I feel like I’m never going to be satisfied with my comp. Thinking of jumping already to a 3rd company all within 2 years. Sucky thing is, I’m really enjoying what I’m doing right now.

Sounds like you need to prioritize. There are periods in life where growing your income needs to be the focus and in other cases learning more or enjoying the job/ environment are priority.

Decide where you are now, then prioritize and move (or not move) based on that. Good luck ❤

Similar to working out- once you start working out, you’ll never be satisfied with how you look.

How much money is at stake with this potential new jump? If you have a FAANG offer that will double your compensation, take it. If you want to leave a role you like at Deloitte for $10k more for the same work at another big 4, stay where you are.

Similar work for 40-50k more

Instead, why don’t you get an new job offer (ideally increase in pay) and try to get a counter offer to retain you from your current company?

Any advice on how to handle an ECD in charge of your salary who says the only way to get a promotion or even a COL raise of any kind is through winning an award? Not consistently reliable and solid performance. Not keeping the client happy and profitable. “You either win an award, or all ya get is to keep your job.”
And yes, I’m aware leaving is always an option, but eager for any other advice how to navigate.

Any black women here 40+ and still senior manager or lower? I’m wondering how you feel about the glass ceiling and the progress there is for us in corporate. Do you feel it’s worth the fight and stress to move up? A part of me just want to go through the actions to get the check and spend it wisely, but my competitive/ego side feels I needs a high title because the culture says I should have one by now.

I’m in my 2nd year of practice, never heard such a thing. I’ve actually split the cost before! Curious for insight on this…
