I’m a Business Operations Consultant at Accenture Federal Services. I’d love to break into FAANG one day, but I’m worried I’ll be pigeon-holed to operations work which seems to be the lowest paid work/least interesting/least technical. Any advice on bridging the skill gap? Am I more technical than I realize working for a tech consulting firm?

Hello everyone, does anyone have any advice for someone who recently graduated with an MBA from DePaul University and is trying to leave their current job? I am approaching 30 and I am not growing at my current company. I am terrified of being stuck here. I have been applying for months and I haven't had any luck. I understand the market is tough. I have been working on certificates in Tableau and Salesforce to add some luster to my resumé.

I love my boss and my team but hate the work. I've been there for over a decade and the pay is good but the hours and stress are extreme. Been interviewing and although the work seems more exciting, not sure I should give up the safe option. I also have no chance for advancement currently and would be doing the same job till I retire or die.

Hello folks, I’m having a bit of an inner conflict. I have been at my job 4 years come January. The company is great, but the turnover for higher positions is non-existent.

Does anyone here struggle with finding out their purpose and knowing what they want out of their career? Especially anyone in their 30's?

One of my friends recommended I check out this Fishbowl and see if anyone also can relate to that and maybe I can be helpful to anyone here!!
