I started a new job about 3 months ago. It pays better than my last job, but I don't like the environment or the people. I feel like maybe I'm not a good fit for this but it hasn't been that long. Am I just being a baby about it or should I try to find something else?

Nope. Always listen to your gut instinct. It seems as though the market is slowing down, but if it were me, I would start applying and putting feelers out. Remember, it’s never a bad thing to have options. Good luck!

I agree start applying now before doing anything to let them know your going. Or want to go.

I wouldn’t think three months would be enough time to get fully acclimated to the job to have a true picture. Environment and people def can make a difference, but… you can also practice healthy personal boundaries and not give those people a vote on how you feel, and don’t give them space at your mental table. Theres always going to be “those” people at every job. I just don’t give those people a vote on how I feel and what impacts my environment. It takes practice but it helps!!!

Still feeling a change after 6m-1y then I say go for it. But also don’t let that less than desirable work environment negatively impact your resume. It looks better to have been at each place 1-2 years minimum before moving on. If you only have 1 or 2 short durations you might be able to get away with it. But… my resume is important to me and I would tough it out for the sake of my resume AND … you might find some personal growth in resilience along the way!

No matter how many hours I bill, I always feel like I’m failing in some way. Not organized enough, not efficient enough, not knowledgeable enough, always scrambling to keep up, never feeling like I have everything under control, always thinking about that day I wasted a couple hours and could’ve gotten more done if I’d just tried a little harder... I thought that feeling would go away as I got more senior, but it hasn’t. Is this a common feeling among other associates? And does it ever go away?
