Long story short:
Left a toxic culture, to find myself in a situation which is worse. Found this out AFTER I signed even though I looked into it. And now speaking to team members,they tell about a bad culture with a lot of people leaving.

Now I’m in my trial period, so I can also say this won’t work. I mean they even give limited WiFi acces so you stay at your station

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire but leaving so fast, how do you answer to that in a next interview? And how bad does it look?

Don’t worry about how looks - you can leave this one off resume, it may take time to get your next one and you don’t want to rush. Even bad jobs are bearable for awhile when you’re new. And if people are leaving, you may find new opportunities there. You don’t have to jump until you find someplace to go.

Thanks, good one to leave it off. I reckon the search is on and will keep this on in the meantime.

Also a small add on:
I also came there for getting some hands on experience in certain digital marketing fields. And working a bigger company (9 figures turnover) which presented itself as a party who wanted someone with marketing experience. Now to find myself filling in Excel files, while having 6+ years marketing experience.

So not really the job which was promised at the time. I’ve always had a “work and keep your head down” ethos. However, this doesn’t seem to be the way to go, especially if I want to grow and work on higher level marketing projects.

.

Don’t worry about what you’re leaving, focus on where you’re heading. It may take time to make the right move. (Two years is no time at all, even in bad jobs.) Keep this one, don’t put it on your resume if you leave in a short amount of time. Don’t worry about what you hoped for, this is an interim stop.

What do you consider to be a “healthy” number of LinkedIn connections? 1) too low 2) too high 3) just right.

Currently making $75k, which is very low compared to my counterparts. However, in February I’m supposed to get a salary adjustment with my yearly review. I got a job offer for $120k-150k which I turned down cuz I want to stay at Adobe.

How/when do I use this to leverage a good salary adjustment in Feb?

I’m trying to narrow down paths that I can take now, but am at a loss. There are so many ways I could go. Because of my last two roles I have a great interest in creative operations type positions, but I’m not quite sure how actually land the job. Any thoughts?

Recently, i was "promoted" or, I should say, my title was changed to the next ring up the ladder. As a part of this, I went from reporting to Senior Management, to Junior Management. The Jr. Manager has good intentions, but, is not helpful. I've worked at the company longer, have accomplished more across multiple lines of business and have a much stronger internal network. Am I overreacting thinking this is a major slight that will ultimately slow down my growth within the company?

I just received a great offer, but accepting it would require me to give up a 4-week paid sabbatical that’s coming up in a month with my current employer. How can I negotiate a late start? For an L7, senior role, can you negotiate a 2 month late start with a potential new employer?

Is this new job DOA? I’ve been in my new role 6 weeks after interviewing extensively and getting 5 offers and thinking back on those offers I turned down. I picked this company bc I liked their product and the manager, but I’m already feeling 1. REALLY silo-ed . Not a collaborative environment (even though I’m perfectly capable of doing my own thing.)Like I have entire days I don’t talk to anyone 2. Can’t seem to get my boss’s attention on my priorities that truly should be huge company issues
