I've been floating around at the manager level for a couple of jobs now and would love to accomplish my ultimate goal of becoming a communications or digital director.

Background:

I just took a new job at a very stable company after dealing with a layoff. The issue is that the job and supervisor are much different than they were presented. On the flip side, If I stay for a few years I'm eligible a pension. If I stay and try to transfer within the company, I'll be in my early 40s.

If you like the job, I’d stay and get that pension, then make the moves to make director.

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"
