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 started a new job as an “office manager” at the end of January. The duties seem to align more with those of an EA, and I’m ok with that. Except my boss is a control freak. He scolds me over every little thing, how I load the dishwasher, maybe I didn’t push my chair in. Last week he told me I needed to work on my appearance. I was shocked. I bought all new clothes from Ann Taylor that are perfectly acceptable for business casual. He hates me. Move on ASAP or try to stick it out ?
