Everything Promised in the Interview Disappeared Within Three Months
Pros
The office coffee was acceptable, and people were generally polite in passing.
Cons
• During hiring, there were claims of a clear path to team lead within two years, direct mentorship from the director, and ownership of major strategic initiatives, none of which ever happened. • After three months, the role remained unchanged from previous work, with no real attention to development, progress, or growth. • Emails about mentorship were met with vague responses that never led anywhere. • Two less experienced people were later promoted into lead roles, making it clear the earlier promises were not genuine. • The gap between what was said during hiring and what actually happened was complete and disappointing. • The promises made during interviews turned out to be the main reason the role was accepted, making the outcome especially frustrating.
