Hate my job - I work for a great firm, I earn well and I know a lot of people would kill to be in my position but I hate the travel/poor WLB and I want to get a fully remote job that's lower stress. How soon is too soon to leave? I'm at the 4 month mark, should I wait another 8 months or wait till the market stabilizes a bit?

No rules anymore. Those additional 8 months of misery will be trivial long term (assuming you don't make a habit of short stints).

Thank you

If you really hate it and don’t think you will benefit other than financially from the job then maybe leave now but if you like people and travel somewhat than stay till 1 year

Annual review advice?
I feel very secure in my long-term employment and am doing very well. I work at a midsized boutique with a generally solid culture. I’ve been described as “rising star/golden child” etc., glowing reviews. The thing is that I’ve had a tough year with absent mentors, low interaction/training (there are extenuating circumstances with my SA.) Do I mention what changes I need to see to stay here? Or just go along, accept my good reviews and bonus, and keep my head down?

Feeling really lonely this holiday season and I think it's time for a change. I love my job but I'm realizing I devote too much time to it. I would really like to expand my social circle and potentially meet someone, but I don't really know where to start. Ideally my partner would also work in healthcare, but it isn't a dealbreaker for me. Ladies what should I do?? I'm a 32 year old woman with no kids.
