I have one pro bono case that I kept when I left my firm to go in house. It’s a matter completely unrelated to my company and I have malpractice insurance through the nonprofit organization associated with the case. I’ve made clear to my client that I’m repping this client in my personal capacity. 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?

Disclose to your supervisor. The biggest issues here will likely be conflicts and malpractice insurance.

I planned to disclose but no one asked me and some of the stuff in orientation suggested that the company might not care

Would you continue into the nursing leadership ladder or go into health informatics (which also has leadership!)?

I asked for a raise in April 2022 after three years with my company. Positive feedback since day one.
