Constantly frustrated with my team and I’m losing motivation to go to work. Starting to think it’s time to leave but I’m always told leaving before senior is career suicide, any advice?

Not saying I agree, but I think the interpretation is that you couldn’t cut it and weren’t there long enough to build the skills that being with a top firm would normally ‘count’ for on a resume.

Hey folks, I want to exit into industry by year end, and ideally I’d like to target associate director or SM roles at biopharma (thinking corp strategy, Portfolio planning, BD&L). I have roughly 2 YOE with a PhD. A large proportion of the companies I am interested in (cell and gene tx) are based in Boston, but I’m wondering how the opportunities are in New York, since I might be moving there to be closer to my S/O. Will I have more or less options, and will remote options be here to stay?
