Jz9786's journey

I work at a company where I've noticed a troubling trend. Since January, the minimum performance metrics have been steadily increasing, and now they're set to rise again significantly in July. It feels like the expectations are becoming unmanageable, and I’m worried about burning out. In response, I’ve started looking for new job opportunities, but I’m facing a tough market. The positions that are equivalent to mine require more experience than I currently have, and many of them offer lower salaries than what I’m making now. Even within my own company, I see that they’ve raised the experience requirements for job listings. It really feels like we’re stuck in a downward spiral, and I'm not sure how to navigate this situation.
