Giving up on newish role. How bad is having two short terms roles going to look to hiring managers?
I went from a top performer for 3 years at my first AE role in SaaS before our department was laid off. Since then, I've had two consecutive roles that have just been awful.
The first was a role that had absolutely no processes in place (first sales hire) where I left after 6 months, the second (current) I've been with for 8 months and it's awful. 80% of my day is account management (I'm an AE) and the rest are things I should have absolutely no responsibility for. It's a fairly large company but every day is chaos and my new manager is horrible and likely about to PIP me. Nothing makes sense 8 months in no matter how much I reach out for help and the service we provide our customers is awful.
I truly don't think I can stick it out any more. I start my day at 8 a.m. and finish by 8 p.m. most days just trying to stay on top of the constant client emails and problems but my new manager is furious I have been doing very little outbound, numbers suck, etc.. It's affecting my physical and mental health and I just can't do it anymore. How bad will it look if I have two short term jobs (less than a year) in a row on my resume?
