人人都希望能够以积极的方式开始一份新工作,对大多数新员工而言,这意味着在入职后的前几周,竭尽全力打动老板,证明你对工作全力以赴。

但一位职业教练却颠覆了这种心态,她认为,在新工作中百分百投入,将会带来灾难。

TikTok用户@badass.careers是一位职业成就与求职教练,号称自己在人力资源领域从业超过13年。她警告成就非凡的职场新人称,他们为自己在公司的未来职业发展,设定了不切实际的高标准。

她在视频说明中表示:“听起来违反直觉,因为你想打动自己的新上司,对吗?大错特错。”这条视频的观看量达到34万。

节省力气,用在真正有需要的时候

她解释称,入职新工作的前几周将为你的工作能力设立一个先例。她说:“你在告诉老板和同事应该如何对待你。”

因此,如果你不希望新老板期待你经常加班,或者给你安排超出你在工作日的工作极限的任务,@badass.careers建议从最开始,就要避免给老板发出你可以这样做的信号。

她警告道:“如果你总是加班,逆来顺受,总是超出预期,从一开始就能够110%的投入,这就会变成你的基本常态。这种状态难以持久。”

相反,她建议在入职新工作后仅投入约80%至95%的精力,为你所期待的未来工作状态奠定基础。

在真正有需要的时候,你可以投入100%甚至更多精力。@badass.careers说道:“例如在重要的演示或者团队陷入危机时。”

“如果你总是全力以赴,你最终就会感到倦怠。保护好自己的精力,从长远来看,能够让你在工作上有更好的表现。”

早期100%投入的好处与坏处

为了延长职业寿命,新员工应该控制在工作中投入的精力,这一点引起了许多观看者的共鸣。他们感觉自己在之前入职新岗位时总是表现得超出预期,结果出现了职业倦怠。

一位用户写道:“天哪,为了证明自己,我最初总是会110%的投入工作,然后我感受到保持这种状态的压力,不知道应该如何拒绝。”

另外一位用户也表示:“真希望八个月前入职新工作的时候,我可以看到这条视频。”而现在,他们很难打动上司。“上司说我没有‘全力以赴’和‘始终如一’地投入工作。”

另外一位用户称,公司总是期待你随着自己的进步能够设定更高的目标,因此新员工全力投入新工作,就只能以超出其能力上限的程度,更加努力地工作。

他们解释称:“我投入了100%,公司会要求你付出150%甚至200%的努力。现在我每天工作14个小时到16个小时,[而且]负责两位管理者的工作量。”

但也有人不认同这种观点,他们认为给老板留下好印象可以带来回报。

一位用户写道:“在入职新工作时,你会成为公司持续观察的对象,这正是证明你是这份工作的适当人选的绝佳时机。”还有一位用户说:“我因为在工作中全力以赴,在三个月后获得了升职。”

与@badass.careers的理论相反,另外一位用户解释称,在工作初期积极投入,能够获得老板的信任,随着时间的推移,人们可以减少在工作中的投入,但并不会设定过高的标准,最终导致职业倦怠。

他们写道:“我发现在前六个月110%投入工作,让我获得了能够按照需要灵活安排工作的公平待遇,没有任何人会感到不满。”(财富中文网)

Everyone wants to start a new job on the right foot, and for most new hires, this means putting your all into impressing the boss and proving your unwavering commitment for the first few weeks after onboarding.

But one career coach has turned that mentality on its head and insists giving 100% to a new job is a recipe for disaster.

The TikTok user @badass.careers, a career fulfillment and job search coach who claims to have over 13 years in HR under her belt, warned high-achieving new starters that they’re setting the bar for their future career at the company unrealistically high.

“Sounds counterintuitive because you want to impress your new manager, right? Wrong,” she captioned the video which has captured over 340,000 viewers.

Save your energy for when you really need it

“You teach people how to treat you,” she began while explaining that your first few weeks in the role will set the precedent for your work capacity.

So if you don’t want your new boss to expect you to pull overtime shifts often or take on more than you can physically do in a working day, @badass.careers suggests avoiding signaling that you’re up for that from the get-go.

“If you are pulling extra hours, saying yes to everything, going above and beyond, 110% straight out the gate, that’s actually going to become your baseline normal,” she warned. “That’s damn hard to sustain.”

Instead, she recommends setting out how you expect to continue by only putting in about 80% to 95% of your energy into the new job.

Then you can dial up your efforts to 100% or more when you really need to. “For important presentations, or if your team is in crisis mode,” @badass.careers says.

“If you’re firing on all cylinders all of the time, you’re just going to end up burned out. Protect your energy and you’ll perform better at work [in the] long-term.”

Giving 100% early on: The pros and cons

The notion that new hires should reign in their efforts for career longevity resonated with many viewers who felt like they’d over-delivered in previous new roles before getting burned out.

“Omg I always would go 110% at first to prove myself and then feel pressure to keep it up and not know how to turn it down,” one user wrote.

“I wished i saw this 8 months ago when i started my new job,” another chimed while adding that they have now been left struggling to impress their manager. “I am told I am not performing “at my capacity” and “inconsistently.”

Another pointed out that you’re often expected to set higher targets as you progress—so a new hire giving their all into a new role risks having to work harder than the upper limit they’re already operating at.

“I went with 100%, they asked for 150%, then 200% ,” they explained. “Now I’m on 14, 16 hours a day [and] doing 2 managers’ workload.”

But others disagreed, insisting that making a good impression pays off.

“When you start a new job, you are constantly under observation and this is the right time to demonstrate that you were the right person for that job,” one user wrote, while another added: “I got a promotion after 3 months by firing up straight away.”

Contrary to @badass.careers’s theory, another user explained that putting in the work early on generated trust with their boss and actually enabled them to dial back their efforts over time—rather than leading to the proverbial bar being set too high and eventually, burnout.

“I found the 110% effort put in the first 6 months built the equity to come and go as needed without anyone batting an eyelid,” they wrote.
