Obviously not a favorite in my firm. Took me longer than usual for a promotion, while peers get fast promotion (0.5 year, double promotion). What should I do?

No one cares. I promise you, not one single person has given a thought to your long-term career trajectory at the firm. This is both good and bad.

M1 chill out, it really didn’t need to go there...

Anyways OP, I hear you. Workplace politics are tough but, my honest answer is to jump ship. You can put all the work in and do everything right but it may mean nothing if nobody’s willing to back you when it comes time for promotion

Our district is so lax on the students this year. With tech issues and distance learning days, we’ve gone from accommodating to enabling real quick. No penalties for late work, taking excuses for attendance, lower academic and behavioral standards... We were beginning to make so much progress on transforming our school culture, but this year is erasing that and then some. Is anyone else concerned about how to raise the expectations and students’ self-discipline back to pre-enabling levels?

I was promoted early this year from an assistant “hourly” role to a managerial “salary excempt” role, but my old job hasn’t been replaced and it’s been 5 months. It’s an unfair workload and assisting someone else takes up so much time that I can’t learn and develop in the managerial role. And I find myself constantly working overtime and not getting paid fairly, even with the pay raise I got when I was promoted. I want to send my employer an email saying they’re in violation of FLSA.

Hi all, I got laid off from my current company (product based) a month ago. Since then I've been looking for new opportunities. I got an offer from a good product based company with a good package and also my current company offering me rehire with promotion and a good package. I have a good rapport with my current manager, and he played a major role in offering this rehire opportunity. I'm confused about making the right decision here. Kindly share your views. Both offers are pretty much same.
