Timeline of my new job and I appreciate folks thoughts (started in March):
March - May - Super busy , 100% utilization felt like I was thrown into the fire 🔥. July - receive a 20% raise and 10% bonus September - Now - been dead they’ve been on us about asking for more work but nothing to do. Recently I was told What I would be working on but that’s in January . performance reviews have been good to mediocre. Do I need to 🥶

I misspoke around 6 months in so September that’s what $$ I received

Just seems post September - it’s been slow . They have mentioned a game plan for me in January but still

Take a lot of training, and hit all the networking events you can find.

Hey, a 20% raise after that length of time? I'd hold onto this role until the wheels fell off to be frank. Sounds like it's peaks and valleys...as is accounting.
