Wow talk about jaded. Sad to hear people aren't loyal to their teams and don't feel like they add value.

It's wonderful that you feel a sense of camaraderie with your teams and you don't want to let them down. If they are good people, they will support you pursuing your interests even if it means you leave. Everyone is right that you're replaceable. Not to make you feel bad or unnecessary but to give you the freedom to do what you need to do for you and your career without feeling guilt. You do you, boo. It won't ruin your teams. Just don't be a dick about it when you leave.

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.

I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.

Feel like audit scheduling is always done on a knifes edge in that the timeline and staff schedules are enough so that if everyone works 60 hour weeks and no issues are identified then it can be filed on time.
