I would stick with a good boss. It's rare to find in any field. I'd take a good boss and shitty work over good work and shitty boss any day.

Keep asking for more from the partner. Seems like you like challenges and being pushed, continuing to find those in industry will be very few and far between. Pace and intensity is not in industry and you will find yourself twiddling your thumbs often.

@Deloitte1 I get that. My biggest concern is just staying in a service line that I know I don't like and don't want to be in long-term. I'm in tax and I don't want to be anymore.

Partners, managers and supers are people. However they are in those position to help the people that they manage succeed, which in turn makes them successful. No matter what industry you are in, if you do not communicate to these people, they will not know what your concerns are.

In response to already talked to your manager or partner and he made you in charge on a big impact project, you proved to him that you can handle it. Talk to him again and I can assure you that he is going to see you as a go getter and someone who wants and needs constant challenges.

@Alext you must either a) really like talking to the partners at your firm or b) be a partner. Same advice on three different threads!

@Alext I've talked to him about this a couple times. First time I told him I needed more responsibility because I was bored, and he gave it to me. Made me in-charge of one of our biggest clients. Hat helped for a while but I'm back to being bored again.
