It's official: Fairygodboss Groups are here!
Real talk: When we launched the FGB Community Feed over a year ago, we didn’t know exactly what was going to happen but we knew we had an honest and authentic career-minded community to support our mission to help improve the workplace for women.
What we discovered: FGB’ers are talking with one another in ways we’ve never seen before –– by utilizing this safe and supportive platform to get advice from others and weighing-in where they can.
Words cannot begin to explain how wonderful this community is. It’s because of each and every one of you who’ve helped shape Fairygodboss as to what it is –– which is why we couldn’t be more excited to share with you this next chapter.
One of the biggest requests we’ve had along the way has been the ability to create FGB Groups –– so more people can create their own like-minded conversations while having the option to post anonymously when it comes to getting advice on sensitive or niche topics.
We hear you and have been working rigorously to help provide this resource for you. Thanks to your help and guidance, FGB groups are officially live! Now, you can start exploring existing groups, connect with like-minded women, create a new group or discover existing groups today!

A dream role position has landed on my plate while I’m not feeling my very best due to a health issue.
I’m okay 65-70% percent of time but lately it’s been flaring. I don’t want to lose the opportunity and feel I should at least try and do my best. I'm praying to god, to help me land this job only if its meant to be as im afraid my health “might “ affect my performance. I’m currently still going through the interview process. Would like some feedback from some mid -senior level professionals. Has anyone been in this situation before?

Opinion on secondment
I've been in my company for 9 months .
The perfect secondment opportunity came up .
My manager said to meet the secondment manager.
However, my meeting didn't go well.
I asked all the relevant questions but the secondment manager was very negative in her responses and I felt bad vibes.
The role was perfect and exactly what Ive been dreaming of .
But every question I'd ask she would be negative and say x person is tough x team will write bad reviews.
I didn't know if this was to check how i'd behave so I just twisted it positively and say how I'd adapt and help her with these challenges.
I rejected the opportunity but don't know if it's the right decision.
How do you determine if the secondment is right for you

How long should you stay in a position or company? Do you think there is a standard time?
Curious to know others thoughts on this topic. I've been hearing 2-5 years. I think there are multiple factors that determines the time such as security, money, toxic space, they love the role or company, it's not your career goal, they're bored etc
