I was trying to figure out what your phrase means in relation to what is being discussed.   I looked it up and still don't know what you might be talking about:

 

How the mighty have fallen.

Prov. a jovial or mocking way of remarking that someone is doing something that he or she used to consider very demeaning. Jill: Ever since Fred's wife left him, he has had to cook his own meals. Jane: Well! How the mighty have fallen! When Dan lost his money, he had to sell his expensive sports car. Now he drives an ugly old sedan. How the mighty have fallen.
 
I don't think Lisa ever considered her job to be demeaning.
 
Plus I think you have too many "have's" in your post.

Agreed.  Lisa used to be a big fish in a little pond.  Now she's a little fish in a huge pond.
