Evals are coming out this week, anxious as I hear mgmt will be trimming down and with the terrible job market. Relationship with boss has been distant and tenuous last year.
Anyone else been down this path, or currently experiencing it, please offer coping mechanisms and appreciate words of wisdom. |

1. Polish your resume and start looking for a new job. Taking action will make you feel in control and give you a plan for the worst case, which will feel better.
2. Do some honest self reflection on your job, what your boss wants, what you can do to improve the relationship. Pick the most concrete things and start doing them, now. If it's a longer term idea, think about how to bring it up in your review. |
