Hopefully me in a year.

Yes, transitioned into management consulting. It was and is a hard transition, but I don’t regret it.

I transitioned into Controllership group of a major chemical company. It’s a huge change. Yes, no busy season is great, but the majority of the people are here for a job, and not a career. If you just want to get a good paycheck without the extra baggage of Big 4, it’s a nice fit.

I’m already looking back at other big 4 and consulting firms.

I have accepted my sexuality and found peace with the long battle of wanting to be something not what I actually am. On one side I have a lot of pressure around me being gay and trying to get a PR and get out of India, on another side I have a lot financial issues. I’m trying so hard to focus on work and to meet the expected bar for my current role. But the office politics here is toxic and always putting me down. Just wondering whether things will get better ever.

Career dev advice needed. Being offered a promotion (would be reporting to my current skip and managing/growing a team). The role is global subsidiary management/governance. But the work does not appeal to me, I’ve been doing some of it and it’s so much admin and people management. I’m not practicing law at all. Love my current IC role and manager, get to work on strategic transactions and closer to the business. If my goal is head of corp legal one day, should I suck it up and go for it? Thnx!
