You literally said it, the role got too big. Just see why your snapshot review is and take that and move on. Don't dwell on this.

The project is bigger than you man. Don't take yourself too seriously. I'm sure you did a great job

Yeah, a project that is not the right fit happens to everyone and that first project is always tough. Don't be so hard on yourself.

If they give you a good snapshot move on. They are experienced and realize the role may need a more senior resource. Don't take it personally.

It sucks and will affect you at YE but nothing much you can do. Try leaving with bridges intact and move on.

Lol dude, chill.

Don't expect every project to be a good fit. They might love you in your next project and someone might hate you again ... nature of business. Keep your chin up! Always!

^ doubt it will affect you at YE. Especially if you were told you did a great job. It's understandable to wish you were able to handle the role, but there is a reason we aren't all immediately a partner - there is a huge learning curve at every level, and no one expects you to be at the next level until you're the one asking for a promotion.

I feel like every company lies about “working your way up.” You’re never allowed to blatantly say that you don’t like your position and you’d like to transition to HR or Finance. It’s almost as if once you get in claims, you’re stuck.

If you’re a manager and you see an employee that wants to branch out into a different department, why would you keep them boxed in for 2+ years?

Are there some background mechanics that I’m missing?

I interviewed for KPMG on 11/15 for a Senior role and the HR emailed me on 11/16 that everyone liked me but they think I should be hired as an Experienced Associate.

It’s been more than 10 days and multiple follow ups but still no response. I don’t think I was rude while talking to the HR, I just told my current salary and asked for min. that no.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people.

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
