I work at a smaller company, and as a result of a project I led not going how they wanted it to (their fault and mine), I am being demoted to a much lower position. This comes after saying "there aren't many opportunities for you anymore." I have worked for almost 4 years as a PM in two different jobs, and both have said there's no advancement for me.

What could I be doing wrong? How can I fix it? What is my next move?

Did anyone make the jump to financial due diligence? If so what do you love/hate about it and what skills were the most important when first starting?

I'll switch to a startup as the only data engineer and will closely work with all the Head ofs + the CTO.

Any advice/books/... on stakeholder management at that level? Especially when things fail/discussing budgets/new hires etc.

Help :(

I'm extremely tech savvy and have a lot of initiative but I am afraid that these companies are put off by how long I've been working assuming that I am a middle-aged woman that is not able to go with the flow.

Do you all see a compelling future in your tax career? I’ll go first, I don’t see a compelling future working for a large PA firm in the long run because you have to work more as you move up. However, I do see a compelling future by using my knowledge and skills to open my own firm/business and work less hours as long as I make enough money which is $75k, or if I do work long hours, it’s because I want to.
