Never got rolled because of my performance. Been rolled because of someone else's incompetence. Long story.

Same here

Anyone experienced with getting rolled of bc of performance?

How did it reflect on your further progression?

Can only imagine it to be really tough as this industry kind of expects from you to have high expectations from yourself...

I have been. I was thrown in as a SC into the consulting world and I did not expect it to be so different. I called it out openly in my next project and people always have me the chance as I had other strengths such as point of view and analysis but I took me time to figure out how consulting works

Never been rolled off due to performance. Had to role of a junior resource once but it was client related (they wanted a more senior resource).

What’s your opinion on what I wrote on my Grindr profile? “I am looking for a top who wants to have fun. If you’re not mobile, don’t hit me up. If you’re only here to collect pics, don’t hit me up. If you’re here to waste my time, then definitely don’t hit me up. Some of you talk big game over message but don’t live up to that expectation in person. I am tired of the flakes and the last minute excuses. I love di*k but some of you can be di*ks.”

Given the expectation for people of my tenure to transition to EM in a year or so, I can’t see myself staying due to the WLB as an EM. I’m 35 and have 2 young kids. Can it even be realistically done? Would love to stay but I don’t see a balance which would keep my family happy. What options do I have from there?
