I recently became a parent and realized I don't care about climbing the corporate ladder anymore. I still want to do good work, but I'm no longer interested in promotions or working nights. Is it possible to tell your manager this without being written off?

  • Congratulations. It makes sense to put family first and enjoy seeing your baby grow up.
    You will probably be happier working from home, which gives... you flexibility in deciding when to work and when to take care of the family. Since COVID 19, companies have adapted to having employees work from home.
    The best situation will be to try your current or old employer. They already know your work. Otherwise network and check for advertised positions. Polish up your resume and rehearse your interview. Good luck.

  • I think you can have that conversation without framing it as a lack of ambition. Your priorities have changed, but that doesn’t mean your commitment... to doing excellent work has changed.
    There’s a big difference between saying, “I don’t care about my career anymore” and saying, “I’m happy in my current role and want to continue performing at a high level without pursuing additional responsibility right now.”

    I’d focus the conversation on what you are committed to: producing strong work, being dependable, contributing to the team, and continuing to develop professionally.
    You can also be clear that protecting your evenings and family time is important to you at this stage of life.

    A good manager should recognize that not every valuable employee needs to be constantly chasing the next title.

    Success doesn’t have to mean continually moving up. Sometimes it means doing meaningful work well while protecting the life you’ve worked hard to build.
