Nothing

I got my first salary after getting my cash CTC increased from 22 to 29LPA I thought I’d be happy but I just checked my bank account and closed it. Felt nothing. No differential feeling / experience for even a second YOE: 5 Earlier when my salary moved from 30k to 50k month I used to get the happiness hit for a week but now it’s “meh” even though the difference is much higher. Anyone else rocking the same boat?

Hi all, I need some advice from someone in my situation.(Spoiler : Long post ) Some intro : Ever since i was a child i wanted to be a doctor (I was good in Bio and bad in maths with 56 /100 in 12th Maths ), as such i prepared for NEET , and dropped one year for the same , as my father is a farmer ,only way i would be doctor is to crack into a government college where fees are low . I worked hard for a year but i missed the cutoff mark for Gov MBBS seat by 12-14 marks , i got multiple offer letter from Gov-funded colleges with fee about 3 L per year , but as my father didn't have 3L in his bank i was not able to provide a demand draft (DD) on admission date and they rejected me.Which had a impact on my mental health. As i had some interest in Android ROM/kernels , i took admission from Btech CSE in tier-3 college, as the fee was low and i thought i can learn coding and get a decent off-campus offer. But unfortunately for me i struggled to clear maths related papers again and had 5 backlogs over 4 years . I spend my 4 years trying to clear all papers within course time ,which i succeeded with a low CGPA of 7 . But I never learned coding well and didn't know about things like leetcode etc. I tried months for job in 2022 , but none was hiring as i was from tier 3 college + low CGPA , i finally got an offer from Consultancy for C++ developer role .They told they will deploy me in IBM in contract to hire position with a salary of 3LPA . But on day 1 at IBM i come to know my project is Application support , and that this project was closing soon , now in 2024 project is over and am unemployed again. Now when i am applying via Naukri i am only getting BPO calls with low CTC (below 4.5LPA ) , Noone is even considering me for SDE roles. Only positive is i cleared CAT and got into provisional list of IIM Sambalpur, last year ,But didnot go as fee was very high for me (15L+) I feel i have destroyed my career and even leetcode guys are not getting jobs there days . Only hope i feel i have now are : 1)Write CAT again ,Go for MBA in a decent college as i have interest in stock markets (Paid my UG fees by trading ) ,This means i will have to take 10L+ loans ? Also , is MBA worth it for someone with no finance background in UG ,will i get job afterwards? 2)Try to get out of india to any European country to do any PG taking 15L+ in loans and try to find any job there. Keep in mind i am only breadwinner in my family ,Age : 26 , UG passout 2021. Which of the following should i try for ? I know its long post and many wont read, if you read the post please comment recommendation .Thanks

I am feeling extremely disheartened at the moment. I used to have a good income before, but later I decided to switch to an analyst role. I quit my job and prepared for the transition within 6 months. However, now I am not receiving any calls now. I can't help but wonder if I made a mistake by making this change. I am reaching out to this community in the hopes of finding any referrals for a Business Analyst or a related field. This community is my final ray of hope.

Just thinking how did I landed up here in my boredom..is it better than x?

Writing on behalf of my friend who was associated with this company The actor Sonam Kapoor is married into a billionaire family. The husband runs an "ultra premium" clothing brand for elite, which just burns cash since launch but continues to exist. The parent company funds this brand for it's lavish existence. Though apparently, It is the best team one can be assigned. Too many meetings with celebs rather than actual work, top glamour events to attend, internal or client parties every other day, coolest co workers (all young group) P.S. Outsiders call it Bahane se chal raha brand (iykyk 😂)

Career success or credentialism is often lonely and over-glorified Thoughts?
