EY2 If they’re lacking foundational knowledge then they should spend time out of their day outside of work to learn and try to get better. Whether they eat hours or not isn’t the point, and certainly not what I wrote. The point is to become better. If OP needs extra training then they need to be proactive. Everyone learns at different speeds, and if your learning timeline isn’t aligned to your employer’s because you need more time then you need to do something about it or risk getting fired

same. I’m hoping to find a new job soon cause this ain’t it

I'm a marketer and I'm having a hard time getting my clients to listen to me.

I have been in marketing for 10 years now. I've worked with hundreds of clients and have been able to increase their sales by over $1 million each year.

But every time I go into a meeting with a new client, they ignore everything I say. They just want to talk about their product. They don't seem interested in learning how to market it better.

I left Audit at a midsize firm to join KPMG erp implementation consulting about 6 months ago. So far they seem to only want to staff me on projects with a heavy focus on technical accounting and audit. Spoke to a lot of others who have left and seems like being pigeonholed or staffed on projects not related to the actual core work of the practice is the common reason. I've been on the fence about whether I should stay and hope to be staffed on better projects in the future or leave soon...
