Corporate Conspiracy Theories

Need answer to just one thing. Do you guys intentionally ghost candidates or do you guys intentionally ghost candidates? 🙂

I joined Synkrama Technologies Private Limited with enthusiasm, inspired by a positive and supportive environment. Initially, the atmosphere seemed promising, and I was motivated to contribute to the team. However, as time went on, I faced numerous challenges that profoundly impacted my professional and personal well-being. Early in my tenure, I was appointed as a Team Lead on several projects. This role, though a significant opportunity, came with immense pressure from our CEO, KJ. The expectation was to meet deadlines at any cost, which led to continuous mental stress. Under his directives, I inadvertently became a source of pressure for my colleagues , AN , and AB and other major colleagues . This created a strained and uncomfortable working environment for all of us as i used to put pressure on them on the influence of Karan Jain The situation worsened as I found myself working through weekends and even during leaves, resulting in severe mental exhaustion. Despite these efforts, new developers were hired, and I was sidelined. This period was particularly tough, leading to depression and sleepless nights. After enduring this for several months, I decided to resign from my position. Unexpectedly, KJ contacted me, urging me to withdraw my resignation. He assured me that the previous issues would be resolved and praised my contributions. Reluctantly, I decided to stay, hoping for a positive change. However, the company's environment continued to pose challenges. We were subjected to screen monitoring via Team Logger, where management frequently questioned my idle time. Despite my high productivity and efficiency, I was often scrutinized for taking breaks or assisting colleagues, which is essential for maintaining a collaborative workspace. Most recently, a significant and distressing event occurred, further affirming my decision to share my experience publicly. it’s crucial to address and bring awareness to the toxic practices that can affect employees’ mental health and overall well-being. I hope my story encourages organizations to foster genuinely supportive environments and prioritize the mental health of their employees. source: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/rutvik-borad-12409b19b_theabrcurseabrofabrcoprorate-activity-7199762667471839233-3wyR

I heard from a friend that someone in the company was forced to resign after asking his manager(female) about an outdated list, as he was no longer included. I don’t know the other side of the story, but this is really alarming. Managers like this are a real danger to society. Don't whether to reveal the company name or not

How do you deal with someone else taking credit for your ideas in front of leadership? Asking for a friend. Some more context. My friend, female, discussed some ideas on a project with the person in question, male. He's a new joinee with impressive pedigree. He went and presented those ideas as his own to a key leader. The leader was impressed. My friend wasn't able to get a word in, even though she's been around for much longer at the company. How would you deal with this?

It can be either a strange workplace policy, an altercation with a manager or absolutely anything else.

In a shocking turn of events, a former employee at MoEngage, while serving their notice period, reportedly downloaded over 1,000 files, including confidential pitch decks, proposals from active deals, and sensitive product documentation, onto their personal device. This individual allegedly shared the stolen data with a competitor they were preparing to join. As a result, this competitor has started appearing in all of MoEngage’s deals, armed with insider information, and MoEngage is facing unprecedented losses against them. The IT team at MoEngage flagged this alarming activity, and the former employee is now facing legal prosecution.

There is one guy on my team who handles feedback so poorly that they engage in narcissistic tendencies. I've seen them bootlick the right people due to their closer proximity and utilize crony wordplay to show that they are harmless. When in fact they try to advance their own agenda to further their own gain. Every company on their resume is a checklist and the megalomania in them is palpable. Unfortunately most people on the team are too naive and won't realize it until it's too late. Which means by the time he is done using everyone else, he will bounce and do it at their next company while completely f'ing over their current coworkers. Anyone had a similar experience?

One of my close friends is not liking the work in the current company due to the terrible WLB. He is planning to switch to a new company but doesn't want to show this current company experience of 3+ months. Have you ever come across such a situation? What's the best thing to do? If he reveals to the new employer then it won't be good on his resume because the company previous to the current one laid off 50% of employees and unfortunately he got affected too in that layoffs. So, due to tough market conditions he has joined a startup and realised that he can't sustain here for long. Please guide if it's alright not to put the last 3 months experience in the resume and apply for new jobs.
