Hey! Can you DM me? Might have some options for you in Dallas. The firm is a great group and the partner messages me directly. I’m ex biglaw myself and they have a decent WLB balance, and I can explain my reasons. I personally interviewed 3 partners from the group and they represent and have a lot of what I would look for in a lateral move. Hmu

Have you considered Winstead?

Curious what other employer brand leaders are making? I’m an employer brand manager at a large tech company, fully remote in California, a people manager and have about 4.5 years under my belt in employer brand but 10+ years of brand marketing experience. Feeling like I’m significantly underpaid considering the demand for good employer brand practitioners is so high.

I love my job in special education, the job may bring quite a bit of stress and exhaustion but nothing compares to the stress of the related service team. OT, PT, speech, BCBA, social worker, etc etc is really what’s killing me this year. It is 23 days into the school year and the team members all make different plans and as a result, nothing is being accomplished. And if paraprofessionals follow ie what OT says but not PT, it cause so much unnecessary conflict!
