Are you on PIP? What have yor reviews been like? Have you spoken to your people consultant?

*doesn't look

No there is not such thing as PIP at my firm, but compared to other associates in my group, my schedule is always the emptiest one

I got good reviews from last busy season but during my summer ebp engagement, i kinda screwed up on one thing and my senior, who previously thought i had potential to be senior, got super pissed and he told me i need to try my hard to make a good impression this upcoming season

Good to know im not alone @tax operations mgr 1

Is your senior an ass? I'm sure you're fine, if they already thought you were ready they'll likely give you a try at least one busy season as a senior

Geez. I could barely make sense of your post. You'll need to improve your writing skills if you want to be employable. This might sound mean but people get frustrated when they have to reread something three times to get the gist of what you're trying to communicate.

No explanation just kicked out. Advice?

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.
I have been working as a data scientist since 2018 & have been the bread winner. I have neither been under a proper mentor nor with a team of peers from my field to help me out. I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.
