My job is National Account Executive and they now have us doing majority account management. Half of the team was let go last week and they just randomly threw us all of their accounts. All of these accounts have a ton of issues and there’s not enough time in the day to complete all of the requests. With that being said, this same thing happened last year and we have not received a pay increase either time. Is it time for me to look for something new???

Your colleagues just got laid off in a job market where a lot of folks are struggling to get interviews amidst mass ghost job postings. If I were you I'd stick to this job and see how it shakes out a bit longer. You should have weekly meetings with the teammates who were not let go and see what the general consensus is. Worst case scenario look for another job while you're sifting through the change.

Yeah I agree , I would however look at the whole scenario the company is in and evaluate the possibility of them letting more people go and/or outsourcing at a cheaper rate than paying full time employees. Not that that’s even on the table with your company , but it’s happening alot . I would definitely make sure to had something secured before leaving

Use this job as a paycheck while you seek another employer. What was done to your ex-colleagues will be done to you, eventually. Find a lifeboat ASAP and jump ship before the execs make you walk the plank.

Yes.

hmmm seems to me that you might have to consider is the job really worth it? I may be new to this sales thing but the freedom for me to work my own hours is a bonus. I would rather bust my ass for myself selling insurance than becoming a victim to someone else system. I can always use a teammate with me. I mean i provide financial freedom, and you can build a nice income. Im sure you can compensate what you are making now with your time. I say move on and slave for yourself. if you are going to be frustrated over a job, might as well be your own. But thats just my opinion.

Hi there!
I completed the last round of an interview (presentation) last week. Originally they said they would be calling my references & then make an offer accordingly.
Today they updated that they'd like me to travel to their HQ (based in Nordics & I'm in London) for the final round where I'd meet the CEO, the hiring manager and a couple of people in the team.
I don't think I'm the only one in the process - even though initially the last round was the presentation.
What are your thoughts?

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?
