I’m an Account Supervisor with 9 years experience in both strategy and account (been playing a dual role my entire career). I’m now fully switching focus over to strategy and have the opportunity to negotiate title & salary. Any advice/recommendations from someone that’s made a similar jump? Making the move because it’s what my agency needs (and what I want) but I’m doing so at a time when Im very close to being promoted from Account Sup > Account Director. What’s a comparable strategy title?

I’d say it’s probably Account Sup = Sr. Strategist, and Account Director = Strategy Director or Associate Director.

Not super familiar with Strategy salaries, but for Account Director with 9 YoE, I’d say it should be about $150-175k.

Account supervisor likely similar to director (not group director) in strategy. I also made the account to strategy change but at a much more senior level so I get the title experience link

I work in FP&A consolidations at a large sell side bank. I moved internally after working in the planning group of a Working Capital Solutions business.

I don’t want to be a robot. Any advice?

I recently lateraled into Big Law. Most of my colleagues are homegrown. My shift did involve a big change in practice area, and there's work that I haven't done before that I now have to do.

But, sometimes I feel stupid here, even for work which I have done previously. It's like I'm unable to understand instructions the first time around. And I have seen my colleagues getting annoyed by that. It's like I've become dumb. In my defence, I could say they're giving half assed instructions.

I don’t want to miss the right person because of my bias, so im wondering how many healthcare related AMs have healthcare/clinical experience… thanks in advance!

Hi guys,

I switched 20 days back to Optum. I have 7 years of experience working as a full stack Engineer, who is passionate working on both front end and back end on latest technologies.

I don't like working here at all, but I am not sure whether moving out again in a month will give bad Impression on my resume. Hence please give me advice on this situation
