All under 8. Been on at least 75% travel this whole time and our family is really feeling it. Is it normal to ask for a max 50% travel? I don't want to give ultimatem, but I can't envision another project like this. Should I be ready for leadership to tell me no? Start looking around at other firms?

I imagine that will be really hard in change management. I imagine most of change management is being there and getting people to do things

I would plan multiple approaches:
1. What is within your control to do now? For example, Can you shave a day or half day off travel here and there? Pack more meetings into one day? Use more telecom/vc?
2. Have a conversation with you leadership that you don’t feel this is sustainable for your life.
3. Polish your resume, connect with your network and explore options outside your firm

Accenture has those options DM me

Colleague has put in his resignation. They are offering him whatever he wants to stay including 4days a week work from home. He’s not bluffing and plans to leave. However, at this same time I was asked to begin working as a supervisor for the engineering team and I would get a promotion at the beginning of the year. I have been supervising and managing our team of 6 for months with no extra pay or bonuses. I was told yesterday that raises will be light this year. Yet today they spare nothing.
