My role is definitely not what I interviewed for and the response from my manager is a threat to get rid of me rather than help me grow and develop. This is probably not the ideal experience I was supposed to have, but this is what I get with an inexperienced and insecure manager.
My expierience has been rough due to so many people not understanding what I should be doing
People are celebrated for just about everything/anything
Newer employees make it feel more inclusive
My team is smart and capable
They're trying to make it better
Better alignment with my industry
Listening to experts that they hire and making data-driven decisions
We are a team that biases toward action all the time.
Nee additions to the team are representative of what a leadership team looks like
Too many have never had jobs before, they require a lot of help. Too many are far too sensitive to work effectively.
For a small company that wants us to move fast, there is a lot of unnecessary bureaucracy. We are needlessly tripping over ourselves.
Comp data for my industry is published online, and refreshed annually with data contributed by hundreds of organizations both big and small. This is how I know I'm paid under market.
There is far too much emphasis on acting like a family but calling it other things - collaboration, connectedness, developing relationships. We are here to do a job, not make a family.
I am undervalued - wrong title, wrong pay. I am expected to perform at a level that I'm not compensated for, with no excuse other than my manager blaming HR for changing things. It makes no sense.
There seems to be a clear divide between employees who were hired early on and those who were hired recently. The former get treated better and seem to have less rules / process around things like promotion and development.
I am expected to provide value that my peers are expected to provide, but they get paid more and have bigger titles. To make me feel valued I should have an equivalent title and be paid the same or stop requiring so much from me.
