Well. Here it goes.
My boss has been pushing work (out of the defined process) and giving deadlines without any follow up on their part.
They lacks strategy & even a communication cadence.
They have pushed return to office and my office sucks. We have 7 people, 4 have offices. The rest of us live in these high wall cubicles with bullshit lighting and the stink of garbage overwhelming the office (were located in a basement adjacent to the dumpsters). The dumb thing about return to office is the “office dwellers” come in and sit in their offices without interaction. They want us there but there really isn’t a “why”.
I’ve realized that this is simply a job. There is no advancement. My boss cuts people off above them, that is the only strategy they employ.
I have zero support. I get pushed projects that are beyond my scope and just stuff no one wants to do.
I know this is a dead end. I’ve realized their job is so obscure and non accountable that they don’t have anything aside from taking care of their employees which they aren’t.
I am looking for a new gig at a bad time of year but in the interim how do I maintain homeostasis?
Every couple of days management sabotages another thing I am working on.
My mental health has taken a hit lately and my boss is showing me they care little to nothing about the cube people.
