Ah, yeah a union really isnβt an option. I work as a software developer, an industry in which unions donβt exist.
I appreciate the encouragement. My decision to leave hinges more on feeling like Iβve hit the ceiling of growth in my current position. Iβm the most senior developer on the team, so there are few opportunities to learn from others in my day to day.
Iβm definitely starting to send out rΓ©sumΓ©s. Weβll see what happens!
I'm sorry to hear there are no unions/lobbies for software developers. It was just an idea that came to my mind - unions would've made withholding bonuses due to bad management a big issue. My employer works with ver.di, one of the biggest german worker unions - they always get some slight benefits for us settled. This year, it was an inflation bonus.
I can totally understand your point - If you're the most skilled team member, but no one of the execs appreciates it, that becomes very frustrating soon. I can relate how you actually want to improve further, but there seems to be a hard ceiling limit in your way.
Fingers crossed for your resumes. I hear IT work is a bit of a wild ride in terms of the job market atm, but I hope you'll be successful in securing a satisfying job at a good place. ππ»
