Are you in a job where the only way to move up is to get out? Is your role becoming obsolete, as the skills required are being replaced by technology? Are your colleagues given opportunities that you’re not?
對于你現(xiàn)在從事的工作,是否唯一的“上升”出路就是走人?你的職位是否正因為所需技能正被科技取代而變得過時?是不是你的同事獲得了機會,而你卻沒有?

If you answered yes to any of the above, there’s a good chance your career has come to a standstill. That’s right; you’re stuck in a dead-end job.
如果在上述問題中,你全部給出肯定的答案,那么你的職業(yè)生涯很可能進入了死胡同。沒錯,你已經(jīng)被困在了一份沒有前途的工作中。

Here are 20 tell-tale signs that you’re stuck in a dead-end job:
以下20個信號就能說明你已經(jīng)陷入了工作僵局:

(本文摘自福布斯中文網(wǎng))

sign1

No change in routine.
常規(guī)工作一成不變。

Your work offers no change in routine; it’s very mechanical. This is perhaps what you’d be doing five years from now, and your career goals do not align with what you currently do.
你的工作一成不變,非常機械化。也許五年之后你還在做著同樣的工作,而你的職業(yè)目標(biāo)和你當(dāng)前的工作并不一致。

If your position feels static and you don’t see a way to earn further responsibilities or get ahead even after offering ideas on the subject, you’re probably in a dead-end job.
如果你的職位毫無生氣,即使是在相關(guān)問題上出謀劃策,你都沒有得到器重或提拔,你也許就已經(jīng)陷入了一個沒有前途的工作里。

sign2

Your skills are not being tapped.
你的技能沒有被挖掘出來。

Your supervisor doesn’t tap into your skills set or go beyond what you’ve been contributing for quite some time. You may have been passed over for promotion –or your requests to take on more challenging projects have been ignored.
你的上司沒有挖掘你的技能,或者直接忽略了你長期以來做出的貢獻。你的晉升機會也許剛剛被否決掉——或者你的毛遂自薦被直接忽略。

sign3

No interest in knowing your goals.
他們對你的職業(yè)目標(biāo)毫無興趣。

You are not being asked about your professional goals or future plans.
他們從來不關(guān)心你的職業(yè)目標(biāo)或者未來計劃。

sign4

They don't support your career plan.
他們不支持你的職業(yè)生涯計劃。

You are asked about your career goals and plans, but the boss pays no attention to them.
他們也問到了你的目標(biāo)和計劃,但是你的老板對此不加理睬,或者不支持你去實現(xiàn)他們。

你的工作、上司與同事沒有給你帶來任何形式的挑戰(zhàn),整個工作氛圍都不鼓勵改變。

sign7

Your thoughts and opinions don't matter.
你的想法和貢獻不被重視。

Your voice is no longer heard and your opinions are no longer valued. Your boss may seem annoyed when you bring up new initiatives. In a 'no win job,' bosses often prefer that you don't rock the boat. At best, you find yourself forced to be a follower, which is tough if you're naturally a self-starter.
你的聲音被淹沒,你的意見不再被重視。當(dāng)你提出新的建議時,你的老板看上去會很惱火。在一個‘雙輸’的工作中,老板們通常希望你安守本分。你充其量只能被迫充當(dāng)一名追隨者,如果你本身很有主見,情況就會很棘手。

sign8

Your boss won't give you the time of day.
你的老板不肯安排與你見面。

You can’t get time with the boss to move projects forward. Your projects seem to get lost in the abyss. Essentially, you are being ignored out of a job; e-mails go unanswered and you’re lucky if you catch your boss in the restroom.
無法與你的老板見面,推進項目。你的項目似乎要在深淵中迷失了。事實上,你在工作中被忽略了;郵件沒有任何回復(fù),如果你在洗手間碰到你的老板,那么你是幸運的。

sign9

No change in pay, title, or responsibilities.
工資、職位和任務(wù)始終不變

You have been doing the same work for more than one or two years without a promotion, increase in pay, or increased responsibility. While some people may enjoy working on the same tasks, a tell-tale sign of a dead-end job is employees who are not being offered advancement or new training.
你做同一份工作的時間已經(jīng)超過一年或者兩年,而在此期間,沒有晉升、加薪和承擔(dān)更多的責(zé)任。一些人喜歡從事同樣的工作任務(wù),那怎么看是否是一份毫無前途的工作呢?——看員工有沒有得到晉升或者新的培訓(xùn)機會。

sign10

You lack motivation and enthusiasm.
你缺乏動力和積極性。

You get that Monday morning feeling nearly every day. “What you used to enjoy doing is no longer enjoyable.
你幾乎每天都感覺像是周一早晨。你過去喜歡做的事情已經(jīng)不會再使你感到愉快了。

No enthusiasm to get up and go to work is a sign you’re in a dead-end job. There’s no challenge, no opportunity that excites you at the workplace.

sign11

Attempts to change or improve your job are not welcomed.

Your values and the firm's values are not aligned.

或許存在文化差異,或是運營環(huán)境方面的矛盾,或是公民責(zé)任和職業(yè)道德之間的抉擇等等。無論如何,如果已經(jīng)確認其中存在不可調(diào)和的沖突,你們雙方都感到不舒服,那么你在這家公司的職業(yè)生涯不太可能再向前推進了。

sign13

You're not an asset to your team.
你不是你的團隊或者部門的一項資產(chǎn)。

You don’t feel like an important part of your team.
你感覺不到你對這個團隊的重要性。

sign14

Your company hires outside talent.
公司喜歡聘請外部“空降”人才。

You realize that the corporate culture is to bring in outside talent when high-level positions open up, instead of promoting from within.
你意識到當(dāng)高級別職位空缺的時候,公司的企業(yè)文化是引進外部人才,而不是從內(nèi)部提升。

sign16

Your employer is sinking.
公司江河日下。

You research and discover your company is not doing well. Profits are stagnant or down. The industry is not growing. Also, if your company is conducting numerous layoffs, and your desk is looking too clean from a lack of projects due to no fault of your own, you might be in a dead-end job. And do you really want to be with a firm that’s might tank, especially if little communication is being doled out?
你經(jīng)過一番了解,發(fā)現(xiàn)公司業(yè)績并不理想。利潤停滯不前甚至下滑。行業(yè)停止了增長。同樣,如果你的公司正在進行大量裁員,而你的辦公桌因為項目的缺乏而看上去太整齊(并且這并不是你的錯),那么你的工作或許已經(jīng)陷入了僵局。你真的希望留在一家瀕臨破產(chǎn)的公司,特別是幾乎沒有任何溝通交流的公司?

sign17

You're too comfortable.
你感覺太舒服了。

There’s a sense of too much comfort with the status quo.
對于現(xiàn)狀的滿足感已經(jīng)開始讓你產(chǎn)生不安。

Unfair pay.
不公平的薪資。

You’re not being compensated fairly. If you’re made to feel fortunate to receive a paycheck or that you’re being overpaid, those are red flags.
