Today was my last day at a job at a company I've worked at for over 13 years, the last 3 years under a toxic bully manager and no raise for 3 years. The company is one of those "too big to fail" companies so I began applying for positions internally two years ago, interviewed for a handful of roles only for them to hire someone else internally, usually younger than me. (I'm in my late 40s). Last year right before Covid hit, I began applying externally to no avail. I think a lot of companies stopped hiring due to uncertainty with Covid. As the year went on, it took all I had to stay positive and not lose sight of my self-worth and confidence in my skills in spite of working for a toxic manager even when we switched to work from home. This year things picked up as I saw more and more postings on Indeed, Glassdoor and LinkedIn. I applied to my new company for the 4th time in response to a new posting and was contacted by the recruiter. (I really wanted to get into this new company!). I moved on to interview with the hiring manager and team in February, and got an offer the first week of March. After I signed the offer letter and passed the background check, I gave my two weeks' notice. My manager was shocked/surprised that I found a new job externally with a huge salary bump ($21k increase). The last two weeks have been wonderful.
I wanted to share my story and encourage others to stay positive and to not give up. During my year of searching externally, I learned a lot from r/jobs, r/resumes and r/careerguidance. Through these subs, I learned about Jobscan, writing an ATS friendly resume and just knowing there are others out there in similar situations (working for toxic managers). Even if you've been in the workforce for over twenty years like me, you can still change jobs and companies to improve your situation.
