This is the 5th time in the last 12 months I have told senior management that I need help with my workload. If I hear 'you need to learn to manage your time better' or 'it's like this in all agencies as well' or 'block time in your own calendar to complete work' one more fucking time I will shoot myself.

How is this my fault?! Being on 150% (conservatively speaking) long-term is not normal. Having to work weekends & public holidays is not normal. We are 2 planners holding up the agency... TWO!

Anyone have idea on below companies. Which is better in terms of WLB & hikes? Both offering almost same CTC.
1)EPAM Systems
2) FactSet

Recent lateral (6ish months). On pace for 2000. Partners keep asking me if I’m liking the quality/type of work I’m getting and telling me to let them know if I feel overwhelmed by my (very manageable) workload. Am I crazy or do they think I’m going to leave for another firm or something six months in?

I accepted a new offer and put in my notice this week and my company provided a counteroffer. The offer is lower than my new offer but I know it’s the best they can do. Financially I do need the money but I’m also tempted to stay because my current team is so great. I have 2 questions 1) when does it make sense to prioritize workplace happiness/ balance over financial well-being? 2) if I go back on my offer acceptance should I consider that bridge burned?
