I'm taking it for sure. But just wanna be prepared for what will be coming eventually..

What position OP?

Service engineer

You probably already know this to an extent but I was really excited about Microsoft thinking that I wouldn’t be measured on Utilization ever again.

However depending on the role, you may have some pretty aggressive quotas and targets (particularly if it has anything that has to do with Azure).

I decided to not take the offer and will probably try to exit after I hit M.

Are you joining CXP? I have moved and it’s the best decision I have made. Even though I left some money on the table, the wlb is great and definitely worth it..

Hello, I’m an LMSW in Michigan. I have 15 years of experience in the field as a clinician, supervisor, and an administrator. I am feeling burnt out and unsure of my future. I have worked mainly in the Community Mental Health and the VA Health systems, hence my fatigue. I’ve flirted with private practice work in the past, but my spouse has been worried about not having affordable healthcare and benefits that each system provides. Is it worth the jump? Am I overthinking things?
