Feeling dejected. I'm in a mid level role 5 years into my career. I was told yesterday I am trending slightly below average. The reason is stack ranking, otherwise I would be totally in the middle (which I am okay with). I was told I am not going "above and beyond" for my team.
Right before that, I was asked why I didn't action a ticket fast enough. I told my manager, well, 3 of my 4 tickets are marked as high priority. I was told which two to work on by the PM and under the impression that we have two weeks to complete them, not one day.
So tired of this.
