Hey ladies! Hope your 2025 is off to a fantastic start! As we wrap up the first month of the year, I’d love to hear what’s your top priority or goal for 2025? Are you working toward a promotion or considering a career change? Maybe focusing more on family, personal growth, or something else?

For me, I’m making self-care a priority and committing to getting truly fit. Excited to hear what’s on your mind!

My top priority for 2025 is career growth because I'm looking for a better salary, and so I'm trying to level up my skills. Also trying to be more intentional about networking. Self-care is a great goal too—might need to add that to my list!

That sounds like a great plan! Investing in your skills and networking can open so many doors. Wishing you all the success in your career growth! And yes, self-care is always a great addition—can’t pour from an empty cup :)

I am trying to buy a house next year so my top priority is to to save a down payment for that. Its been really hard to save money but I also realize I spend a lot of money on things I don't really need so I have been working on not spending as much.

Continued self-care is top of my list. Also trying to figure out if a new career is in my future as I'm burned out.

Got a 30% salary bump, via an offer for Senior Consultant S&O from Deloitte. Currently underpaid at EY Advisory. I'm MBA and this year is my promotion year at EY for Manager. What to do? Get demoted and move to D? Or counter at EY? Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.

Hello fishes. I'm an MBA graduate currently working as a digital marketing professional in a mid size consulting firm with 3 years of experience.
I am terribly underpaid in my current org at 5.5 LPA after a recent promotion and annual appraisal. Another mid size consulting firm offered me 7.5 LPA but I am asking them around 9 LPA.
Am I asking too much or shall I take the offer of 7.5 LPA?

Thank you

Joined Ericsson a year ago. Learned new things but not enough. Thinking of leaving it and join some other org. What do you think? I wanted some on-site opportunities but so far nothing.
I know the raise will be in between 5-10%. But the part I missed the most is learning. I can use their portal but that is all theory and can’t do much if they don’t provide the time for it .
Let me know in comments.

Received the ACP and have not seen a raise. Now we have a girl that is getting a 15k raise and going straight from Project coordinator to PM (with one year experience) and no certification. She will now be 5k less than me. If she gets CaPM she gets a 5k raise. Wong to feel slighted?

Well I recently told a guy I have been seeing I have HSV-2. We have not yet been physical but it’s been heading that direction. Man I hate this part - waiting to see what his response will be after he researches and talks to his doctor. I’m on daily meds which help reduce transmission risk. You’d think that since HSV-2 affects 20% of Americans and likely a higher % of gay men, there would be less taboo but it’s hardly ever talked about. Anyone else in my shoes? Or had it disclosed to them?
