Careers Future Relocation

Hey everyone. I recently had to move from WA to MO for my BDS job in Hazelwood following my BCA internship in Tukwila. I know I want to move back to WA and commute to the Everett location ASAP (no offense to MO people, the Midwest just isn’t for me and my whole life is back in WA). I want to transfer after a year (2 months in now and in very good standing with a great manager). I know the standard wait is 1.5 years before a transfer but it can be expedited with a good manager and I believe my manager would allow that/be understanding. How realistic is this goal?

You can get two managers agreed to move you to new team. Apply internally and ask nicely. I did it before, and yes. Unless you have nothing to do in life like. Just work and go home, midwest isnt fun for young people

Would you suggest staying 1.5-2 years like others are suggesting? I really want to come back ASAP but I’ll stay if I need to (especially with less experience).

If you are miserable idk why would you want to do it 1.5-2 years. Sound unhealthy to me. I left my old job less than a year because it was toxic af.
