From SWE to Sales. I am a software developer looking for something new. Has anyone made the shift to Technical Sales? How was the experience? How did you like it?

Benefits only include medical but unknown what level. I’m really struggling to decide and take me a job. It’s a great role but lots of room for growth. However, there are no benefits beyond simple medical. No vision or Dental. No 401(k) or a 401(k) match. No WFH reimbursements or…

Work in Fundraising & Burned Out and Broke! Today, I'm struggling to find the will to do my job. I was denied a salary adjustment a few weeks ago. Now it is time to ask people to support a campaign. I do not have the will to make calls to wealthy people asking to support a cause…

My boss said I'm "never stressed out" enough. I work at a non-profit in marketing and I've only been here 5 months. There are a lot of projects and I am always ahead of time. Last week, I went to have a frank conversation with my boss after she returned from maternity leave. I…

I find it funny how I was let go from a new job after seven weeks for work performance and I see on the website they haven't found a replacement since I was let go in May. Thoughts?

Return after maternity leave. I have been engaging with HR to discuss my return from maternity leave. We have agreed upon the date and the adjustments I need to my office to make it ready for pumping while in the office. During a discussion with my direct supervisor, I was…

I’ve been in my current role now for 16 months and I can say to myself that I’ve given the job and the company enough chances to change my mind about leaving but it didn’t. I work for a company that is very large but the region itself is very unstable. In my 16 months, the person…

I am having so much trouble finding a remote job with no experience. I am a full time student and I have realized that working remotely will be ideal to finish school but I am so overwhelmed.

Happy Monday! I have a dilemma as to whether I should continue to apply for jobs or restart my search in December. I have been unemployed for 9 months, and all the jobs I have applied for have rejected me without getting a single interview despite resume optimization. Should I…

Discouraged and Stuck Professional life was going good until two years ago when it wasn't. I am with the current company for about 20 years. I stayed because I got promoted, worked on different positions, learned a lot as the company was expanding and the place had a great…

Hi, looking for a little help. Even willing to chat with someone if they specialize in this type of thing. I’ve been on a leave of absence for about 4-5 months due to unforeseen and unfortunate personal and family matters. I spoke with my supervisor a couple weeks ago because I…

Alright for some reason my hours at my job got cut from almost 40 hours a week down to 13 hours I don't understand it I used to work 5 days. Then they gave me 3 days. I said something to my manager asking for more hours and then the week after that they gave me 2 days. Should I…

I had a video interview where the CIO continuously covered his mouth with his fist while talking. It was difficult to hear but I managed to do so. I looked up body language for this and ‘ being deceitful’ isn’t my interpretation. Asking your thoughts???

Well my Employer has officially succeded in getting me out after 24yrs of service. Durin my time there I've been nothing but friendly, and I deem myself a lovable person. Because I asked for a raise and compared my duties to another, I was written up, yelled at and ostracized…

Learned the hard way. Its never never wise to ask questions to a potential employer. Asking them a few thoughtful questions is the easiest way to be removed from the contender list. I realize this will not apply to some and many don't see it as an issue but in my experience once…
