My manager keeps telling me they’re worried I’m going to quit. Work has been stressful, but I’ve loved my company and hadn’t thought about leaving until they started bringing it up. Did they create their own demise?

That's an interesting situation. Perhaps they did create a classic self-fulfilling prophecy. If someone said that to me I'd wonder what would possess them to say that. Maybe they know something I don't!

That’s very odd

Honestly… kind of, yeah. Repeatedly bringing up the idea of you leaving can plant a seed that wasn’t there before, especially when things are already stressful. Even if their intent is concern or retention, if I were you I’d probably start to feel unsettled and reflect on things I hadn’t planned to.

Just found out that end of the year I will be promoted from analyst directly to VP and since it’s such a large jump I’ll be the lowest paid VP in asset management at only $135k TC. Should I stay it out and wait for TC to align or take the promotion and jump ship bc I will likely get paid more elsewhere given how recruiters/other companies eat up hiring recently promoted ppl from other firms?
