Been looking for B4 exit opportunities, but when I find opportunities I always start 2nd guessing myself on whether to leave. Then if I pass on a opportunity (because comp / role isn’t a fit or they pass on me), I feel defeated and keep thinking “can’t wait to leave.” Ultimately, while I think I could make Partner at B4, I really don’t want the “always on call” and daily grind that comes with it. Anyone else have this inner conflict that feels like a lose-lose?

Good point lol. And if I fall short and become a B4 Director, I can look forward to the staff I’m currently training up to make Partner and be my boss technically. Win win.

Similar thoughts here. After the last year. Not certain of opportunities where I am but don’t want to settle now.

Why am I being iced?
