I have been at my new job for a little over two months, and things are not going well.
During the interview process, the role was oversold, which made me think that THIS was the opportunity I had been looking for. My supervisor comes off like he hates me and wants nothing to do with me. I cannot speak to his supervisor because she's too busy figuring things out, and HR is unresponsive. My supervisor has been at the org for about five years now, and everyone seems to admire him that if I made claims about how he treats me, no one would believe me. On top of all of this, job security is a big issue, they were not honest during the onboarding and interview process about where they were fiscally and will now be shorted next fiscal year, and I am unclear what this means to my role. Please note that I was at my last place of employment for less than a year because I was severely overworked and underpaid.
I now have several preliminary interviews in the pipeline, but I do not want to go through this again. Is there anything that I am missing to avoid these red flags again?
Thanks for reading.
