Beyond being everyone's EA, I became the center of operations at an international company, the only one on-site in the office. I was handling everything: sending docking stations, supplies, troubleshooting logins, banking, FedEx, and even visa applications abroad. All this, yet my pay was lower than everybody else's

Time to have a conversation about increasing your compensation to align with the role, responsibilities and value. Sometimes people are clueless if it’s not about them. Also start looking for a new job, it can’t hurt and will let you know the other opportunities available, especially if your conversation goes nowhere.

Additional Posts in EAs / Executive Assistants

I’ve recently started work at a very young tech startup. Coming from a big law background, this was a huge change of pace/environment. I’m having a lot of trouble getting used to how unstructured the startup is. It feels like hire ups give a set of instructions then talk as if they don’t remember, or then decided rules A, B, C and D applies without being clear this was the case. Is this just the general startup environment? If you experienced this before, how did you deal with It?

The EA/Admin profession used to be a gateway for many people to get their foot in the door and grow into different career paths. For most organizations this is no longer the case. Do you see EA’s/Admins growing into different roles within your orgs? If so, what paths are taken? What steps are taken to get there? What I’d like to learn is whether our profession still has the capability to be a doorway or if others are seeing the same things I am; limited opportunities for development.
