The grass is greener on the other side - Recensione dipendente - Account Manager presso Genea

There is a good honeymoon phase when you first start but after a while you will be asked to take on more tasks and roles and other people’s jobs after they leave and still be severely underpaid. This will all be expected to be done in the same 8 hour time frame as your original position which will also be adding more tasks at the same time. You also will be told the company is doing great and sales are better than every just to be told at the end of the year that no one is getting a raise so we can all keep our jobs. There will be burn out and breakdowns starting very early on and even when you confide in your manager not much will change in the end and sometimes any personal frustrations you might voice could be held against you. There is no growth opportunity or any planning for your future and your only option is to change teams constantly or work in two departments at a time. Structure and reorganization will be mentioned a lot but there won’t be much change and things will remain unorganized without any clear path. There will always be a new method or tool to help “make things easier and more efficient” but it will only be a couple of months before a new method or tool is put in its place and you have to try to learn how to do everything all over again. There will be times you will get accused of something without the full picture ever being taken into account which usually happens when someone from another team will go to their manager with false “concerns” about something you are working on instead of coming to you directly when you are supposed to be working together. As a result there is a blame game straight away instead of a conversation to under if the “concern” is something that really does need to be addressed or if it is an overreaction.
