Self-Care

My current company is pushing for “globalization”. They’re expanding into different countries and as a result are trying to find ways to offload departments to other countries for cheaper labor. I’ve been job hunting for a few months and recently had an interview for a position with a company for a payroll analyst position. I didn’t get that position but the recruiter asked if they could do an interview process for a different position with their company. This position is customer facing (which I’m not excited about) and it pays less but it’s basically been insinuated that the job is mine, I’m just going through the normal motions. Ive done research on the company and position and while people love the company the position has terrible reviews. People have stated being severely overworked and underpaid being the common theme to all the reviews. My current company has me scared of lay offs and the other position scares me because it sounds like I’ll be stepping from a pan into the fire. Do I stick with the devil I know? Or go for the damn near guaranteed new position? The recruiter stated that the pay could jump in six months if I do well but that doesn’t really bring me any confidence.

The truth is, the job market isn’t always built for those of us with nontraditional paths, career gaps, neurodivergence, or lived experiences that don’t fit neatly into a LinkedIn headline. But what if what makes you different... is your advantage? Let's dive into 6 ways to embrace what makes you different — and how to use it to stand out in your job search (not shrink back). ? Now I’d love to hear from you: What’s one part of your story you’re learning to own — instead of hide — in your job search? Drop it in the comments ? or DM me if you want to keep it private.

Has anyone else experienced this? My officemate constantly complains about our boss and their management style. It’s starting to affect the team’s morale. I understand everyone has their opinions, but I’d love to hear how others handle similar situations. Any advice?

I shared the information because I needed to adjust my schedule and had to explain why. Hr was also told why as they work hand-in-hand and everything HR runs through my boss. Now my coworker who told me this was sick to her stomach for a week and was acting strange when she saw me. She finely came clean and told me she needed me to know that she was told this very personal thing and wasn't comfortable knowing it. So my question is- what would you do? I feel my boss should be written up for this, but I am wondering how to go about it

What strategies work best for you? Thanks.

We can all see that your platform continues to be hit by fake accounts posting spam content. This is a common tactic used by bad actors in online communities, and there are a few non-technical steps you (Fairygodboss/Muse) can take to get things under control—so members can keep using and contributing to the platform. If you need help, let me know. I’ve had a lot of experience dealing with this kind of thing in early-stage startup communities. I still check Fairygodboss daily to see if the issue has been resolved because I really enjoy contributing here and supporting others—but honestly, my patience is starting to wear thin.
