Will vary greatly by industry and project. How ever, in general, you have a lot of control over your own wlb as a senior manager.

I rarely put over 40-50 hours in a week with strong metrics. But I've also seen other senior managers with no personal boundaries regularly put in 60+ hours, nights, weekends.

There are exceptions and certain partners or industry niches that I will avoid at all cost due to poor scoping or unrealistic resource allocation. As a senior manager you have a lot more control of this both in the sales cycle or during the start of the project.

Has anyone ever asked to renegotiate their salary after starting a job? I’m 2 months into my new job and I have far more responsibilities than what I was told.

My peer has more experience so I expect that but I feel that I should be paid more, however I don’t want to leave a bad impression… any advice?
