Has it always been this difficult to rise in the industry or is this something that has come about more recently with a bloated job market?

I’m thinking it’s more the hesitation to move people up and pay them more. We’ve had projects getting dropped left and right. Lack of stability makes it very hard to do anything.

Yeah it’s annoying companies are scared of people moving up! But I guess at that point they need to hire more people to replace them.

Think it’s always been difficult but the industry is so unstable at the moment that it’s being made worse. It’s very complicated!

It is! I’m hoping after all the industry shake ups in the last few years things start to settle down a bit more.
