I'm not an academic but work in HE in a professional faculty facing role. Over the last few years the pressure and expectations have increased to the point where I can't do the job effectively any more as I'm so stretched.
I have a manager who has recently started to criticise everything I'm doing and says I'm not putting enough effort into my work. I literally can't do anything more but worry that her constant criticism will lead other colleagues to think I can't do the job. I do have the support of my direct line manager but the environment is competitive and there is a definite feeling that you either cope or leave!
Would love to hear how you all manage with this level of stress as I know that HE is a very pressured environment wherever you're working...
