Just a question for those here. What does anyone see as a job outlook for a pharmacy technician that has 15 years of experience and is studying for the CPhT? I would like to return to 100% remote work and, understandably, most job postings that are about my caliber are requiring the cert. I am thinking of possibly pivoting into an IT job that would be fully remote later on down the road, but I’m interested in seeing what is possible now (and an average pay) for someone with my experience.

I am currently having thoughts about how I should advance my career, and which path I should take.

I currently am compensated about 250k TC as a Senior Staff Engineer. I am wanting to reach for double, not necessarily any time in the near future (my goal is ~5 years). I currently have 10 years of experience. I feel that I am already pretty close to the pay ceiling for my role.

Looking for some hope/anticipation/motivation: Is it possible to move into private equity in-house with several years of non-practice industry experience and 3-5 years of traditional practice from a boutique firm?

I got hit with a Covid layoff. How discriminating should I be about my next step? I've got about a decade of experience in big law, general commercial lit. I've wanted to go in house for a few years, but positions for pure litigators are few and far between. I'm applying for in-house and firm positions, and also a few firm administrative roles that I don't want to do. Should I just take anything I can get? I'm ok on savings, just worried about long term career impact.

Been in media for 3 years (social to be exact). Now I feel like I want to join a startup where I can drive impact and growth. Had a realization the other day that I’ve always enjoyed being the scrappy underdog . Anybody know a good way to go about finding a startup job ?

Any suggestions would be great. Also, how are the hours?

So, here it is. I was having joining on last week October as a senior analyst data science in Tiger Analytics. Today I got an call from HR that due to economic recession we are going to delay your date of joining by 2 months. My notice period was of 3 months. So total duration would be 5 months. Infact even after that too they didn't send me revised offer letter. There is something wrong with this company.

Senior 1 here- I have recently been getting severe episodes of panic attacks every morning before sitting down to work. Unusually anxious this busy season (probably due to be assigned on a huge re estate fund client which i am definitely incapable of managing in addition to smaller clients)?

what does it mean if most of your audit engagements assignments are with the same mgr? is there any way an associate can ask to work with a more variety of mgrs? if so, how?

Got laid off due to COVID and have been struggling to find a job. I wasn’t happy and my mgmt sucked so this is a good thing. Now I really hate the idea of working for a company. I know everyone works and I’m not a genius who can just start a scalable biz. But I just can’t get my head around the idea of doing something I hate for a paycheck. All these years of busy seasons burnt me out. Struggling in between doing something I enjoy for less pay and taxes for more pay.
