An employer is facing challenges with a new administrative employee who excels in customer service but lacks attention to detail, leading to frequent mistakes and missed deadlines.
Despite receiving feedback and training, the employee consistently boasts about his performance, overestimating his work quality and disregarding the employer's corrections.
The employer is finding it difficult to provide feedback as the employee's behavior of overconfidence and manipulation is affecting their interactions.
Considering the situation, the employer is contemplating whether it's time for a serious conversation about improvement, even though the employee has only been in the role for two months.
