Well I have an upcoming interview, but if I don't get this one, then maybe will consider it.
I know people will say I'm stupid for wanting to leave and that I don't know how lucky I am and so on.
I'm an AO and earn less than 25k, I'm mid 30s, for a single adult living alone it's really not a lot to afford housing costs and so on.
I do overtime every week to earn more but they expect higher stats for it, and after tax it's not a significant difference.
I do really like the WFH and the pension is very good, but i just don't feel happy there anymore.
Besides there's only one person I'm close to, I have tried to make friends, invite people to things and bring in cakes etc. But whilst everyone's nice, I can tell they aren't overly interested in me.
The work they expect for an AO role is ridiculous, I was previously in an AA role and the jump is incredible. They're also now taking EO level decisions and allowing AOs to approve them.
I'd like something nearer 30,000, and I'm just ready to move on. I've only been there just under a year so hardly any time.
As I say I may do well in this interview and leave in a few months, I've already been rejected from 4 so far though. Has anybody left and not regretted it?
