A dead-end job is a job where there is little or no chance of career development and advancement into a higher paid position. If an individual requires further education to progress within their firm that is difficult to obtain for any reason, this can result in the occupation being classified as a dead-end position. some individuals who have worked for the same company for several years may not be privy to the signs that they are currently employed in a dead-end job.
I personally don’t think there is such a thing as a dead end job. There are only dead end people. A dead end job is a job where you don’t see any future. Dead end jobs are usually talked about by people who don’t like their jobs and/or don’t like their boss and/or don’t like their company. When someone doesn’t like any of these three things or all three of these things they don’t feel happy to be working in that job so they call it dead end because they don’t believe there is anything good about where they are working.
