I am a level 1 help desk tech at an MSP. I've been at this job for a year. I've been working in IT for 1.5 years, though.

I have my yearly review coming up and I have no idea what kind of questions to ask. I'm drawing a total blank.

I do know that I am being prepped to become a level 2 tech, but I'm not there yet.

My company is small and I can be totally open and honest with my boss.

I'm still anxious though.

How has me working here financially impacted the company? What can I do to help the company become more profitable?

Oh that's a good one! Especially since profit is up a whole fuck ton rn. I did do a job where we made $5400 to retrieve 3 emails.

It's a blessing to be at a company where you can share that info. Looking for work now, but that's one thing I'm looking for...a company that's open enough to share how I've impacted the overall business.

I hope you can find a company as good as mine. I feel appreciated and cared for for the first time at a job. I broke my ankle and leg in October and had to have surgery to fix it. Everyone has been incredibly accommodating and supportive during my recovery. When I was in the hospital after the injury, I was either too high or crying too much to update my bosses on my condition. My mom did the calling for me and the owner of the company had her tell me that I don't need to worry about keeping my job and focus on recovering. I ugly cried when I was told that.
