I started a new gig 6 months ago. The company I work for offers no training. I assumed I would catch on after a while and just start picking up on task but I am still struggling. I hear my boss is telling other staff that I need to catch on and figure it out. Some task includes how to work the systems used, how to complete new hire paperwork, and how to read the budget. She showed me one time over zoom months ago. We work hybrid so I don’t see my boss often. I am visual and need moreAny advise?

Title? That happened to me. However, the third day I quit. It came across as toxic. I landed a better remote role who is properly onboarding. What also helped me was 1:1 with team members. 6 months seem long Is this a pivot or a role you have experience in?

Sounds like what I encountered at Blue cross blue shield very shabby one time zoom meeting & then you are thrown into the wild to figure things out. Please begin to plan your exit ASAP. Those are signs of a toxic work place.

Ask to record the training sessions and take notes. They can record on zoom. In writing ask for a training outline or standard operating procedure and cc HR.

Please do some youtube tutorials... and refer old on boarding documents and see where u find gaps in your work.. try do not give up.

Are there any online training options? My company has a whole library of training modules that can be watched on demand by any employee at any time, and a bunch of them are focused on the tools, systems, and processes we use in various roles.

Start looking for another job, the money is good but your peace of mind is priceless. I learn one thing you can't fit a circle into a square. When something isn't for you the signs will appear and it is up to you to either listen and take action or ignore it and watch everything crumble around you. Wishing you all the best in your journey.

They're probably toxic and they're considering letting you go. If people are talking about you that way it's usually a red flag. It's been six months, so if you're not getting it that's usually long enough. You could try reading up on stuff, but personally I would assume they're gonna say that you took too long. So you could spend all your time trying to keep going at your job or spend time looking for a new job.

Much earlier on in the game, you should have taken notes on everything explained. Download software to record your screen but usually you can just record a zoom call and watch the video later. Don't assume you'll remember everything by heart. Tutorials and the software help pages will also help.

my former female boss did the same thing to me. she never trained me and was gone for a majority of my first 90 days.

when I sat down with her to go over the training outline and on boarding the things I didn’t know she actually needed to show me and couldn’t be bothered.

who is your boss bad mouthing you to? you need to keep a running diary of this as well as email if you chat with her or after you ask for a training outline or a touch base.

if I could do it over again I would have done that as well as talked with her superior and brought up my concerns. i went to HR and that did not go over well
