What 3 things make you feel like quitting your current job

Stress of the job itself
workload
desire to do my own thing instead

The toxic pettiness of my team.
Boredom
Lack of autonomy.

I have quit, currently in my notice period

issues:

overwork caused by understaffing (which I know I am contributing to)
social isolation as a remote worker
ineffectual management

• My age (61). I've worked full time since I was 18 and I'm done now.

• Inability to go part time.

• Annual leave allowance isn't bad but now I want MORE!

The last point could be solved if the second point could be solved. I do actually enjoy my job and my colleagues are brilliant.

Micromanaging
Being forced to return to the office when I'm definitely more productive at home.
Having to make small talk with colleagues when I could be at home working in peace.

I'm only a month and a half into this one, but the previous one was:

• micromanaging team lead (particularly challenging in a small team, as there was no diluting it.)
• low salary
• nowhere to progress to

Everyone else thinks it's because it was an hour away, but I only had to be in the office once a week, and I mostly didn't mind that at all, as it was a lovely site and near the sea.

New job is fewer hours, 2 miles from home, substantially higher salary, plus a much larger company, so more chances to move on internally. The bickering middle-aged men bit tiresome at times, but I also saw an apology today, so I think it'll be okay.

If I got called back into the office.
Slooooooooow progress (a meeting was cancelled before I gave birth and still hasn't been rearranged - my son is 15m old).
I'm only on a fixed term contract, so would jump ship for a permanent role.

I actually love working there though. It's super flexible, and zero stress. For me, not for other people. There was a catty email chain ten messages long going off in my inbox yesterday, which was very funny to watch from the sidelines.

The pay
The pay
The pay

Colleagues who do fuck all and when they occasionally produce 5 mins of work, we’re all meant to be supportive and clap and cheer because they got off their arse like one time. They do not clap and cheer for you continually getting off your arse but if you stop they give you no end of shit for it.

The work is hard but also boring and pointless. So much effort goes into hardly noticeable outcomes that no one really cares about. Expressing this is career suicide.

Having absolutely no say in anything but being in a role which is a catch all role so you end up doing your job and some/ all of the work of other roles around you for no thanks or recognition.

The work, which is both difficult and tedious most of the time.
The pay.
The uncertainty of self-employment.

Unfortunately I can't quit because I would never find anything else I could physically do from home with the flexibility to fit around my shite health.

Ridiculous and complex risks
Ludicrous hours for no extra pay
Toxic manager

Incompetent and lazy line manager
Senior mangers' cronyism
My team's ever increasing workload also having the work tine manager's supppsed to do dumped because they are "busy".

Workload/unreasonable expectations

Micromanagement

Senior Management Team making unnecessary changes to systems/processes that work & refusing to listen when things go wrong

Micromanagement - not regarding mistakes but e.g unnecessary follow up of email actions when they’re not directly involved.
Not been in the role that long but feeling constricted by the weird rules in place around flexi etc.
Some strange team dynamics.

boredom
lack of growth opportunities
a lack of experienced individuals

Crap salary
No promotion prospects
Zero consequences for people who are crap at their jobs

The flexibility and work life balance is excellent though...

Lazy people
Management not dealing with lazy people
I only have those two

I meant no maternity pay!

Directors who listen to a load of reasons why something won't work in practice, decide they want it done anyway and then want you to explain why it went wrong when it inevitably does.

People not delivering the actions they committed to yet still expecting you to deliver yours, even though theirs are a pre-requisite for yours.

Can't come up with another as I genuinely love my job, just would be good if I could get on with doing it properly.

Bitchy Colleagues
My daily Injuries (SEN Clients)
Low Pay

That I would get almost free childcare and universal credit if I don't work as much as I do now

Glacial pace of decision making on important delivery stuff whilst senior leaders are instead busy churning out another bloody new, shiny "strategy" and "delivery plans"

Utterly unachievable workload but someone's always having a go (including volunteers, "supporters" and the public because you are expected to be a super-saint when you work for charity)

If another role comes along where I could make more impact

No mat leave,
Baby is 6 months, haven't heard from manager since I updated her on my 36 week scan,
Been told I'm needed back sooner rather than later.

Surprise, I'm not going back.

I like my job, but if the flexibility (part time hybrid) was removed I would quit on the spot.

Unmanageable workload- I'm exhausted
Long commute. WFH not allowed.
Salary on lower end for my experience

I'm actively looking for new role due to first two
