What to do about feeling stuck in a job that doesn't make me happy? I've been in a job for just one one year but it is making me extremely frustrated. My supervisors don't have contemporary standards of training in our field - I'm the only one with an advanced degree - and yet my…
I accepted a role at a large company and unfortunately I don't like my team. As a director, I have more than 10 reports and they are negative and bring down my experience at the organization. Since I didn't hire them, I'm trying to do my best with a bad situation. They refuse to…

I applied for a job about a week and a half ago but have not heard back. I currently have a job but this one would be much closer to home. The description of the job sounds perfect for me (I'm an attorney and this position is in my practice area), and I just confirmed the post is…
I had an interview today. I arrived about 15 minutes early. I was seated in the reception area where I had a clear view of the glass conference room. I saw 3 people inside. I sat there for nearly an hour because the two senior leaders I was to meet with where still in a meeting…
I have been with my company for over 25 years. I have started at the bottom and gone up in the company and enjoy what I do. I went back to school to get my bachelor’s degree in data Analytics in hopes I can find a different position within the company to try something completely…
Not happy in new job I've been in the IT field for 20 years and just started a new job 2 months ago. Well, I hate it. Most of the staff is in other timezones and I'm working long hours. And the meetings are nonstop. However, the pay and benefits are great. I'm also having issues…
How long is your job search taking in this current job market? Hi All I am in a temporary contract role (which is awful company& culture) and have been job hunting for 6 months now. Although I have had some interviews they were not suitable or ghosted after. in previous years I…
My boss is 'asking' me to put over $10,000 of work related expenses on my personal credit card every month. I am supposed to expense it, but it is complex, time-consuming and annoying. This does not feel right to me. Is this common?
i just need some advice: Dilemma I’m a single parent and recently I started a job last month after a recruiter placed me, last year I had interviewed for a government job. Today I was told I would be receiving a job offer. Generally government pays better than private; has a lot…
I started working at this job two years ago and really thought it would be the place that I would retire having 10 years left. Due to the change in administration ther re has been a lot of turnover and environment is toxic. I love what I do and I do it well, but the constant…
My company recently acquired another company, and shortly thereafter, laid off 30% of our workforce. I was selected to stay and initially felt grateful to still have a job, but the cuts went deep and have resulted in a completely new org-strucuture with new teams and work…

New role not working out... I've started to look as I don't think this company is the right fit for me but in my specialty, jobs have been scarce in the market. Any tips on how I can stay positive in this role until I find another? I keep telling myself it's just a job but it's…
Need some advice. I have been in and out of the job market for many years now. I've been a marketing copywriter and editor for more than 20 years, and my goal for my next "real" job is as an Editorial/Content Director or a Senior Content Marketing Manager. My resume is a mishmash…

Need advice... First of all, I want to preface this by saying I'm definitely not a "work yourself into the ground" type. I believe in mental health days and that no is a complete sentence when asked to work extra if you don't want to. And I'd never ask anyone to work while sick.…
How do you answer why you're looking to leave your current employer? I've been with my current company for less than a year, but seasoned enough to know this is not the right place for me. The culture is toxic, implementing change is excruciatingly slow, communication is terrible…
