Career

Jobs, raises, pivots, bosses and the long game.

• How do you ask for a raise without it feeling awkward?

  Looking for the actual words people use, not just "know your worth."

• What do you wish you'd known in your first month at a new job?

  Curious what you'd tell someone starting this week.

• Is it normal to feel behind in your career at 30?

  Wondering how common this is and what helped people get past it.

• How do you ask for a raise when you're not sure what you're worth?

  Market data is easy to find but hard to apply to your own situation. How do you work out a number and decide when to bring it up? What worked, and what didn't?
