Been with my company 1.5 years out of school in the same position and my manager still refuses to have a conversation about my career trajectory, promotions, pay, and title change.

Been job hunting for 5 months and haven’t found a good fit yet.

End rant.

Lol 1.5 years…

I don’t think OP is wrong here guys. Unless he’s just trash at work. Either way just having a convo around promo is still something his coach could’ve had with him. Also 1.5 yrs at big 4 is a decent time to start talking about it

Keep looking! I left my first job at a year and a half because no conversations were had about career trajectory. Found a new junior position and was promoted after a year- it can be done!

OP…what makes you think you deserve a promotion? What’s Your impact?

I never said I deserve a promotion. But I do deserve to at least have a conversation about these things or else we’re both wasting our time and my capabilities. Isn’t that what this daily 9-5 grind is about?

I’m coming up empty on ideas for them to bridge the gap, but I’m also new to my compliance counsel role, so I would be overjoyed if anyone has suggestions.

Just found out that my favorite aunt, who claimed I was her “favorite” niece, chose to leave all her valuables to her other two nieces who never visited or called her once in the last ten years. My aunt passed away suffering from cancer last year and didn’t have her own kids. I was there by her side throughout her battle. I still wish I had done more, made her life easier. I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.
