I relocated internationally and left a secure role to join this company, only to be fired six weeks later during my probation. I received no prior warnings, no constructive feedback, and no opportunity to improve or adjust. I was told my performance was “not bad,” but that they had decided they needed “a different profile.” The decision came suddenly and without any notice, despite the major life change I had made to be there.
The expectations were also out of touch. There were unnrealistic deadlines and little support. Managers seemed disconnected from the actual time and effort needed to complete the tasks.
