Re: advice needed
Ive seen women who are all career at my job. They are directors and heavy managers, some even partners. They are very successful/smart/ well paid and they are always sad when they see other women pregnant, and realize they’re over the age to really start a family. Some have even told me themselves that its late for them to start and it sucks but what can they do.
I used to think yea career is everything. but it really isnt, theres going to be a point where your gonna go home and be by urself. I would rather have both a job and family. but if i have to choose, i would chose family over job.
I worked for one of the major audit/consulting firms. there were plenty of senior managers, principals and partners who were women and had a family.
