Ep 11: Red Flags In The Workplace
How do I ask for a pay rise? Am I the only one feeling like this? How do I know when it's time to leave my job?
In this special episode of Wing It, Aiysha and Yvonne discuss the pit falls of entering the working world as a newbie, whether that be a school leaver or graduate. Knowing when to say no, the difference between not showing "resilience" vs. being taken advantage of and the importance of gut feelings are just some of the hurdles we have had to face when leaving university and starting work as a young adult. Confidence and awareness are of course things that come with time and experience but we hope this episode helps you to identify some of the red flags that you'll definitely want to watch out for when making decisions about careers, managers, and companies.
We wanted to summarise the red flags that we've previously encountered in the workplace, and of course, we want to hear if there's any more that you think the Wing It community should be made aware of!
