How do you work with people who think you are not smart? For the next few months, I have to work with 2 people who have almost gaslighted me into thinking I don’t have substance. I’m looking for a new job but not as actively as I should.

So I recently left a really fun job where I was ridiculously underpaid for a very very boring job that gave me a pretty big pay rise. I thought I could push through how boring it is but nah, not really. Happy I made this choice because it’s a big client but not sure I can do it for long. How long would you give it before quitting? I’m really trying to make the switch to experiential/PR so any help/lead on agencies is appreciated 😶

It’s a matter completely unrelated to my company and I have malpractice insurance through the nonprofit organization associated with the case.

No one has asked me specifically about pro bono stuff at my company - if I know there’s no conflict of interest, is this something I should disclose? To whom should I disclose this?
