This morning I had to have a serious convo with my boss about the unrealistic workload they’ve been piling on me. It feels like I’m constantly being asked to take on more while my coworkers get to pass the responsibility off. I told them straight up that I can’t keep doing this and still maintain my quality of work. There’s only so much one person can handle before burning out, and I refuse to be the ‘fixer’ anymore. I'm proud of myself for setting boundaries and sticking to them!

Stand up for yourself and set those boundaries but also heavily document the unfairness and start looking

Amen!! 🥂😍👏🏽

Good for you. What you'll often find is that if you stand your ground things will go your way. A lot of times people will just push and push, and if you're too accommodating it never stops. But if you call them on it, they back down.

Please report back

But what was the outcome

Just negotiated my lease down another 5%. Went down 4% last year too. Probably means I could’ve pushed harder last year, but still nice.

Hi Sharks!
I had interviewed with PwC India for Business Analyst role at Pune location, my both Manager round and Client round went well. However I have still not received any call/ offer from HR. I did call the HR she told me that they have not heard back from the Client.
Any idea how much time does the HR can take if they want to give offer.
My last working day is on this Friday and will have to join other company on Monday if dnt received offer from PwC. Please guide me.

I’m in-house at a small company (60 people), started right out of law school about 5 years ago. We had a legal team of 5 then. Everyone has left and we just hired a new GC. I went from $70k to $100k a little over a year ago. I am expecting an offer from a firm doing business law work but think this might be an opportunity to go to my current employer and ask for a significant raise, with new offer in hand. Any thoughts or advice going into this?
