A vice president in M&A shouldn’t be taking down a big downgrade to manager. Ask to lateral into a partner or at least a director level role.

VP is also used as the post-MBA role similar to SA at some banks. This is probably not as big a downgrade (if at all) as you think.

Hi Fishes, I need your advice!

I joined CG 6 months back and was on training for 3-4 months for Dynamics CRM, completing multiple MS certifications. Post that I was mapped to an account for the project & was under shadow.

After shadow completed it seems like there's no project openings in the account for which I was selected. And now management wants me to go for other certs.

Please help me know whom can I approach & ask for project openings/tagging. I'm worried as it's already been 6 months!
