Does anyone know if BCW has a gym stipend as part of their benefits.

What do Director salaries start out from at Guidehouse?

I'm currently a recruiter, with an HR background looking to make a slight career pivot. As an introvert, the recruitment aspect has been draining however, I do enjoy the non-phone screen aspects of it. I enjoy consulting with managers and looking at comp, internal equity and providing data to my hiring managers. I would love to know if there is anyone that has done a similar pivot (whether it's recruiter, HR generalist, etc.) to a Comp Analyst and what that transition has been like.

How do senior leaders/ executives manage their career and find the next opportunity?

We’re in the process of redesigning our leadership and executive compensation structure. Both the CEO and CFO have their thoughts based on the seat. I'm exploring bottom-line and outcome-based bonus structures currently. Any feedback, views, questions, or advice?
(if it matters, we are a $600M per year company in the construction industry).

Help me understand why executives lie and gaslight so often. I’m new to this and don’t feel comfortable doing it.

Hi all, I’m just 3-4 years into my career and I aim to become a CEO of a mid-sized company.

Sincerely looking forward to your guidance🙏🏻

How long on average have you all stayed in one position? How about tenure at each company?

Does anyone have recommendations on an approach to get frequent feedback on employee sentiment across your teams?

I lead a global team of ~70 and growing. Most of the team is deployed to major company initiatives and pressure is high. We do big annual employee surveys, but I'm looking for good ways to get more regular feedback at scale.

I am a Senior Project Manager for a custom estate builder. We build homes over $50mm in construction costs for the ultra wealthy. I have been with this firm for 15 years and make $350K annual. There is only one partner and the sole proprietor who is essentially retired. They split ~$5MM in profits per year. I have reached the limit on title / career progression in my company - nowhere upwards to go. I highly doubt they will ever partner anyone else into the business. Do I leave?

Working my way up the corporate ladder. I have so many thoughts on leadership and want to initiate changes in the departments I work with. But at this level it's so difficult. Ppl are so resistant to change.

My key learning thus far in my career: Noone gives a shit about your ideas unless you're a head honcho. Real change is brought about from a position of authority.

Got an opportunity for a Director role that will oversee a new and major changes across the org but won't have people under me. Should I be worried?

What’s the best way of encouraging young team members to actually disconnect during their time away? I have some individuals that will not take actual vacations, they say, “I’ll have my laptop and phone”. My response is “please leave your laptop at home and turn off teams and outlook phone notifications. If there is an emergency and we have a question only you can answer, we can call or text. we’ve got this.”

And then they teams checking in 2 days later 🤦🏼‍♀️

How do you let go of the need to be liked by subordinates? I have a people pleasing streak.

I’ve been a mid-level manager (Sr Operations Manager) for the last three years. Been in my industry for 10 years. I feel I have plateaued in my career path. I’m trying to promote to a Director of Operations role in house and looking at outside opportunities as well. I feel like it’s taken longer to obtain this position than my previous roles. Any advice from Sr/Exec Management to be more self aware and fill in the holes to finally hit the finish line?

USA based. Looking for Total Comp and cash targets/benchmarks.
