Imposter Syndrome
I need some advice or a heart to heart from someone who has been through my same position.
I was working for another big 4 and moved to another big 4. I was really good at my first job and had the support of my leadership behind me but with that comes working till 2am, not being able to eat food, sales quotas, and gained close to 40lb.
I decided to change my fate and move to another big 4 thinking it would be same type of work but a little more lax. I was hoping I join and I would have more time to absorb culture and go into office. But first week in I get added to a project, and I have to absorb another person’s work stream and they did a lot but no documentation or learning materials so I have to figure things out and sit in discovery acting like I know everything, but really I’m just a fraud filling in huge shoes. A big part of me is screaming to go back, another part of me is like I should career change cuz this is consulting in a nutshell, and another is you are an idiot just learn. Anyone been here before and what did you do to fix it?
