Been working in industry for ~4 years and currently an SEC reporting manager. Make good money/bonus, but just feel kinda stuck. Should I start poking around an interview elsewhere? I love my company, but not sure how I grow much here

Take a step aside and think about what you want out of life outside of career. A job just gives you financial security in the end. When you’re 80 on the deathbed , you won’t be thinking about , “damn, I wish I was at work longer.” Think about a new hobby, adopt a growth mindset in a space outside of work, volunteer at an non profit.

AS is asking about professional growth, not work life balance. Unless you want to do SEC reporting for the rest of your career, I agree you should look for the next step. Do you have a mid-year career conversation coming up? If not, schedule one. Understand from your manager (assume this is director of SEC reporting) and their manager what the company’s plan for succession is and whether there are roles (in controllership or across finance) that make sense to broaden your experiences and further develop. If they give you a blank stare it’s time to look elsewhere.

Hello all,

I'm a PA in the PNW working for a private group staffing ED's in several hospitals. Recently the group has asked the PA's to take on a couple new roles (triaging and rapid track from triage i.e. straightforward ESI 4, 5). With these changes the PA's are considering asking for increased pay in the form of an addition of a COLA (cost of living adjustment) to our normal salary. Was wondering if any other PA's in the ED have these in their contracts and at what rate.

-Thanks

I grew up poor and was obsessed w financial security.

We are happier than ever making less and saving little. I wasn’t there when my mom was sick and died because I was working and my employer didn’t allow me to be in a mental headspace to be a good person for my family. I can never change that but I can be better going forward.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.
