Have you ever had reluctance to leave your current role because you really like your manager? I'm considering exploring other roles, but really like my boss, both professionally and personally, and concerned I wouldn't find another leader as good as her. She really understands being a working mom!

The part about her understanding being a working mom is really hard to come by. If she is someone who has your back and offers accommodations, it might be worth sticking around while your kids are young. I don't think an increase in salary or title elsewhere will make up for that kind of support in a manager.

That’s so true. I think I will stay for a bit!

I can totally understand being loyal to someone you work for. But you also have to think about yourself. I've worked in organizations where people have come and gone, and I've learned not to make any major decisions based on working with someone. For all I know, they may get a great offer and leave. So if I ever got a great offer, the right thing to do would be to do what's right for me and leave.

I know, I’m not planning on leaving for a little but that’s good to keep in mind

Yes, that is my situation now. I like my manager a lot but then she isn't great at managing her team. She doesn't like confrontation which means people get away with a lot of things they shouldn't.

It’s so tough

I’m in a very similar boat. I love my manager. She entirely gets what being a working mom is like. But I know I could be making more elsewhere. I think having her as a boss takes precedent; I can’t go somewhere else and be expected to put work over my kids.

It’s so hard to decide what to do and what’s important!

I stayed at a job for over 8 years due to a great manager. In my later years I chose peace of mind over just a larger paycheck.

Sounds like a great choice :)

So, recently got put on a PIP after six months at my new job., two days after I told my boss and HR I recently learned I have a cognitive disability caused by an illness. The PIP was mostly because I forgot some deadlines, but also they said I need to be more professional in emails (even though others use zero punctuation and a lot of emojis. To clients.) and simultaneously ask more questions and ask fewer questions. Should I just assume this is unattainable and look for a new job again?
