[quote=Anonymous]I also felt this way in the past early in my career, but realized the problem was not me; my direct supervisors were holding me back. I've had bosses who pretended to be my best friends but were very passive aggressive, competitive and self-serving. They never let me make any decisions and when I did, they micromanaged the shit out of them to prove their authority over me. They would never give me constructive feedback or help me grow. As a result, my self-esteem plummeted and I eventually plateaued and left the position. Luckily, at my current job I have a very supportive boss who is a real mentor. She sets actual parameters, checks in when needed, and gives me autonomy when needed. Finally I am flourishing! Don’t give up OP! Sometimes it’s not you, it’s them![/quote]
