I’ve got 10 years experience mostly at a major operator in production/completions engineering. And have done 2 years at McKinsey and looking to have a better wlb (had a baby). I’m not even sure what to target to head back into industry or who’s even hiring??And thoughts or guidance would be much appreciated! Houston based.

Look for an internal strategy/innovation/planning/digital role at an operator. Those roles are not demanding and a good fit for your background

Would love to chat with you. We're hiring super specific skills.

Started a new job a year ago, high performer. My manager suggested a promotion to Product Manager since that‘s the work I’m doing, but that would be a 50% raise. Higher ups decided instead to make a “new role” (not PM), that has no analog in the company and is hard to price via Glassdoor, etc. I feel like this is to limit my promotion salary to something like 10% from where it currently is. Is there anything I can do? FWIW: I have a PhD from top 5 program and am working in that field. Thanks!

Does anyone have the CFF (Certified in Financial Forensics) credential? Has it opened any doors?

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!
