I’m really struggling. A person I manage became a mom earlier this year and of course I extended leeway when she came back from maternity leave because she’s got a lot on her plate. I have to do twice as much or pass to my already overworked team to compensate, but I thought it would get better.

Recently her father passed and she (very understandably) took a week and a half off. Upon return, she is rarely online, misses meetings and leaves emails/DMs unanswered (cont comments)

Talent retention | There has been alot of people leaving Agency life for other careers which offer more work life balance or benefits or even just going solo. Your thoughts? How long do you plan to stay in this field ?

Okay, it’s time to stop putting on a face about this. I love my boyfriend so much, but covid is ruining us. We are both still WFH and argue every few days about the dumbest stuff. My and his mental health are both diminishing and it feels like an impossible trench to dig out of. My stomach hurts every time we fight and I (independent of him) feel so stuck in this horrible global crisis. I don’t want to lose him, but I need to figure out how to dig us both out of this unsustainable mental state.

Any insight into Jackson Lewis NYC office? Compensation, billable hours, WLB? I would be a 2-3 year

I hope he’s in as much pain as I am. The way he ended it was so cold and selfish and unlike how he was any other time with me. It was like a personality switch. I’ve never been so wrong about someone. I’m not sure how to process or recover from that part of it.

I feel burnt out by how ruthless the tech industry in US is, but I also know I’m making much more money than people outside of tech or consulting.

How do you adjust your WLB?
I’m so burnt out that I wish I could yell at people who were not kind or supportive to me, but those people often unfortunately were in position of power.
I don’t like unkindness, but my anger is just very bottled up…
What can I do to stay level-headed even when the other side is disrespectful?

HBS MBA program. How did you crack the nod?

Currently C level (target promo next summer). Been mostly on finance transformation projects. Worked in strategic finance before that at a f500 healthcare company.
What roles/levels would I be a good candidate for at FAANG/Microsoft/other Big Tech?
No hard technical skills (outside of financial modeling).
I’m also studying for GMAT as t15 MBA is a consideration right now, so I could also try to make the switch after that.

It's that time...🦃

Ways to overcome fear of public speaking? At times I stutter when I introduce myself and am sick of it

In the current company I work for, it seems like in order to get promoted, you need to not only do what's within your job description well, but also do things that are past your job description so that they see your interest & understanding of other avenues, and THEN they'll promote you to a management role. Is that the standard way of getting promoted in all fields? Doing your job plus more until youre promoted to just do the 'more'?

We’ve all had highs and lows of managing people. The worst offense tho, as I’ve experienced, is when employees don’t have an ounce of self-awareness to realize they are not as valuable as they might imagine.
How do you deal?
