In today’s competitive business environment, employers are constantly reviewing your performance. All of us have strengths and positive qualities we bring to the table. We all also have weaknesses and as a professional, it’s your job to overcome your weaknesses.

However, employers also have a list of “red flags.” These “red flags” are more than just weaknesses – these are signs that you’re the weakest link at your company. When employees set off one of these “red flags,” it’s often grounds for getting fired. Familiarize yourself with these “red flags” and make sure you avoid them!
