I don't like my current job, but I'm afraid that it's not as good as my current job. What should I do?

I have known Xiaoyu for a year and a half, and I have been in the workplace for more than a year, from an internship to a full-time employee.

From being full of fighting spirit at the beginning, to now "as long as I don't make mistakes, I can get off work on time", he is not negative about his current work, but he is definitely not positive.

But if I stop and change, I can't make up my mind, so I've been feeling unhappy lately.

In fact, where are the jobs that are 100% enjoyable?

Just as there is no couple who never fights, "likes" and "dislikes" always cross over.

However, if a person really decides to leave, then in a high probability, he has summed up the shortcomings and deficiencies of the job, in order to strengthen his beliefs and avoid wandering around.

At this time, if you communicate with them, most of what you hear is:

I feel like I have no room for improvement

income is too low

The industry is going downhill

my leader is xx

The relationship between the company is too complicated and the heart is tired...

At this time, it can basically be judged that in his balance, resignation accounts for most of the proportion.

People who only vaguely say "I don't like it" but have difficulty saying "why" are basically not at the point where they have to go.

Their problems are often “disadvantages” encountered in some work, such as encountering unfriendly customers, a project that is not going well, wanting a salary increase but not mentioning it, or encountering difficult colleagues, or, Just because I'm a little tired.

At this time, there are 3 methods you can refer to:

Go out for a vacation, take a walk, and relax in a different environment;

Find a few friends in the industry to chat, have a meal, or listen to other people's unhappiness and embarrassment, and find a sense of balance; or broaden your mind, maybe you will have unexpected results;

Participate in various trainings and learn something, which can not only consume the spare time, but also improve your skills. Even if you really choose to go, you will need more skills.

If you have tried all three methods, but you still can’t get rid of the idea of ​​leaving, or you still don’t like it, then you should think about it carefully, summarize the specific reasons for your dislike, and be prepared to change jobs, including How to deal with the various risks you will face when leaving.

After all, there is a lot of "uncertainty" in changing jobs.

E.g:

You need to deal with a period of funding vacancies.

—— Judging from the current market situation, it may have been necessary to prepare for "three months" in the past, but now it is best to calculate it as "six months".

You need to be prepared to adapt to a new job position and a different style of work, a different leader and a different co-worker, and even a different subordinate. In particular, if you are an airborne leader, you may be excluded and calculated by the original departmental power faction...

Chances are you need to move to save yourself the hassle of transportation.

Generally, the salary of job-hopping will increase, but if the situation is not good, it is not necessarily, it is likely to be flat.

Faced with new KPIs, it may be heavier than before.

If you change to a different industry, you must learn while working, be prepared to devote yourself to work for a period of time, including time, energy and consumption, and be prepared to stay up late and work overtime when necessary.

These are not unfounded worries. It is still necessary to pass all possible risks in advance, and then act after thinking about it clearly.

There are no special circumstances - for example, you are not bad at all, and you come out to experience life. It is best not to give up easily and leave yourself with no choice.

However, I am not too worried. As long as there are measures to deal with the risks, it is not a big problem.

Anyway, the worst case is "failure to pass the probationary period", after all, if you are fired during the probationary period, you will not be able to get compensation.

Faced with the choice of the company, think about it, what do you want to gain from this job?

I want a bigger income

an opportunity to lead a team

are interested in a specific industry

Or do you want the company's endorsement on your resume?

All of these are possible.

Especially the fourth point, which many career planning courses would like everyone to consider.

In the UK, the BBC is known as the Whampoa Military Academy in the media industry because, as long as you have work experience in the BBC, it is very easy to find a job in other media companies. This is an industry endorsement.

But correspondingly, the BBC's salary is not high.

Many people have accepted this. They don't want to stay at the BBC all their lives, but they want to learn their skills here at the BBC and then go to places where they are more interested.

If you have already identified several target companies, it is best to inquire about the current situation of these companies in advance. Is it a progressive company that is on the rise, a big platform that is in full swing, or a company that is still in decline but still has a good brand and is still worth visiting?

It is said that "pigs on the tuyere can also fly", the overall development of the industry in the homeopathy will be better, and it will be longer relatively.

Work is work. Whether it is a new job or an old job, many problems cannot be solved by changing jobs, so in the end, it is unavoidable to persuade:

Stay calm, restrain your impulses, and don't make rash words.
