Hey folks, I’m about a year into my new SE career and looking to continue to invest in professional skills. I’ve obviously been thrown into the fire learning the sales side of things, but what areas (technical skills, certs, books, etc.) you all would recommend I look to invest in? I’ve been looking at some beginner coding boot camps and scrum product owner certs, but interested in what you all have done to further advance your career

virtual onboarding and Im sitting here in our breakout group bored outta my mind and our team is supposed to be working through some excercise about propsal metrics, “Go Opportunities” and budget stuff

no clue or interest in this at all. Its boring me to death. I didnt goto business school. Just have a bachelors 🤣 and security certs
Im in cyber and I’m just ready for this to be over and to get to technical stuff. Left the defense dept and Im getting a rude awakening about consulting 😴💤

I have 10 years of experience in IT industry, working with Cognizant since beginning. Now, I feel I am stuck with repetitive clients and projects and would like to explore other company's culture and it's way of working. I would like to progress my career in technical side.

What are the day to day responsibilities of a PM at a design agency? Is it a chilled role or not? I’m trying to get a better understanding of it.

Guess I’m trying to figure out what the role would be like if I left consulting to be a project manager full time.

What are some options outside tech consulting for someone who is an associate manager? I just don’t know what else I could pivot to down the road once I’m burnt out.

Is it a fail of character leaving biglaw? I want to leave, but despite the constant stress and suffering, I can’t avoid feeling like it’s my fault or that maybe I’m over exaggerating how I feel.

Is there future after quitting biglaw so young?

Struggling with eating disorder thoughts now that busy season has started and there’s SO much food around all the time. I’m so anxious. Does anyone have any advice?

Stress is causing a massive flare-up of racing thoughts recently. I feel like it's been at least a week or two since I last was able to completely clear my mind.

Anyone else struggle with this/have a solution?
