From "I am going to do my best" to "I am going to do the bare minimum to keep the job". lol but kidding aside it happened to me in the corporate world when doing your best is being reward with more work with no additional pay or promotion. So after that it's the bare minimum.

Hala ako din, 2017 was like halos 12 - 16 hours ako nagtatrabaho para magpa-impress sa mga Boss at halos lahat ng mga ka officemate ko kinukumpitensya ko haha, fast forward 2023 until now, bare minimum na lang binibigay ko kasi cguro napag-aralan ko kung paano patakbuhin ang business nila at so far wala pa silang mahanap na kapalit kahit siraan pa ako ng mga officemates ko haha.

The reward for doing a good job is more jobs. Lol
Hindi nirereward yung super efficient work. May time dati 4 hours e tapos ko na tasks for the day. So i had 4 hours na doing nothing. Napansin ng kabilang lead. Kung ano-ano dinagdag sa workload ko pero wala sa JD ko. Nagresign nalang ako. Di ko tinuro yung work hacks ko nung turnover. Bala sila.

Kaya ako better na may quota based ung part ng pay ko. Dati kasi nagbibigay ng raise mga companies when they see that you are efficient. Konting konti nalang ang ganun so better na hawak ko nalang ang magiging pay ko through a quota based commissions.

Climbing the corporate ladder. Being sipsip hoping to earn promotions and salary increase are all dead in 2024.

Kaya ngayon, from always excelling or going beyond what is being required from me sa trabaho… I am just doing what really needs to be done. No pressure. Kasi naexperience ko rin na ginalingan ko pero dinagdagan work ko pero others na same level ko no stress hahahah.

I remember how I dreamed of being a team leader. Gusto ko talaga mag handle ng team. I eventually did and it was okay until just this year, I became a project manager. Sinabi ko sa sarili kong nakakapagod pala, minsan hindi yung subordinates mo ang may prob kundi ang management mismo, kasama mo sa project, etc. kakapagod. Yung mga taong naturingan ma mas matagal pang naging manager sa akin, sila pa yung parang walang natutunan sa experience nila.

Magteten years na rin ako sa kumpanya at redundancy nalang din yung hinihintay ko. Naredundiate na yung iba kong kateam nitong taon lang, and hopefully soon, yung team naman namin. Ayoko rin magresign kasi maganda shift ko at magaan yung work pero tangina gusto ko ng growth at gusto ko iexplore yung ibang career opportunities na pwede kong tahakin pero natatakot ako magresign kasi di ako sure kung makakakuha pa ko ng trabahong gaya ng trabaho ko ngayon na magaan at malaki ang bigayan. 🤣
Mababayaran ko rin ng buo yung condo ko at makakapahpahinga pa ko ng isang buwan pag nabayaran ako ng redundancy pay plus retirement. And I am just 34! HAHAHA

Happens when you get questioned to even utilize the leaves in the first place.

I can relate. I was even a candidate for promotion. But mental health issues due to a tragedy in the family manifested at a wrong time and got in the way. It was a slow burn, at the same time I was doing a lot thinking maybe if I can distract myself with work, things would get better until I'm all burned out. Then add relationship breakup to the mix and it was a recipe for a disaster.
Nawalan ng gana and pake. I just do my day to day tasks pero parang wala yung soul sa gawa ko, you get what I mean? Buti na lang I was given a chance and got back on my feet. Ngayon not naman walang pake pero more of chill lang muna while still performing.

I don't like kissing ass eh, but I like getting paid so I'm kind of in the middle. plus I want to have a comfortable life. note: comfortable, not rich rich.
mas loyal ako sa sarili ko and sa well being ko hehe once I sense toxicity and shit sa workplace, I pack my things and get out of there 😂
so win-win for me, I get increases while I'm in the same company, but I also get the benefit of job hopping which are better offers.

