Not sure what to do with my career. I am in FS Tax since I started (6 years) doing tax work for Hedge and PE (K-1s, returns, etc). I would like to keep growing my career but not sure what I want to do. My short term goal is to become manager at RSM (currently supervisor) then reevaluate. But I would like to keep growing my career, not sure if Public or elsewhere. And if it’s in private then what types of places can I go where I can keep growing (that isn’t a fund). Any tips would be appreciated.

I am a Sales Support Engineer (Applications Engineer) with 2 YOE. I am thinking about making a change because my job is no longer challenging, and there isn’t much growth opportunity in my company. I love my team, but I feel like I may need to move on. I am at 70k a year and have been told time and time again that I have learned faster than anyone they have seen and am a top performer.
