My advice is ask yourself if you enjoy working in Audit and are willing do undergo this busy season again if the answer is no. I would say network your butt off I have been fortunate to network with a Principal in Audit this person knows me by name and she got promoted to OMP of my office and I am only a associate l.

Take some time off to unplug completely and recharge

I would take some time to recharge. Your health is so important.

You have to find time for yourself. Especially if you’re a high performer because they’ll just keep dumping things on your plate. You have to make you a priority.

My company is in need of a update online, could use your opinions! We need to better showcase our culture (caring, supportive, fun, intelligent IT industry leaders) as well as diversity. We are predominantly white still but making strides to improve here. What’s the best way to approach? I don’t want to seem disingenuous or that we are singling out our diverse employees (asking for photos). We have a remote and on-site workforce about 350+ EEs. Non white EEs make up about 35% of the company rn.
