I keep getting looped into DEI initiatives because I’m one of the few Black scientists on site. I care, but I’m exhausted—and this isn’t even part of my job description. How do you set boundaries on emotional labor without damaging relationships?

Promotion. Frame it that you should be promoted because of the positivity and exposure you bring to the DEI initiatives. They either promote you or stop looping you in

Hey fishies! Been a GVP consultant for 3.5 years now, hard work, tough “in trouble” clients, and just haven’t had the chance to work with a team long term!

Should I accept the new offer ? How do I tell the previous company about this? Also, I’ve already negotiated with the first company and the $115K base is the negotiated salary. I really do not prefer one company over the other. They’re both great! I’m very confused here. TIA🙏
