What was your biggest achievement this year? When you look back and analyze your journey, do you feel it helped your career growth? For me, this year was average—some wins, some lessons, and steady learning. Not everything went as planned, but it gave clarity and experience. I’m curious to know: how do you rate your year, and what did it teach you?

I'm still pretty new in my career, but I got my first raise that I asked for. I kind of thought that raises would be an automatic, annual thing but I went two years without a single increase. This year I finally asked and got one.

Congratulations for promotion

I started a new job in March. It was long overdue for me to move on, and from the sounds of it, I timed things about as well as I could have hoped. From what my friends are saying, the current job market is not good.

Why are you thinking about changing your job

I took on some new responsibilities in the fall, which have been pretty interesting. So far I'd say I'm successful with the change, but I don't want to say that too much and jinx anything. I'd like to move up to a more impactful position, so getting some more experience seems to point me in that direction, which is gratifying. Overall, 2025 wasn't a great year, but I made what I could out of it.

Best of luck for 2026

I was promoted to a senior role and that promotion came with a significant compensation change and an administrative assistant. It also came with stress :/

Congrats for promotion

I learned a lot of new stuff which helped with my career growth. It would be nice to get paid more since I feel like I have a lot more responsibilities now.

Which kind of new stuff..?

You just finished teaching a skill / topic in your lesson. Children are now off to work on that skill independently: who are you targeting first to support, your students in the red or your students in the yellow?

We know our students the best, so what’s your best substitute lesson plan?

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA? Was just told that there is likely not going to be a chance for a raise during my upcoming performance review due to my salary already being “above average for the industry” based on my employer’s questionable research. I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.

User experience mgr salary? I support six product teams and eight reports. 20+ years experience

I am a registered sales assistant which means I have my series 7. I also have the 63 and my Life & Health license. I was a financial advisor but the role is commission only so I decided to take a role as an assistant for some time to learn etc. I really like my role, but I only make 32k a year and after taxes I only take home about 25k. I have a gut feeling that I’m not being paid market value but it’s tough to find comparable salaries. Do you think $15.38/hr is a fair wage in this case?

Does anybody know what the typical salary range is and total comp for someone starting out as an internal or external wholesaler? If you are one of these, can you share about your experience in terms of whether you liked it or not, work life balance, travel, etc?
