Im at about 1 year at my current firm. When from working at fisher investments where after 4 years full time I was still at an entry level position total comp with bonus and over time was 100k. Wasn’t allowed to switch roles several times due to market conditions and taking parental leave hurt me too. Moved to a small boutique firm that manages 1B, my base salary 100k with bonus its a bit more but I’m feeling stuck again. 8 years exp. in investments and want to be doing/making more. Any advice?

What do you want to be doing that you aren't currently doing? And what do you need to do to get there? Sometimes it's as simple as chipping away at figuring out where you want to go and what you need to do. For me, the biggest thing was figuring out what I actually wanted to do, compared to what I was doing. Once you've got that piece figured out, everything else begins to fall into place.

Have you thought about looking around to see what else is out there? Sometimes when I start feeling stuck, I know it’s time to explore other options.
