Is leaving audit without a job lined up and training myself on some relevant analyst skills to try to land an industry position a terrible idea? I don’t see myself building up SQL, Python, or modeling skills with my work hours and not sure if trying to do that would help land a non-accounting role in industry.

Job base salary presented by HR during screening interview was $130-$145k. I have 3-5 years more experience and more education compared to the posting requirements (BA required, I have a MS). I love the position and what it entails, but was hoping to reach $150-$160 base salary. If offered the position, is this a reasonable ask? This is for big pharma, data analytics in New England.

I’m sending an email to female partner in a leadership position (never met) to set up a meeting to introduce myself. My plan is to send her a short email, giving some background about myself and let her know I want to connect to introduce myself. During the meeting, I plan to discuss my key projects, ask about her vision and how I can help her/which initiatives could participate. I’m up for Sr Mgr promotion and making a good impression is critical. Any tips? anything else I should prep?

I feel I am kinda lost about to do next after working in the agency analytics world for 5 year. Definitely want to switch to tech as the pay is higher and the work looks more interesting to me. Couple of paths that I have been considering: data scientist, data engineering, product analytics. Would like to be in more technical roles for the next couple of years. And would maybe like to be in product manager/manager role after that. What type of role would be the next best step.

Might get hate for this, but has anyone struggled with fertility, been through the rollercoaster of everything up to IVF, be at the point of starting and start confronting that maybe it’s not what you want (while still feeling like you’ll regret not trying?). In an exciting phase of life with my career and moving to our dream town and generally love life. I’m 36 and wondering if I want this anymore but deeply scared of the regret…

Does it bother anyone else when a partner won't let you get a word in during a client meeting? I pitched the case and we were told that the client chose us in significant part because of my relevant technical expertise. Further, the client has specifically requested that I attend the client meetings. Not really sure the best way to manage the situation.

Halloween inspired me, so here's a scary thought. Wouldn't career building from IC to say CTO be that much easier where tech isn't the mission?

If you can navigate the politics, the opportunities for impact seem remarkable. Prove yourself with a few successes, network to impress just one exec tired of being in the stone age, and wham--you're a director with all the opportunities to grow this thing into your own org. Automate all the things. Learn on the way, obviously. Next thing you know: CTO.

So I slipped up in a conversation last week, and now people have figured out I am looking elsewhere. Had one Partner call me all sad to even hear I'm unhappy. PML and I are meeting today to discuss.
Do I play along with the possibility of internal transfer opportunities that they want to discuss with me, or just outright say no and leave when the time is right. I'm leaning towards playing along so I am not escorted to the exits before I'm ready. What would you do in this situation?

When changing jobs, how should I evaluate the salary change if I am switching from a HCOL to LCOL? Seems crazy to accept a pay decrease in this market but not sure if it’s really a decrease after factoring in the COL. Going from B4 to industry if it matters.
