I joined a new team three months ago and still don’t feel useful. Everyone moves so fast that by the time I understand something, it’s already changed. It’s humbling and kind of embarrassing. I keep wondering when you actually start feeling competent again after switching jobs.

Really depends on your job and industry. I find some of my more junior employees will take 12 months before they are useful, it’s a continued learning path.
Have you had a chat with your manager and shared these thoughts with them that you still don’t feel useful? It might be good to benchmark whether it’s because you are genuinely lagging behind your peers. But I suspect more likely it could be that you need to build up more confidence in yourself.

My raise % has historically been good. Company entered into a big lucrative deal in 2021 which brought on more work and with it, promises of more lucrative prospects for everyone.

Come performance review time, I’m getting a rave review but was informed that the increase isn’t as big as prior years because HR is limiting the raises and not giving the department as much discretion as it did in the past with nos.

Tried to ask for more but not getting to the sweet spot.

Looking to change up my MO when it comes to organization. Litigator Hive Mind, how do you guys keep yourselves organized? Do you have a particular system? Looking for more tactile methods (post its, whiteboards, journals, etc.). The whole outlook calendar thing (while necessary) gets very cluttered very quickly and I don’t find it really advances the ball for me much.
