He or she thinks they’re saying things people care about. Probably came over with an acquisition of a boutique, it seems a key talent of non big 4 people to pontificate

If you consider big tech (FB, Apple, Google) boutique lol

I don’t consider people who work there to have any specific talent. The truly talented executives and leaders don’t leave those firms.

Advice Please
It's been 4month with the team with no manager. I recently joined the organization and the team I am part of is headed by a lead and one analyst.
So being a new member as Sr.Data Analyst I sometimes have to report to analyst. Considering the fact that he has been part of the team for past 1 year and sometimes he sounds like lead as he is leading some project.
On other hand my manager is continuously asking me take lead in project and try to reduce dependency on that analyst.

Looking to make a huge career move in two years. With my current company and position, I wouldn’t be able to work remote, so I was considering becoming a Project Manager. I have already talked to my direct manager and now director of our group and looks like I have their support, however I have no experience with PM. Any tips, advice?

Currently on a project that is basically admin work. The PM is telling another Sc to tell me to make a slide or gather information we don’t have. The SC is being pretty condescending. Asking for things then saying this isn’t correct but doesn’t want to tell me what he is looking for but furthermore we are peers but he is very nasty…ends everything he says to me with “does that make sense”. I’m thinking he is having me do the work and present it as his own
