My manager quit months ago and I’ve been doing the job of 2 people since, with the intent of being promoted. I was just told that I would not be promoted this year. I am depressed, over worked, feel under appreciated, am definitely under paid, and burnt out. I really like my new manager and am close with her, so I want to I discuss my feelings with her. How do I (politely) explain that I won’t be doing the work of 2 people without proper compensation?

International vs. PCS internal and Exit Opportunities. — I’m a S2 in ATL working in PCS and in international/crossborder for private clients. I need some guidance determining whether I would be better off staying in PCS or declaring a specialty in int’l/crossborder work. I don’t see myself in B4 forever, and it seems the int’l work would limit exit opps in the future. However, PCS exit opps aren’t appealing to me either: family office or wealth management. — any help or insight is appreciated.

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything. I was looking at both SHRM-CP and SPHR. Everyone that I have spoken to has the SHRM, but that’s also only looking at individuals in a small geographic footprint and within 3-4 different companies. I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

I had a lot of trouble at work this year. Was depressed and had poor project experiences. So I wanted an exit and i got it. A good one.

I also got an offer from a more prestigious consulting company (won’t name it), which based on this year and also what everyone is telling me, would end poorly. I had always wanted to work at this place and applied many times over the last decade.

I know this is insanely privileged and I’m very fortunate. But I’m also sad to recognize my limitations.
