Hello readcash people!
It's been a while. Sorry for being inactive and I'm happy I am back again on writing. I was just so stressed at my work now and normally what happens is that when I'm out at work, I sleep right ahead. Yes, you read that correctly, sleep right ahead because for now I'm working at home and my bed is at the back of my working station. So anytime I can lay down on my bed most especially if it's available or no calls for a couple of minutes, nah I just lay down on my bed.
I am very thankful and grateful that I am correctly working at home because the fact is not all are given this kind of privilege. Others may have a hard time looking for a job now due to this pandemic we are facing because there are a lot of companies not accepting new applications or the worst case scenario are some companies are filing bankruptcy.
Anyhow, I have a common question to all you guys. Why do employees quit their jobs? Even though the COMPANIES gave them great opportunities and privileges. What triggers them to resign? Well, let me share with you my reasons why I resigned from my previous companies. By the way, I am writing this while I'm at work lol.
Disclaimer: I am not writing to give you reasons to quit your jobs. This is just based on my experience.
Reasons why people quit their jobs:
Salary/Compensation
In the BPO industry, this is the common reason why they quit. My first BPO experience was last 2014. I stayed in my first company for 3 years. I got promoted as being part of the support team however my salary was still the same. I handled more than 20 agents but my salary was the same when I was an agent. We even have thank you overtime (not paid). They did not give me a raise. I have no problem with my job, people at work only my compensation/salary. So I decided to resign from my job. At first, they did not allow me to quit and what they did they gave an allowance instead. I stayed for a couple months on that while job hunting. I already told my manager that in the event I got hired and the compensation and benefits are good, I quit and he said yes to that.
Management/Operations
This is the major reason why people in the BPO industry quit. I believe this will definitely applied to all. Indeed we really need a job to feed and sustained our daily needs but what if the management that you're working on had a very disrespectful and overly used people for their own benefits only? Let's say a non healthy employer? Would you stay because of the pay or quit because you know to your self that it is not healthy to you psychologically? In my experiences, I encountered these type of environment. It is really not healthy, emotionally and even physically. Sometimes it may end up to a decision that we never thought we can think about it. I quit to my previous job because of this reason as well. Others may think that it was a unwisely decision but for me it is not. I have a peace of mind right after that. You may start from scratch again but at least your mental state is in good condition.
My thoughts on this...
If you feel that you are no longer happy with your work and you feel that both mentally and physically not healthy anymore, you can quit your job. Yes, it maybe a difficult decision but rest assure it will give you peace of mind. You can still look for another opportunities as long as you have you self confidence and not losing yourself. Don't lose hope. Take care of your mental health. Don't let other abused you.
Thank you for reading my blog for today. I hope you learned something on this. We only live once so we better love ourselves and take care of it. Thank you again all. Until next time! 🙃
