If she’s of a higher level than you, definitely do not date. But if you’re both in the same level/years of experience, maybe. Still, not a very good idea to mix business and pleasure.

If she’s a higher level I say that’s more the reason to go for it. Might end up with a promotion out of the deal.

Follow me for more bad advice.

Are you two friendly at work? If so, as long as you are both single and neither of you is the other’s boss, I think it is ok to proceed with caution. Keep in mind that if things don’t work out, the aftermath may be messy.

I married a former coworker. They worked in a different department and the only reason our paths crossed is a mutual friend in a 3rd department worked with both of us and organized a post work happy hour.

Before we started dating I asked myself "there are only 2 outcomes. We're either getting married or breaking up. Likely we will break up. If we break up can I still come to work and do my job?" We were so far removed I thought it was fine. We've been married for 5 years.

So do I. But the rank gap makes any advances inappropriate. 😢
