What They Promised vs. What I Walked Into

This episode dives into one of the most frustrating experiences many professionals quietly endure: being sold one workplace during the interview process and walking into something completely different.From promises of autonomy that turned into micromanagement...to "friendly collaborative cultures" that masked toxicity, favoritism, control issues, and poor leadership -- I'm sharing several real experiences that taught me how interviews can sometimes function more like marketing campaigns than honest conversations.This conversation isn't about bitterness or attacking former employers. It's about the emotional and professional impact of realizing the role you accepted isn't the role you were promised.If you've ever accepted a job full of hope only to feel blindsided weeks later, this episode is for you.
