My advice to anyone still working there, whether you are a manager of a small team, senior leader, individual contributor or intern is: if you believe in the current plan, process and/or the people driving it and believe you will be happy and have a positive impact, than by all means stay and give it your all.
If you don’t believe in the plan, people or feel fear-based pressure to stay: it’s time to build the skills and connections needed to seek new horizons. It’s not going to be easy, but you only have this one life. You owe it to yourself and those you care about to do all that you can to be the best version of you.
Reflect on a few possible paths including staying, and focus on how they make you feel. Hold onto that. Talk to the people you care about most about these feelings and see what advice they give...it might surprise you.
It’s a big world out there. If you haven’t found a good culture and niche that fits you, don’t be afraid to keep searching. You can still remain friends with those you enjoyed working with most. I wish you all the best of luck.
I copied the highlight from thread +19re85NY here, because I think this is a great advice. Anyone else have any tips to share for those of us staying here?
