There was an October promotion freeze so I wasn't promoted to Senior and have no motivation to work. I'm interviewing with several companies and have money in the bank so I'm tempted to just put in my two weeks. Any motivation tips or advice?

Also, part of it would be so I can focus on advancing my D&A skills like excel power query, SQL, and IDEA through online learnings. I've gotten to use some D&A skills here and there in my position but nothing very advanced and I never had time to really hone in, just become familiar and basic utilization.

I suggest sticking around. Work hard and ask for a mid year promotion. Stay motivated and show strong performance in the upcoming period.

I think you've found your answer.

Update, I was asked about compensation in an interview today and learned that $67k is reasonable. I currently make $53k, I'm definitely leaving lol

Apply externally for other firms. Many are still doing promotions and would still want experienced staff plus would hire you as a senior

My LinkedIn feed was absolutely filled with layoffs today. What happened? A month or two ago it was a candidate’s market and the offers were great but now everything has shifted. I was informed that I am not getting a promotion that I was gunning for, and when I pushed back about being fairly compensated for my work the response about it not being a good time to ask was really ominous. Anyone else feeling bummed?
