Looking for some advice… I have been with my company 4+ years and am in middle management. I am really overwhelmed and feeling burned out from constant change in my department and our processes.
In the last year, I had a new boss, new team, new technology, dealt with HR for issues with a couple of direct reports (lack of respect for hierarchy and ability to do the job and another employee who inappropriately used substances while on the job), and feeling like I’m always “on.” I returned from maternity to having the same title as my direct reports which led a lot of feelings of being disrespected. The daily/weekly process changes are also a lot to keep up with. I am all for process efficiencies, but you have to balance it with to some stability. I am losing my mind (internally)…. I do my best to keep it together and be professional. I have poured my time into my job and now want to set work/life boundaries for my sanity. I dread going to work every day and now have had headaches the last 4 weeks.
If you were my mentor, what’s your advice?
