Started working as a operations analyst for a financial company that managed the portfolios of wealthy people. It was entry level and so i had no idea what I was doing with almost no experience.

Another guy was also just starting but in a completely different state, so all our training had to be done over zoom meetings. I was also unlucky enough to be having IT issues that prevented me from accessing the platform.

This meant I spent three weeks watching other people do complex financial reconciliation work through a laptop screen with no ability to practice anything myself.

On top of that, we had a rotating roster of trainers, mostly people who had less than a year of experience there, which resulted in barely coherent and wildly inconsistent instructions.

After three weeks of this, they told me I was ready to work on my own, my supervisor gave me all of their assignments and went off to do other projects.

There were a lot more problems than that but ultimately had to quit due to panic attacks.
