It might suck your soul out but if you can be really disciplined with finances and be a shell of your former self for a couple of years it honestly could be worth it and pay off in the long run. I don’t regret it but I don’t...not regret it 😅 it’s a sacrifice for sure.

Senior engineer making 135k and I was offered a promotion to engineering manager after completing a development plan. Near the end of the plan and I expect compensation talks to start soon. Based on some research around Boston and my role in the company, I feel 165k plus 10-15% bonus is fair. Nonetheless, first time going through something like this and asking for thoughts and comments. Thanks!

We have a 2100 billable req which I’m barely hitting. We also get paid below 6 figures. I learned that the new associates came is at least $10k over us. I graduated 2020–but 1st firm job. Advice?
