of roles do you guys recommend for a pharmacist trying to pivot into pharma? Where can you go to see all the different types of roles available?

I am project manager in clinical research industry (CRO). After earning PhD, I gave up my science dream to take a more stable job. After slowly climbing the ladders, I feel like I finally got a seat at the table. Half the days I like the hustle, but now I miss being creative. I want to take more brainstorming, decision making responsibilities but I don’t see that in the career path for PM. Career path usually goes like this- Sr PM, Director, Sr Director, and so on. But all do same work.

Got a 30% salary bump, via an offer for Senior Consultant S&O from Deloitte. Currently underpaid at EY Advisory. I'm MBA and this year is my promotion year at EY for Manager. What to do? Get demoted and move to D? Or counter at EY? Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.

Any other alternative do I have to claim HRA? Your inputs are welcome here

I asked for a raise in April 2022 after three years with my company. Positive feedback since day one. Learned I was making less than peers at other asset managers in NYC with less experience (14 years). Latest conversation was with HR about how they calculate salaries. I’ve been asked to provide examples how my role has changed since I started to justify the increase. Is this normal? Or is this just their way of denying my request?
