Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you’re doing well. I’m looking for advice on how to speak to my manager regarding team structure and pay. Here’s some background, they recently hired a male Sr. Brand partnership manager, which I just found out he was senior today, and has yet to inform me on my new roles as responsibilities with him joining the team. I’ve been at this company for over 5 years, pushed through a $2M investment, and helped them IPO. I don’t feel like I’ve properly compensated (cont.)

Nor prepared to grow professionally here. Can anyone share any advice?

Find the posting for the Sr. Brand Partnership Manager and see if your duties align with what was hired. If so, have that conversation with proof of your contributions for the majority of the points outlined in the job rec. If they don't, find a Sr. Brand Manager job rec on the market and do the same thing. Once done, go to your manager and layout the evidence and the requirements, ask for a title change and additional compensation. If they say no, start looking for a new job (if that's what you want to do) as it's unlikely that they will promote you in general.

If you get a new job, you can use it as leverage to get a pay raise, or you have a new job. Win win! :D

I'm doing everything in my power to not quit without another job lined up, and every interview falls through. I'm overwhelmed by my clients, I've had enough corporate koolaid for a lifetime, I could not care less about what I do, and I've started exhibiting destructive behaviors at work but keep getting told I'm doing great.

If I'm going to be stuck here, clearly my attitude is the main problem. How have you learned to find joy in your job? What makes you feel like you matter here? Why stay?

I received a job offer for a PM position with a base of $125K and a 10% bonus, fully remote and ok benefits. The parental leave is pretty bad, just FMLA and STD/LTD so the most I’d get is 60% of my salary for 12 weeks. I’ve cancelled most of my interviews except for one where the pay is $135K, 20% bonus, hybrid schedule, good benefits and 16 weeks fully paid parental leave. I’d like to start my family in a year or two - is it better to take the remote gig or the hybrid role with full paid leave?
