I recently joined a large financial services company as a financial writer. The original understanding was that the job would be 85% writing and some project management duties. 2 weeks in, it seems they are trying to move all the pm duties to me (a job cuurently performed by 2 other longtime employees. What are my options if i'm unable to resolve this and they demand that i go along. If i accept these new PM duties, i will have virtually no time to write. At what point do i need to say "no, this is not the job i was hired to do."
Unfortunately, because you just started the job, I don't feel that there is much that you can do. Since the job is new, the terms of your employment have not yet become "entrenched". Therefore, this would not be a constructive dismissal situation.
