I’ve been the only person on my team in my role since my start, am being incredibly over worked , at times to the point of burnout. I’m replying to pings late into the evening and over performing . I wished they hired more people on my team to spread the workload but at other times I hope it stays the way it is because of the autonomy my current position offers. If they do hire someone else or an MSP, I want to ask for a promotion being the most senior person there. Is this a valid ask?

That is MORE than valid! If you’re doing the work of a whole team of people it’s the least they can do.

Is there a way for them to hire contract staff in the meantime to help with your workload?

Ahhhh okayyyyy. I still say asking for a promotion AND raise is more than valid. 3 people managing 1200+ users is quite the load.

You’ve shown that you are more than capable to wear multiple hats and I’m sure meet various deadlines/demands as well.

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all.

Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?
