I can't tell if this is because I started during the Work-From-Home stage, or if it's just part of TWP culture; but it's hard to feel like I am really part of this team. I don't feel like I am connected to my coworkers well.
The job description was also poorly written, and I wish that someone more on the development side had played a bigger role in writing it. Skills that were listed as "a bonus to have" are actually very essential to everyday assignments. And these were not skills that I had a background in. The usage of the very non-user-friendly proprietary system that TWP built requires a lot of knowledge of some deeper programming languages that I did not start with. So it's been a daily struggle to try and learn on the fly. And since it's a proprietary system, there's barely any training available that I can find on my own. A lot of my time is spent reaching out to other employees who know this stuff to help me figure this out. I wish my team understood that what they're asking me to do daily is not what I applied for in my job. And that there's so little documentation and training that learning this stuff is taking large amounts of time.
Also, there's been a really scattered amount of resources such as brand guidelines, style guides, and materials for use available. I'm never sure if I'm using correct ones. Stuff like Jira will suddenly be required out of nowhere and I have never been assigned Jira before.
