You're talking about in your practice?
Every manager should be briefed on how to be an ally- make it known that mental health days should be taken as any other sick day, normalize needing breaks from the stress of the job.

It helps me to connect with every team member om things unrelated to work so that everyone feels more comfortable sharing and getting help when it's needed the most.

Hello. I am a Sr. Systems (Management) Analyst (equivalent to a Sr. Software Engineer), promoted to this position in 2019, from a Software Engineer position. I am doing really well and I always get great annual performance feedback. I work for a health insurance giant, that has a headquarters in MN (😉), but I am based in IN, with 10YOE total. I'm wondering how much I should be making, and if it is high time to ask for a raise or look for other opportunities and jump ship.
