Career
Decisions

Should you take that job? Ask for a raise? Change fields entirely? Think through big decisions with a coach who remembers your goals.

The Challenge

Career decisions are some of the highest-stakes choices we make. They affect your income, your identity, your daily happiness. And yet most of us make them with limited support:

  • Career coaches charge $200-500/hour
  • Friends share perspectives based on their own situations
  • You end up making pro/con lists that don't capture the full picture

The result? Decisions made from fear, not clarity. Jobs accepted for the wrong reasons. Opportunities missed because nobody helped you see them.

How Ferni Helps

Ferni approaches career decisions like a great mentor would: asking the questions that help you discover what you actually want, then helping you build a plan to get there.

Clarifying Questions

Ferni helps you articulate what you're actually optimizing for. Money? Growth? Work-life balance? Often, you don't know until you talk it through.

Research on Demand

Peter can dive into industry data, salary benchmarks, and company research when you need facts to inform your decision.

Long-Term Perspective

Nayan brings wisdom about how small career moves compound over decades. What looks risky now might be obvious in hindsight.

Communication Coaching

Alex helps you prepare for negotiations, practice difficult conversations, and craft emails that get results.

"I was skeptical about talking to an AI, but Ferni helped me work through a career decision I'd been stuck on for months. The team approach is brilliant."

A Typical Conversation

I got a job offer that's a 30% raise, but I'd be going back to a bigger company after being at a startup for 3 years.

That's a significant offer. Before we dive into the details—what's your gut feeling when you imagine saying yes?

Honestly? A little relieved about the money, but also sad. Like I'd be giving up on something.

That tension is worth exploring. What would you be giving up that matters to you? Not the practical stuff—what would you miss about who you get to be at the startup?

Big decision ahead?

Let's think it through together. Ferni remembers your goals and helps you find clarity.
