Ladies I have been reflecting on something that's been bothering me a lot. Women are not getting promoted to manager fast enough. I am up for promotion this year and it feels hard to get your name out

I hear ya. I had to watch a fellow consultant get promoted to manager even though he had 2 years less overall work experience than I had. I got promoted a year later but I'm still salty about it

I'm a 30 year old female Director... your issue is self promotion not your gender. In the year you want to get promoted, you need to be working on a ground game the entire year. Everyone in your practice should know you are going for it. Several senior people should support it... ask them outright- am I on track for promotion? Don't wait until review time- by then it is too late.

there.

It's hard male or female. I have seen less competent get promoted over me because I'm not in NYC and I work remote a lot, often on stuff others hate doing.

Yeah remote is hard man.

P1 what practice? Are you FS?

Yes

Email me - fishbowlpwc@gmail.com. Female manager and would love to share tips without outing myself.

Can you girls share tips with me too? I just started as a SA and would love some advice from smart gals such as you how to construct my game plan for promotion in a year or two max. My email is agirlhasnoname121@gmail.com

We girls should stick together

Hi All, I’m a recruiter for a $4B 2,000+ employee construction commercial real estate company. I have 8 total years of construction recruiting experience and have been with my company for 5 years. In March of 23’, I’m due for a promotion to Sr. Recruiter/Talent Acquisition lead.I will have 3 recruiters reporting to me. Im currently at $80k base salary and am wondering what I should be looking for in my raise? Im based in Chicago and work fully remote. I am thinking I want $100k. Is that too low?

I’ve worked as assistant manager for years, but it doesn’t look like I’ll be getting a promotion anytime soon. I feel bad leaving since I'm kind of the glue around here and I’ve gotten to know pretty much everyone. Any advice?

I started with a company recruiting logistics professionals... They've doubled my work load and transitioned me into recruiting electrical engineers with security clearances ( so much more strict criteria), but my pay is the same.

I am getting ready to ask for a raise, but curious what you think I should be making?
I work completely remote and have surpassed all my quarterly goals this year.

How long is too long to wait for a raise? I've been waiting seven years and have had 2 title (and responsibility) promotions since the last raise. My manager says I deserve it and am long overdue. The CEO says we "can't afford it" and that "there are things that matter more than money." That's easy for someone not living paycheck to paycheck (during an inflation crisis) to say. I don't know what to do. How long is normal to wait? Especially with an employee's market like this?
