He lives is another state and it doesn’t seem likely our paths will cross again.

Advice needed: how do I tell my boss my team sucks? I switched jobs about 4 months ago and while I like my new clients and my manager, our team is the most unprofessional, unreliable, & incapable group of people I’ve ever worked with. They require constant micromanaging & there’s been times when I’ve had to do some of their tasks for them to avoid missing deadlines. I feel like I’m being set up for failure & clients aren’t very happy. How do I talk to my boss about this?

Is it ethical for HR leadership to make false statements about an employee’s commentary or behavior. For example, if an HR lead said, “John has given us an ultimatum. He’s leaving the company if I don’t move him from your team,” when the employee never made such a statement. Feels wrong to me as it could negatively impact professional reputation. But maybe this manipulation is just the way of the world.

I’m currently a 5th year senior manager at EY - and the path to PP seems to be an uphill battle with very limited slots available in next few years- primarily because we hired many DAPs last year. With my desire to make partner, I’m considering to make the move to ACN- what level can I reasonably come in at? I know there are many factors but curious of everyone’s perspectives.

Practice has been growing rapidly but I’ve been in a rut as a few projects went on ice due to COVID, and have been swinging and missing on BD. In parallel, my Practice Leader has been crazy busy because of said growth and has missed last few check-ins with me. He’s also my main PPMD sponsor. So am feeling demotivated and a little unloved. Trying not to take it personally, but any tips on how I can get out of this rut?
