I've been an individual contributor for 4 years in Tech, have 8 years of experience total. I'm finding it difficult to make the management transition despite having management experience, performing beyond expectations, and having a genuine passion for enablement and development.

Hi, I just finished my undergrad, Bsc Management, but realized that I want to work with human capital consulting. what is the best path to take? 1.

I've risen in my org to a Sr. Director level running a virtual BU, but seem to have maxed out my title and responsibility despite a history of exceptional results & solid relationships. A mentor ~3 years back was pushing me for VP, but left for a CRO role and since have been stagnant despite doing my best work. I know I'm paid well and have an excellent brand, but feel like I could be doing more. I'm also highly visible making a search externally difficult. Any ideas on breaking out?

Hii
I am a CSE fresher currently in 4th year from a Tier 3 college.
I have got job offers from Persistent Systems, IBM, Capgemini, Wipro & Harman International.
I need a suggestion on whether I should pursue my career in a PRODUCT BASED COMPANY(like Harman) or a SERVICE BASED COMPANY(the rest 4)?

The packages are pretty close.
Harman=(5LPA+50k)
Persistent Systems =(4.71LPA)
As we are always cheered to join Product based companies(like Google, Microsoft) but how good is joining Harman-like PBC?

My manager casually threw out that she had an exec tell her it’s fine if she wants to close my division down next year. We are a niche team in a large company. I asked her to clarify as I am worried about my team (and me) she said we would be “well taken care of” as in receive severance…she was so casual about it and said she didn’t know what she would do - we’re performing well, but it’s a small market. What do I do? Warn my team? Look for jobs? I have been here for 20 years w/niche skills…

Helping current employers prep job spec for my replacement. Salary was a factor for me leaving but minor relative to other things.

During editing reviews a top leader added a line stating base pay and bonus. The base pay is significantly higher than what I’m on (I’m below market average). Been with them for nearly 8 years and been referred to as a top player (I carried out multiple roles to get biz through covid).

Is this normal? Should I bring this up?

Interview went well, Total 7 ppl interviewed me. I accepted offer verbally. Then I got promoted and I shared that to recruiter and my current compensation and offer are same. I shared my difficulty to recruiter as it will be a lateral move. He said he will get back to me in 1 day. Its been a week I haven't heard back.
1.
What should I do. (I am excited for this new role also extremely happy with my current employer)
2.
Is it normal for recruiter to not keep their words about communication?

Has anyone here tried psilocybin to treat depression? I’ve taken zoloft for years and it worked until it didn’t. Switched to escitalopram and same thing../ I’ve read great research done using mushrooms and I’m curious, I’m done with the pills

I desperately need out of consulting and back into a normal schedule and routine. I haven’t redone my resume in awhile. Would anyone be willing to assist me in revamping my resume or review it soon

How do you realize you’re stressed? How do you recognize the feeling of stress? How would you describe it?

Sometimes I don’t consciously recognize it, but when I’m truly stressed I start getting headaches that goes on for months.

I still f-up things that I have been doing for years due to anxiety. Simple things like introducing myself. I have to present but don’t want the attention probably, so I ramble through things quickly

When anxious, time seems to speed up which makes one perceive time constraints when tackling tasks.

When not anxious, an hour feels like eternity and sufficient time to knock out tasks.

What are your techniques to slow down time?

Mine is to meditate, pop a klonopin, and write in a journal. This 30 minute routine quiets the mind and removes distractions.

First day on sertraline (/Zoloft). Dr said might feel nauseous and agitated. Was OK most of the day but now I’m in bed I’m feeling restless, tired, and a bit short of breath.

Ever feel the loneliest when you’re in a room full of people/hanging with a group?

Anyone else dealing with eating disorders/what did you do about it? Have had them ever since university and consulting (expensed meals, little sleep, stress) made it way worse.

Has anyone dated an ex with narcissistic tendencies and/or experienced trauma bonding? Trying to work through this and not get sucked back it but it’s tough and distracting.

What are the one or two things you do to manage your depression on an ongoing basis? So f’n tired of therapy, meds, etc and still not being better. I really want my life back.

Heading to a law school reunion of sorts and anxious about the brag fest that will ensue, along with the prying questions about how well others are doing in comparison. I have not proven as successful (big law/loans paid) as some of my colleagues and I can’t avoid this event. The anxiety is creeping. How would you handle it?

How do people connect?! To clients, friend's parents, other girls, etc. To me, it looks daunting! I TRY but can never do it, especially not if I don't live with them

Always struggled w depression somewhat and go through low days where it’s hard to get out of bed. Usually spaced out though. But COVID has made this worse. Been very unable to put in consistent work. I live w my fiancé and he just told me he’s been thinking hard how to proceed w the relationship because he is brought low also by these struggles of mine and doesn’t want a partner who struggles w this (lazy wo willpower - paraphrasing). I don’t know what to do. He’s mentioned these things (cont)

How do you find a psychiatrist? Insurance website? Referral from friends? Online reviews? Saw someone and received initial anxiety diagnosis but we didn't really "click"
