Love the agency, can't stand the way my account/team is organized. Workload is unfair & demanding for my role and pay. I've spoken to upper management twice but nothing has changed. Thoughts? Ideas?

That sounds way too familiar. Currently in the same situation. As long as the work gets done no one cares. I'd love to hear more thoughts also 🤷🏼‍♀️

Same boat, would love to know how anyone addresses this

Yeah, it's a motherfucker. I'm personally numb at this point. :(

If you're young, maybe switching jobs? Industry? Hearts runs like a frickin machine, and it can feel a bit inhuman at times.

Definitely a wider spread problem. Are you at a level where you can propose staffing adjustments? Come with solutions in your conversations. No one wants to hear a list of complaints.

Make a list of the things you can't control and won't change. Separate that list into what you can accept and not accept. If the things you can't accept are deal breakers, you know what to do.

Good luck!🍀

Need advice!

I am over qualified for my role now and already meet the exp of the new role above me. Very salty and feel like they are setting me up to feel stuck before I even start. What do I did?
