As I’m saying in the tittle, I think im getting majorly shafted by my current job and I feel at odds on what to do. I don’t want to hurt my chances of ever moving up but I also want to be fair to myself.
So-
I’ve been at this new company for 10 months. At the beginning, I tried to get involved in any issue I could solve and try to learn as much as I could.
With help of my coworkers, i started writing down SOPs for the department and publishing them for everyone to see so new hires would have an easier time understanding everything (my training SUCKED because these resources were not readily available)
At around month 5 they started telling me they wanted me to move up in management and that they had a position for me in mind since I had been doing a good job.
3 months ago, I kept getting invited to all kinds of meetings related to this “new position”. all I had to do was take notes and publish them.
Simultaneously, I started an extra curricular activity for work that my supervisor is in charge of, as I got on, she started dumping all the administrative work in me. (Directing meeting, doing newsletters, recruiting coworkers etc) there was only 1 member in this group, I was able to convince (beg) my coworkers to join with me. We ended up being 12 people.
As time passed, these meetings started to become very overbearing because they were being scheduled ALL the time sometimes at a moments notice.
I’d be in the middle of (my regular) work and I’d have to drop everything and join these meetings this started affecting my performance on my regular work. I spoke with y the manager about this, and they indicated it came from “above” and not to worry.
My supervisor started making snarky remarks to my coworkers about me being in meetings. Once she publicly mentioned I had the lowest productivity numbers in the department. (Before I was #2 or #3 out of 10)
Fast forward to now , last week, I’m finally being talked about transitioning to this position full time but was told no details regarding position tittle or money were “known” yet. I still get introduced to all of my new coworkers and the team, and people in other countries and states are being told to contact me if they have issues. (I’m not trained to solve these issues)
My new manager is located on another state, she’s very hard to talk to, and I’m not being really trained. I asked a question, and she talked for a whole hour and wouldn’t let me ask anything else.
And I am absolutely fed up by now.
The turning point was when my old coworker asked if I was offered anything yet, and I said no. It stung when she said “so you’re still doing it for free”
I don’t want to hurt my chances but these people are really fucking me over, no?