Nagpabida for 2 years tapos walang promotion but I was praised by the big bosses. Then pandemic started- stagnant na lang, walang increase, dagdag work, papapasukin ka kahit kasama mo lang sa office is yung janitor. Tinanong ako last year if gusto ko pa din daw ba na tumaas yung rank ko, sabi ko ayoko na and okay na ko sa position ko. Low position low salary pero ang dami kong hawak na projects na iba pa sa work ko mismo. After a month nagresign na ko. I heard until now hindi pa nila ko napapalitan and kinukuha pa din nila ako.

Disillusion ang tawag diyan, it happens with love, work, money, and achievements (supposing hindi ka clinically depressed or may ADHD plus another symptom). There are different levels for each person. Yung mga talagang feel nila at isninabuhay ang ugali na mabilis sila magsawa... iba naman... Those amount to 37% of the population, medyo lack of intrinsic discipline and grit ang dapat iblame. Then, there are people who HAVE grit and meet their goals, are time bound, methodical, and relentless, kahit bagyo sumisisid sa baha just for the sake of their personal goals and then they hit their goal, like saving 1M, buying a house, living a happy life with a retirement fund and a beach house. These people who tend to finish, experience naman their own version of this once they hit major life goals. Parang pucha wala na akong maisip habulin, para saan pa ang mga efforts ko ngayon? They find it hard to realign and start again and fall into a cycle of not knowing what to do next. Pwede ring drugs, may mga functional addicts who take stimulants i.e. shabu to keep functioning at a high level, pag sobrang taas na ng tolerance ng katawan and no amount would satisy them anymore, thats the start of their downfall, which hits rock bottom pretty hard.

Present! During my first job, I already learned that the reward for every job well done is more work. No such thing as OT Pay - only OTY. Since then, bare-minimum worker nlng ako. Meaning, kung anong nakalagay sa job description, hanggang dun lang ako. You get what you pay for. No more going over and beyond for a job. Nag-oOT pa minsan-minsan but only if necessary talaga (like mag crash ang business operations). Otherwise, it is tomorrow's task na. Nowadays, achievable na ang work-life balance ko and less stress for me.

Never gonna go back to pure freelancing. I still do freelance work from time to time, but only as a side income.
Could be because Im one of the lucky people who managed to climb the "ladder". Not yet at the top, but Im definitely at a higher and better spot than I was when I was just a corporate drone.

This happens, lalo na kung ang laging may recognition at reward na natatanggap mga pasaway na empleyado, yung mga totoong nagtatrabaho ang nagiging outcast dahil hindi sipsip sa mga boss na kupal.
Sa company na ang turing sa empleyado nila numbers lang, as long na nakakapag produce ka ng ideal na numbers na hinahanap ng management, kahit sa questionable na paraan mo naattain ang result papalakpakan ka.
Kaya maraming nawawalan ng gana dahil sa bs, nagtatrabaho na lang dahil kailangang kumita ng pera, wala nang pakialam sa kumpanya na wala namang pakialam sa kanila.

Nagsimula ako sa pagiging bibo na ang dami ko kaya at alam gawin sa opisina kaya pinapagawa sakin, hanggang sa umabot sa puntong hindi ko na alam pagtinatanong sakin kasi alam ko na mangyayari.

Been in corp for almost 8yrs. and I experienced as well yung mga pangako ng high position or position na gusto ko talaga pero para makuha yun, I was offered to act as an intern for quite awhile then kaboom maghhire ng external for the position and back to same shit ako. Since then tinamad na ako then made a transition to freelance.
There are pros and cons siyempre pero I am somehow much happier right now compared before. Pero, grumabe minsan yung procrastination ko na minsan feeling ko may adhd ako. Hahaha

Alam mo naman sa Pinas, the more na magaling ka, the more work without extra pay plus yung na promote yung kasama mong chill at sipsip, kasi daw hindi ka marunong mah socialize 😂😂😂

Super. I'm a teacher. Akala ko mas gaganahan ako pumasok sa public school kasi mas mataas sweldo at maikli lang ang oras pero hindi. Sa sobrang toxic ng sistema, nawala na yung "hopeful and excellent" self ko. Sobrang hate na hate ko na pumasok sa school na parang dinadrag ko nalang sarili ko para bumangon. I'm hopeless.

