10 Signs that youÂ’re stuck in a Dead-End job
-
Boredom: YouÂ’ve stopped enjoying you're work and are no longer challenged. Work has become routine and mundane and nothing motivates you other than your monthly paycheck.
Stunted professional growth: You arenÂ’t learning anything new and there is no scope for advancement. Either your opinions arenÂ’t taken seriously or are immediately shot down. Plus, the management isnÂ’t investing in keeping the skills of employees up to date.
Downward spiral: The Company is losing clients and customers and rumours of bankruptcy are surfacing.
Out of control attrition: New employees come and go every other month and the company treats it very casually, making no attempt to conduct exit interviews or introduce motivation practices to control the high attrition rates. Moreover, existing employees constantly have to bear the burden of additional responsibilities till a new hire comes along and learns the ropes.
Me, myself andÂ…my work?: You lack a sense of belonging with your company and with the number of people coming and going you feel that your absence wouldnÂ’t make a lot of difference to the company or your colleagues. ItÂ’s hard for you to picture your future with company.
Community discontent: You constantly seek out disgruntled employees with whom you can vent your frustration about your company in not so nice terms.
Waiting for the alarm? : You dread Monday mornings and you literally have to lug yourself out of bed to get to work. At the office, you find yourself either day dreaming or glancing at the clock on your computer screen every two minutes waiting for the day to get over.
Poor work environment/insufficient resources: If your company hasn’t bothered to spruce up the office environment, be it by updating computer systems, having clean and functional facilities, good office furniture etc thereby contributing to low morale amongst employees, you know you’ve made a bad career move. According to Careerbuilder.com editor Kate Lorenz, “if the company questions you every time you ask for a new pen, it could be an indication of financial stress.”
Ethics loggerhead: Your personal values and company ethics arenÂ’t in sync with one another. You feel you are compromising your personal integrity or are going against your values by staying on and working with the company.
[b]Lack of R ‘n’ R – recognition and rewards:[b] You’re efforts are unappreciated and you’re not being appropriately compensated as you would be elsewhere. You feel under valued and even you’re annual raise is too meager to be considered a “raise”. -
