You’re two or three months into your new job. You have the right skill sets, your new boss is happy with your performance, the pay is good, and the commute is easier, BUT…

You don’t really fit in. Your co-workers are always talking about last night’s episode of whatever, they go to lunch together a couple of times a week, meet at the bar around the corner on Thursday evenings, go to sporting events, etc. Many of them work until 8:00 each night to make up for the lost productivity during the day. You like to get home earlier, do your work during conventional work hours, but your co-workers continually draw you out of your office to voice an opinion about this and that, even though you don’t like sharing your opinions about this and that.

Despite trying to convince yourself otherwise, you conclude the job isn’t a good fit. So now what?

• Assess if there are changes you can make to fit in better
• Speak to your mentor or a trusted colleague (from a different company)

• Revisit your resume
• Begin the job search process again

• Wait for things to change and get better on their own
• Bad mouth the company, your team, boss, etc.
• Take the first job that comes along

Ultimately, you must be professional in how you handle yourself during this period of uncertainty. Being professional may very well mean opening a dialogue with your boss. “It’s been two months and I am finding the position isn’t quite what I was anticipating.” Give your boss the opportunity to help you. Being professional also means giving as much notice as possible. The company invested money into you when they hired you, and a new hire will mean more expense. By giving enough notice, you can avoid leaving the company in the lurch.

当你寻找一份新工作时，要密切关注公司文化。问一些具体的问题，以确保你不会有重复的经历。试着和现在的员工谈谈，了解公司文化。

没有人喜欢自己犯错的感觉，但这种情况确实会发生。你对这种情况的反应将决定你现在和未来的老板对你的看法。专业是必须的；没有它，你会被认为是不成熟的，一个令人遗憾的雇佣等等。

不要成为那样的人。做一个没有留下，但离开时受人尊敬的人。

最好的，
