Working in a toxic position [View all]
I have been working for a company for 5 years and the last year, things have become toxic.
Threat to be fired if you don't perform, but refusing to provide a performance review.
Coworker who is rude, condescending and a little unstable making threats.
I have been looking on Indeed and LinkdIn for several months and out of the blue a head hunter called me about a position.
The commute is probably twice of my current commute.
I had the interview on Wednesday that lasted for 2 1/2 hours. I was shocked to have an interview that was that long.
The head hunter says an offer is imminent so I have make the decision.
The position would most likely require more hours, it a small company where everyone wears multiple hats. But sounds like it could be a rewarding job with interaction with people all around the world.
I am 64 with plans to work until I am 70. I don't do well sitting around the house.
Am I nuts in making a change so late in my career? You know what they say about the grass on the other side of the fence.
I have already written my resignation letter with a very scathing review of how I felt I had been treated.
Its only 6 years, RIGHT?
