I started a new Job 2.5 months ago. I am a graphic designer and I have worked in 3 agencies before.
I had my evaluation talk today with my bosses and they aren't happy with my performance so they want to extend my probation for 1 month.
The past 2.5 months I gave my 150 -200% and even worked at the office while my country had a mandatory home office law. I worked on a lot of projects and got good feedback from coworkers and clients. But as a newbie I took my time with some project because it was impossible to deliver the best quality without having done some research.
But for the company I took too much time so they are making a loss with me.
They told me if I give my everything next month and spend less time on projects I might pass.
But giving 200% every day, so that I can just go home and pass out …do I have to give 400% now?
I'm wondering if I am just not the right fit. I never didn't pass probation and other companies gave me at least a few months to grow with them.
The pay isn't even great and If I had some experience naturally things would go faster …. but as a newbie to be fast and keep the quality is impossible.
What do you guys think? I'm trying to decide to just leave or work the extra month for at least the salary. Of course I could to the 400% and try keeping the Job … but I'm so exhausted and disappointed and just questioning everything.
