I’m currently at a boutique cybersecurity firm and was recently recommended to apply for a Manager role at PwC cyber risk.
Whats the outlook for this path. Is Partner feasible? What’s expected at M1?

M1 in cyber at the big 4 tends to result in you performing both the manager and senior work instead of mainly managing a team

Partner is likely 9+ years out from M1 assuming 3 to SM, 2 to Director and 4+ to Partner

I rarely ever get mad at work and stay professional, but what is it with IT and logistic service provider that make my blood boil? I am a collaborative person, but I often feel like they just don’t take the time to understand their clients and don’t think proactively ever. Just got off the phone, lost my temper at the CEO of our LSP. Anyone else have the same issues? Any recommendations how to communicate when a service provider clearly is ignoring your requests and hurting your business?

How do you balance between being tough and being nice to colleagues? I found being tough can help get things done efficiently if the message is clearly conveyed and, very importantly, being tough can stop those bullies at work by showing them you are not soft.

How do you handle the balance?
