My boss is obsessed with changing everyone's job titles. One day I was the "Administrative Ninja," the next I'm "Chief of Staff." It makes no sense, but it's on my business cards now. Has this kind of title madness happened to anyone else?

It’s definitely a compliment to you and your work. But if it’s Chief of Staff and on you bc ask for that raise.

I’ve been here 19 years with no title change except senior Admin 2 to 3 to 4. Even when I was supporting a chief and an executive. I learned over the years titles don’t matter and chasing them only get you more work with the same pay. It’s good your boss is paying attention to your work though.

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
