Good luck! Meanwhile I’m dying to go back to school so that I can land a job at MBB

It varies. Most people who stay through initial PL promo and 1-2 cases (e.g. 30 months) will land a Director position.

Those that leave at 24 months tend to get the same exits regardless of if they are promoted to PL or not.

The answer changes if you’re going to be transitioned. I would proactively seek out new opportunities earlier, if I knew I was going to be let go.

Why would the answer change if you’re going to be transitioned? No one from the outside world knows if you left voluntarily or not

Don’t know until you try!

It feels like my pay and title are lower than my scope of duties. I manage Youtube channels and do all strategy, planning, talent management, rework content for socials, reporting, graphic design, + a bunch of other stuff. Do you think I should be something like Video Content Manager? A Strategist maybe? My company doesn't have career pathing & I think they'd be happy to keep giving me more work with the same pay. TIA!!

I would appreciate your perspective.
I am currently working on my MBA in a professional evening and weekend program at a highly accredited university. I am thinking about transferring to a much smaller private online program, specifically because they offer a concentration in organizational health, which directly builds on my doctoral research. Does great depth and specialization outweigh the value of a highly respected generalist degree?

Anyone work at Instrument’s PDX office? Just applied for the Senior Strategist position. Have both UX and Brand experience. What’s it like to work there? Looking to move back to the PNW!

I am currently a medical biller and coder that just graduated. I am currently in an entry level position because I am still studying to get certified. I will have a year's work of exp in July and will sign a contract for another year because my boss is training me in more I don't know.

I'm wondering what the pay is for someone in my position without certification. I live with family and want to afford to move out but I am single and only make $18/hr. Is that standard or am I being underpaid?
