Any examples?

I'm guessing u mean like Tepper and Cornells Tech Mgmt MBA? My opinion is go big or go home. The school brand is all that matters. Once u have that you can go to any tech or non tech exit u want

Hi Fishes,
I have completed 1.5 decades in my first job in a biopharma company. Though I didn’t change, I got a good growth in terms of position and also learning.
Now I am looking to switch. I am from manufacturing operations with a Masters in Biochemistry. I have also done Organisational Excellence certification from ASQ and have a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt course completion certification. My forte is continuous improvement projects. I am looking for opportunities in this field. Help plz.

My manager asked my team to write an email of accomplishments this year for our mid year evaluations, and he said to do max 3-5 items, and I counted up 11 and can’t bring myself to choose only 3-5. This is the same manager who is severely underpaying me and said no chance of a raise after 1 year and so many accomplishments (1 yoe, mba, goes above and beyond, 72k). Should I stick to 3-5 or send him the list of 11? TIA

Anyone else just sitting around waiting for the ax to drop? I'm a soon to be 2nd year corporate associate who has seen work completely dry up. My utilization held pretty steady around 50% immediately after shutdown, but August was below 15 billables with no appreciable work in the pipeline. Aside from letting people know I'm available and doing pro-bono/CLE, it's starting to feel like a serious "covidcation" leading to termination.
