I received this plant as a gift from my job a few years ago with no additional information. I was only watering it once a week since I thought it was a succulent and that succulents did not need much water; but I recently learned succulents do like water and I'm not sure if this is a succulent anyways.

Can anyone help me identify this plant and the correct care for it? (I apologize if this is a very obvious situation to most.)

I also agree it looks like some kind of sedum (in a bit of a sad state), but just wanted to add that sedum is known commonly as stonecrop in some places. In case you're looking around in a garden store or something, they may be called stonecrop there.
