To stay or to leave
I’m at a senior management level right before becoming a shareholder. My senior leadership promised me that my name is being under consideration for partnership currently with a close but undisclosed timeline. But i understand to not count for the eggs not in the basket. I had some recent frustration with the local senior leadership in terms of work load and turn over rates from my team. Basically, I don’t believe in fixing poor management with overworking the team, but the leadership disagrees. I also feel outnumbered being the only woman in her 30s in the team of 6 leadership call. I made it very clear to the leadership team that the current workload they put me in is not setting me up for success. An outside recruiter reached out to me for a similar role at another firm. I haven’t got the offer yet, but the interview outcome was positive. I’m contemplating whether to stay or to consider a change. I’m also considering of reaching out to other branch’s female partners about my career outlook, since they told me that I need to call them before I consider leaving the company. I would be the first female to lead this local branch in 50 years, so they are very supportive of my growth. Hope I’ve given enough information for some thoughts.
