I’m so tired. I hold 3 roles on my team right now (same company, same manager, not 3 different jobs). I am a PO for 1 team and work as an analyst for 2 other teams. I often have to be in 2 calls at once. I haven’t left because the job security is too good (especially watching all of the tech layoffs happening elsewhere) and I am 100% remote.
This happened because I was a hybrid PO/Analyst and was suppose to transition to a new team, but now I’m just stuck doing both. Time to edit my resume. :/

Sorry to hear that

Might be good to discuss your workload with your manager and let them know how you can be supported. Its your managers job to make sure your workload is not too heavy/manageable or at least delegate better.

They should be able to lean in to help prioritizing the work instead of you doing all at once.

I’ve been in this position where I was PO, doing marketing and also QA for the company.

Side note: make sure prioritize yourself and avoid burnout. Remember work will always be there!

I’m sorry to hear that! I agree with everything the other poster said. Best of luck, we’re all pulling for you!

Wow. Sounds like you have a lot on your plate. I just hope you're getting compensated as much as you deserve. Have you talked to your boss about this predicament you're in? I hope you talk to someone who can do something about it. Something's got to give.

That's rough! I am pretty sure that you get paid for just the one role too 😕
Not the same situation, but similar one where work just kept piling until the time a few of us in the team spoke up. Turns out my manager wasn't even aware of how much work we were doing. Took sometime but they got a couple more people in to split the load.
We did the following-
1. Kept notes on everything we do
2. Started sending out mails asking what is more priority instead of trying to do it all
3. Discussed it with our manager with the notes and emails to show how it's impacting us and how work is also slowing down with us becoming the bottleneck.

Talk to your manager, show them how much you have on your plate and negotiate out of the 3 roles. All the best! We are all here for you!

Sorry you're dealing with this. I agree with HPE1 though, maybe there's a way to make it better without moving on? Job security is only going to get more crucial as the economy worsens.
