Hey there, I’m stuck in a job where my work isn’t measured, and it’s affecting my career growth. I’m a data scientist, and my current company doesn’t measure the financial impact of my work. It’s frustrating because I feel like I’m not able to showcase my value, and it’s holding me back from moving to a new company. I hate the culture here, and I want to leave, but I’m worried that my lack of measurable achievements will make it hard for me to get hired elsewhere.
I’m not sure what to do. Should I try to create my own metrics or find ways to measure the impact of my work? Or should I focus on building a portfolio of my projects and hope that it will be enough to impress potential employers? I’d love to hear from others who have been in similar situations.
It’s not just about the metrics, though. It’s also about feeling valued and recognized for my work. When my work isn’t measured, it feels like it’s not important or impactful. I’m hoping to find a way to break free from this cycle and find a job where my work is valued and recognized.
