Are partner promotion votes generally unanimous? Like if you pissed off some random partner in a different office or practice on something not so major and they hold a grudge, and they vote against you, how does that usually work? Assuming of course you had the support of the partners in your own group. I know this is firm dependent to an extent.

Hi! How much should I make as a dental office manager in DFW? I’ve been working for 15 years at the office and I would like to ask for a raise.

Currently a senior, working hard to promote Manager in a year/two. Firm wants to submit PERM with EB3 senior position and said no promotion should be taken until getting I140. Only less than 2yrs left on H1B. Getting 140 can take very long and don’t want to delay career progress. Is this even right, why cannot file PERM for a future position? What can I do now? Pls advice!

On a fast track for promotion, and also have a good standing/reputation already within my MM bank so far. I also have a complicated visa situation that my bank is handling.
Not closed off but not really set on PE or anything.
Is it still worth starting fresh and likely a delayed promo at an EB?

Looking for senior copywriters for the sweet world of Health and Pharma. Just raise your arm and send me a message.

Can i also ask for ITA promotion, completed 3 yrs in TCS in feb 2022 with A, B, A Band in last three years respectively?

Reviews are coming up and comp will be discussed, and I’m hoping to get a raise. I work at a smaller agency so I’m not sure what the jump will be, but can I request for a bigger increase if I’m not satisfied? Can you argue for inflation? How would you suggest going about it? Thanks!

Hi- I got two raises last year (one with promotion last December). I believe I am underpaid- partly for my own lack of speaking up and negotiating and not making the best career moves.

With current company 3+ years. People are great. Work could be better. 16 YOE. 72k for medcomms. Was told cost of living raise will be in my first 2023 paycheck. But like- I still have 6 months of living to do until then.

Recruiters telling me I should be at least 100k. What would you do?

I’m currently in a lease admin type role, in commercial real estate. I make a base salary of $50.5K with about $9k in bonuses. I’ve continuously received 7-10% raises over the last 3 years. I anticipate getting a promotion this year and would like to get closer to $60k for my base salary. I’m the only person in my role at the company and have been a key person in developing our team as we look to expand. Is this unreasonable? Is there a normal increase given with promotions? Thanks in advance!

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!

How do you express that you don’t want to be scheduled on a client because you feel that you do all of the heavy lifting? I practically have been managing a client group for 3 years and in my first year, i was a new staff straight out of college. I just feel that i shouldn’t be managing the client and that the manager has gotten too comfortable with the client group being a one man well oiled machine. I want to prep and go on about my day. I turned down senior associate bc again, i do not want t

Can’t decide if I’m being ghosted by a partner or if I’m just reading into it. Had a good discussion about a matter that we wrapped up and then I went on vacation. Haven’t gotten a response back (have sent a few emails about staffing on new matters) from the partner in over a week and a half since then and they also haven’t stopped by my office which would typically happen once or twice a week. Thoughts?
