I report to the CFO. Today I sent a question to her and the CEO, and she said it "doesn't look great" that I'm sending him questions without running them by her first. To which I responded, "Sorry, I thought we had an open door policy."

... something tells me that's not stinging her as harshly as I'd like it to. I fear I am finding myself working under an insecure overcompensating female again.

@jae The conversation quickly pivoted to how many operational folks I've spoke with in the firm feel our CEO does not give a shit about operations being properly tooled or staffed. All he cares about is the IT department meeting SLAs, and damn the man-hours needed to meet them since we're all salaried anyway. Hell, our retention rate is good, so nothing's broken, right? Just don't look at our accrued PTO balances...

@Sophia Tolstaya You're in a situation where you've got to decide what to prioritize, the corporation or your own well being, if the corporation fight until you prevail, if your own go somewhere where you are more appreciated.

@nanook I had an interview for a CFO position yesterday, actually. I'd be shocked if they made me an offer, but also I'd seriously consider it.

In the meantime, I'm going to keep fighting the current organization. Even though my work bestie keeps warning me to give up and lay low, I can't keep quiet about the problems as I see them.

@awl @bajax I have to be chill enough to work with. I'm not insulated from the consequences of being a dick.
I sometimes describe our incredibly rigid hierarchy to my newer coworkers as a militia, and I'm an NCO
At the end of the day I am not flying very many mistakes high before my political capital would be expended and my ass would be grass.

@jae @nanook haha, they've since downgraded the offer to DoF/Controller, so essentially a lateral move. Makes sense given my experience gap, nice that they're so keen on me anyway they want to try to make it work. But a lateral move makes even less sense than chasing a promotion while currently on intermittent FMLA. I need to sit tight at work until my life is less hectic.

@jae @nanook I have a draft email where I'm trying to say it'd be a waste of both our time to continue conversations if it's not more cash. I'm doubtful because my company's take on a remote work environment is to use the top pay scale in the country, instead of to scale based on region of residence. If a DoF role in rural CO pays the same as DC... I'll eat my hat.

@ᴏᴏᴍ-ᴋɪʟʟᴇʀ: 333[𝟱𝟬𝗽𝘀𝗶 𝘁𝗼𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘁]™ @Sophia Tolstaya Yes, I left and started a business, so in the beginning yes, in the long term no. I'm a two cookies kind of person so that tends to be my focus, long term.
