I just landed my first professional job! It took me months to get this offer. I was starting to regret my decision to go to college. When I start this job next week, how can I create a great impression with my manager and coworkers?

Go into the office everyday… regardless if it’s required or not…

Spend time getting to know everyone in the office… schedule some 1:1 time with your peers, level up and level down; as well as dotted line peers…

Go buy a new car… something that’s way out of your budget… it will keep you focused and driven… otherwise you can’t get to work…

That’s what I did and it worked out pretty well… 34YO M, DFW Market, Married w/ 2 kids.. HHI >$1MM.

I’m procrastinating with life errands and feeling the burn. I do the biggest bare minimum at work and I’m pretty sure people are started to notice. Everything is making my anxiety and overthinking worse.

Kornacki and King are pulling entry level consulting hours and King is of advanced age. How long can they do this? Kornacki is like the wunderkind Associate everyone wants on their team and to shove in front of the client. King is the analyst that the smarter managers choose for the team because he is quiet and confident. He gets promoted first. Kornacki cuts ties and goes to Big 4 for a salary increase.

I’ve noticed on Glassdoor, salaries for my level (Director) are higher than my base but have similar bonus opportunity. At what level of pay gap would you push or make a stink? In hindsight I should have pushed more during the hiring process. At 160k base now, seeing ranges in the 170s to low 180s. These are specific to my current company.
