I’m in Denver pulling $95k base, and I’m starting to think I made a massive mistake by choosing work-life balance over a front-office grind. I love leaving the office by 6:00 PM, but seeing the first-year IB guys pulling down six-figure bonuses is demoralizing. Is the only way to break the $150k barrier before turning 30 to move into a revenue-generating role?
Does anyone here actually meal prep? Any tips? I just looked at my DoorDash history for the month and I spent more on delivery fees and tips than I did on my actual car payment. Between the 14-hour days and the lack of energy to even boil water, I’ve basically outsourced my entire diet to various apps. And yes, I’m putting on weight.
I am 63 years old and have 30 years of Collections management experience working in banks . I currently have an individual contributor role job making $110,000 per year . Our office is only 5 people. I report to the owner . I've been here 3 years. I recently received a job offer of $110,000 for a Collections Manager for a Debt Collection law firm. They have a 401K plan but no match. My current job is very low stress , casual dress, and a very easy job. Is this new job worth the move ?
Leadership question: When a supervisor asks for your honest opinion about a coworker, how candid should you be? Do you give your unfiltered assessment if you believe the person is underperforming or relying too heavily on others, or do you focus only on objective facts and let management draw its own conclusions? Curious how others have handled this situation.
I’ve been thinking about whether “career growth” always needs to mean climbing higher, or if sometimes it just means finding a role that fits your life better. That mindset feels healthier to me. How do you define career progress now?
I think one thing to keep in mind is QS is not a great rating. It's the lowest rating you can get without being in disciplinary action. You want to try to aim for Quality High. Also, asking the hiring managers, whom you shortlisted with, for feedback on your interview or what they are looking for in your background will go a long way as well in helping you set goals. Just my thoughts as someone who went through that fairly recent.
