Hello,

I have joined an investment company very recently -4months ago -as a sustainability analyst. Before, I was in academia undertaking research in sustainability.

I am now realising that this role will not meet my ambitions neither on the sustainability nor on the technical side as the only thing that the company is interested in is carbon numbers, nothing strategic .

I am now wondering whether I should look for something else or would this be bad for my cv? (I am still on probation)

Has anyone made the transition from non-profit and small firm practice to federal government, big law, in-house? I’m a special education parent attorney at a small firm and I’ve spent my legal career in the education and juvenile areas of the law working for 2 non-profits before ending up at the firm. However, I’m just exhausted, unmotivated, and and looking for a change. At this point (6.5 yrs of practice), is that type of transition even possible or am I stuck due to the practice area?

Currently a staff in audit - 6 months in. Glad to be learning a lot, and have had a generally positive experience at the firm other than a few interactions, some tough busy season nights. Really been intrigued by TAS/M&A, however, and had a few convos with a senior in TAS i know at the firm. It’s closer to what I studied, but don’t know how to make the jump as it seems an internal transfer could take 6+months/senior rank and a lot of convincing. Is it better to jump firms/has anyone done this?
