From what you have described there might be a bit of a harsh truth that no one has said to you in a straight up way. Reading between the lines, they are saying you are poor at communicating task progress, which means probably stuffing other people around causing workplace inefficiencies and pissed off coworkers, because they don’t know the status of things. All jobs have boring components. Doing just the fun bits of your job and leaving the boring bits for others will lead to resentment from coworkers in every single workplace. Changing jobs won’t help this. I think you have to look at it from a team perspective. So I reckon use the grace period they are giving you to turn things around, it will be an asset for the rest of your career if you can overcome this. If I have misread the situation very sorry! Am just trying to help with another perspective.
It is an issue that’s come up in roles before and I don’t know the best way to manage it. I’ve had jobs where I’ve been really good at getting things done and following up with people, and some where it just hasn’t worked out.
I’ve had jobs where I get the service request, do it, let the stakeholder know, and things are all good. Maybe it’s because I need to work on multiple steps within a project that’s throwing me off.
I’m trying to be better at things today but I just feel like I’m jumping around between things and not getting anything done and I’m not sure how to structure my workload better to at least feel like I’m managing it better
