I got fired after working for FREE for 3 years.
I didn’t see it coming… But the red flags were there 🚩
Here are 5 red flags you’re quietly being pushed out 👇🏼
1️⃣ You're suddenly left out of meetings you used to be in
🚩 If you were always in the room and now you're not, that's not an accident…
👉🏼 Ask your manager directly: "I noticed I wasn't included in this meeting. Is there a reason?" Take note of their response.
2️⃣ Your responsibilities are slowly being reassigned
🚩 Projects you owned are now "team efforts." Your workload shrinks without explanation.
👉🏼 Request a 1:1 to clarify your role and get it down in writing.
3️⃣ Feedback becomes vague or nonexistent
🚩 No constructive criticism. No praise. Just... silence.
👉🏼 Ask for specific feedback. If they can't give it, that tells you everything you need to know.
4️⃣ You're being set up to fail
🚩 Impossible deadlines. No resources. Unreasonable goals that keep shifting.
👉🏼 Document EVERYTHING. Send recap emails after every conversation.
5️⃣ Your gut is screaming at you!
🚩 You feel the energy shift and something just doesn’t sit right.
👉🏼 Trust yourself. Start building your exit plan NOW – not when it's too late.
I learned these the hard way.
But you don’t have to.
If you recognize the signs early, you gain leverage.
Preparation beats panic.
Always.
