Work turning into nightmare

Hi all

I have been with a fairly niche technology company now for 3 years and work closely with client service/success manager.

I have enjoyed my role and my employees, but the company structure /organisation and other red flags is driving me insane.

Some examples:

  • Goals and strategies will change frequently, often weekly, after work has already been put into one goal/strategy, then you are back to square one
  • I work with a lot of senior management men (only female) and they will spend the calls/meetings arguing with each other and trying to get one over someone else, which is a waste of time
  • Calendar is now full of meetings which people are putting in to discuss overlapping topics to waste time, just to make themselves look busy or relevant
  • There are cashflow issues in the company and suddenly my role is being incredibly undermined to get new revenue in as quickly as possible (sales)

Throughout the last lot of months, I have just lost all motivation. E.g. I was informed a month ago that I was going on client visits, so I had to rearrange appointments, commitments outside of work to be told today (2 weeks to go) that I won't be going and I am instead needed another day (I refused).

At this point, I wouldnt even say no or be disheartened if I was made redundant and would welcome it.

I have a second stage interview for another job on Wednesday and for the most part, I want to run the hell out of my current job, but I also have a bit of a hold on my current company (probably in the false hope that things get better)

I suppose I am looking for some reassurances that trying to ace this interview and go somewhere else would be the best thing in this situation.

@ellie09 not really a dilemma tbh.
Ace the interview and make a decision then if they offer you the job.
If they don't no decision to make until the next time!
