Sadly, that's where the positive ends. As a woman owned company, and mostly female employees, I was so happy to apply and work there, sadly, it was not at all what I thought. I thought since the CEO was a woman, that she would be swift and ready to build up other women, especially ones younger than her and help them grow. I mean, her business is literally HR and helping companies navigate their employees correctly. But this was not the case. I constantly felt not good enough, put down, and blamed for things that weren't my fault. It's really sad because I LOVED the team and consultants, but I couldn't take the constant pressure with no guidance from the highest power. I honestly hated leaving, but it was causing me a lot of bad mental days.
I felt like I was always on my own. I would be given tasks and then told to figure it out, but then told I should have asked for help. It was just very confusing, very hurtful, and not the amazing, empowering, and women leadership job I thought it would be. I hate to leave words like this, but based on my experience, I have to. If you want feel uplifted and appreciated, this may not be the place for you.
