Having been in my same IT role for a few years, I have been working towards being regraded, by working with my manager to on some agreed tasks to show I can cope. I was on the Grad scheme for 3 years and ended up in the same dept. moving around on different projects.
My manager has put forward my position twice, earlier in the year was told I haven't had enough time to prove myself, now I'm told I am too fixed in my views. This is despite some significant feedback from internal customers giving me a strong vote of confidence. And a long list of proof of what I have done, none of which was difficult, just slog slog slog for a whole year, which now seems a waste of effort!
I know I won't be regraded, no point in asking again, but where do I go from here? It has deflated my confidence My manager says I have done a great job. Lots of mixed messages. I am now feeling under pressure to find a new role because they may feel they need to get rid of a problem person, who won't be satisfied.
Has anyone been in this situation? And moved forward to a different role? Should I just take any role, just to get away from this dept, or is that a mistake? I would really appreciate a bit of hope, I feel lost!
