Marketing. I spent 6 years to start my career and it was by far the least stressful. People in marketing manufacture stress to make it seem more important, but it’s easy relative to everything else. Also incredibly boring.

I think more creative roles in design and copywriting are a bit easier to navigate than technical roles in tech

In addition to role, consider company culture and maturity stage too. A possibly less stressful role at a company known for bad culture could be worse than what you have today. Same for the same role at a smaller company where they don't have things figured out yet.

Thank you that’s fair! There is a lot of work to get all the systems and analytics in place. So just feeling overwhelmed. Hoping to hire more folks next year to spread the work.

Hi all - I am looking for some advice and possible future options. I have associate/senior KPMG experience and moved to industry working in investment accounting. I have passed the CPA exam and am looking at getting the CFE. It seems like a lot of forensic/fraud positions are based in IT/programming or other computer based skills. Are there avenues in fraud/forensics that would be open to someone with my experience? If so, are there any skills/certs that I would need to be a desirable hire? TIA!

Been in PR & w/ the same company now for 8 years, and every day I fantasize about submitting my resignation. Definitely think the pandemic has made it more clear how burnt out I am and how much I despise my job & the people I work with. However, not sure what my next move should be & also feel I don’t have the head space to really think about it while staying at my current job. Has anyone quit their job & taken time off to sort their next move? If so, was it career suicide or the best decision?

Hello Everyone! Had a discussion yesterday regarding “claw backs” being included in a policy for sponsorship if the new employee leaves before 3 years.

I get wanting to save costs but at the same time doesn’t feel inclusive or welcoming. Thoughts? Have you done this or seen it work? Thanks!

We think l that you would have exciting development possibilities with us"

the lower part of that range, is acceptable, but low for market in the area. Should i ask about benefits?
