What key challenges are you currently facing in your role?

Hello Community members!

I haven't asked these questions for a while, and two years since I asked How are you all doing? so a timely check in, I think. 

What key activities are you currently completing in your role?

What key challenges are you currently facing in your role?

What challenges can you see coming around the corner in the next few months?

What is keeping you up at night? (hopefully nothing, but...)

Really interested to read your comments.

  • Interesting questions, I never stop to ask myself or reflect on my work.

    What key activities are you currently completing in your role?
    Policy and benefit changes and redundancies sadly.

    What key challenges are you currently facing in your role?
    Redundancies and not having my input heard, it's completely demotivating. i'm expected to only be a 'yes' person.

    What challenges can you see coming around the corner in the next few months?
    Day one rights, I find new employees tend to show their true colours after probation periods, and you would normally have up to two years of employment to iron out bad habits or dismiss, but now they're taking that away so it will be a long process to dismiss any one who is mediocre to poor performing.

    What is keeping you up at night?
    Whether it's risky to change companies now after having built up trust and confidence here which allows me the flexibility I need for working full time and having a child. I have also built up a good salary package after being with the company for so long, but I feel held back with them not wanting to embrace anything new.

    Pros and Cons in every position I guess, and better the devil you know perhaps.