Yes, this is me. When i started, goal ko makapa yung trabaho and maging indispensable. Pero ngayon, I don't care if matanggal. I have brief periods na nakokonsensya and nagsisipag pag natatambakan na, pero madalas iniisip ko na i-let go ako.

me after being rejected for a new role by our ex-manager na kupal. gusto ko lang naman mag explore para mas marami akong matutunan about the products of our company kasi external hire ako. pero pinigilan nya yung career growth ko. and now that i feel stuck in my current role and i'm already emotionally resigned, bare minimum work nalang ako. since 2023.

I’m the type of person who likes to climb the corpo ladder. I like the attention and recognition I get. They praise me for being a performer etc.
BUT. Just this year narealize ko na it’s all just words. After 2 years of working, di lang man inoffer sakin ang promotion and they opened the position so that internal and external yung mag apply. Syempre ayaw ko din mag apply since nakakahiya. Even if they are testing me.
After that, I started quiet quitting and am now looking for a job na malilipatan

10 years in, haven’t really related to it. To be honest though I don’t work to be at the top of the corporate ladder, I work to learn things and help out my good colleagues for the fun of learning their work.
Then either my good colleagues are gone or my growth is stunted I resign and move on to a different journey. I usually only join startups though because I consider corporate boring.

You guys actually wanted to climb?
Kidding aside, i never dreamed of such. I always knew having a high position would mean more stress even if the pay is high. My father (rest his soul) did great at his job even if it wasnt managerial and still got sick due to stress and eventually contracted cancer. What more a high position?
I might not dream big but i know ill be happier staying normal and enjoying my hobbies and life in general. The most i want to grow in my career is only up to enough for a peaceful life. Nothing more. Granted, capitalism and politics make life harder and harder everyday, but ill figure out a way.

im already at the top of the corpo ladder because we own a small biz and what i can tell you is, its not really worth it, at least in the philippines.
dealing with politicians, suppliers, etc
the bigger you get, the bigger they get
the harder you worker, the more money they earn.
I'm paying the government twice now, one for my salary, and one for my business earnings
(and we arent even earning that much)
for honest businesses to be truly big is impossible(almost). , you have to do a lot of shady things and deal with shady people. i have yet to hear the true story of the sys, the coquancos, the tan, the villars on how they amassed such wealth. sure magaling sila maghandle ng pera, kung dati may 1m sila, ngayon 100b na. pero they never tell the story in between.
example na lang yung mga outsourcing business na yan, na more than 10x kinukuha sa clients, tapos patak patak sa totoong nagtatrabaho. di mo sila masisisi, kasi sasabihin nila marami sila kailangan bayaran, at may lfiestyle sila na imamaintain(e.g. million dollar house, multiple super cars), bitches etc etc. you can bulild your own but you will never be in the same league as them unless you mimic their bad practices that earn them money.

I realized na hindi ako magiging manager after a few years of working in my current company because of 1 thing. Language barrier. Kaya I stopped aiming for the position but kept aiming for the pay 😁

me, lol i worked my way up from being a data analyst > training associate > senior trainer > senior team lead > account manager all because i was making up for being the only undergrad sa group of friends ko, that was the only way i could validate the FOMO. But after 5 + years of validating AND being responsible for people in the corporate world, i decided to just stop and leave, now i worked as a general VA and mainly focused on myself and my client. This has been the best I’ve felt in a long time. Sure lower pay but by God I can sleep peacefully and I do not have to think about other people’s problem anymore…

Currently ganyan un situation sa amin. Politics between the higher ups boiled over to the point na lahat kami anytime pwede masisante. Initially eager kami lahat to work. Pero lately, parang 'is it worth it?' un pakiramdam. Parang para saan pa if anytime pwede ka ilayoff dahil sa suspected 'ally' ka ng one side. Tangina.

I'm in this stage right now. I guess I learned to shift my focus more on my life outside of work, especially after 2022, what I can say is an unpleasant year. Plus, I'm at a point in my life where climbing up the corporate ladder isn't the priority anymore.
