Hi, looking for some advice here. I've managed to have quite some promotions in the last few years. The pain point : salary Vs my role are really not aligned. Also I've reached the point where no higher career jump is possible without changing countries. I've already done that once and I know the personal cost was high (starting your life over from scratch). I feel like I don't want to go through that again especially not for the jobs they are offering. Have you ever been in this situation? Thx

Wow, that's a lot of changing you've done! I've never been in that position, but I can imagine how draining it must be. If you feel like you've outgrown the situation, would you considering moving on? It's no fun being unhappy at a job but also feeling like there's no room to grow.

Thanks ! I have definitely felt like moving on. The main doubts I have right now are : Is the grass really greener elsewhere? Would I still progress and grow as much in another company? I feel like even though BNP doesn't pay they make you progress well if you are motivated. Also I've worked for people who inspired me and helped me develop myself to the professional I am today. I realize that it's very rare to have a manager so engaged (thus the question of : am I making a mistake to want to leave keeps coming to mind).

If your current employer isn't willing to meet your needs it's time to start looking for a new job. Plenty of great opportunities out there and you don't have to settle for something that's not right for you.

I put my foot down with my GCD, and she supports me, but I would like to come to the table with my own research. Where should I be looking for accuracy?
