Do you guys feel the same?

Long post ahead!!! Its been around a year since I've started working in a service based company as a Frontend dev, WLB, compensation and all is good based on I've just started. During this year of working I do not feel like I've done anything, our team is working on a product for past 2-3 year and its nearing the completion. My role was mostly to cordinate with testing team and solve frontend bugs and minor addition to the project (which was mostly copy pasting), even doing these minor task took me some time initially and I still have to take help from seniors time to time. I got kinda bored with all the repetitive task and I requested my manager to assign me to other development happening within team, he agreed and assigned me some different task but I cant seem to understand anything here, I get stuck in the most basic things, I feel stupid when I am not able to come up with easy solutions. I am seeing other engineers learning new tech stacks in a small amount of time and getting hold of it while i am not able to understand things in my own tech stack. I've recently gotten a appraisal as well(my company is quite good and gives it to everyone) and I feel like I don't deserve a bit of it. I am a 2023 graduate , I did MCA because that was the only good option I could see for myself(mostly cz of money) at that time earlier to that I did a bachelor's (Non CS) without gaining any knowledge of anything. My basics are not that good, In college my only focus was to get a job so I did DSA and some front-end development using ReactJS(projects mostly code along with ytube) to be able to grab a good placement. Is software engineering not for me? If no, then how do I overcome this, i don't wanna be a mediocre.

I have been assigned a task, and to be honest I have been procrastinating a lot. I don’t feel like delivering the task on time. My director product has followed up with me multiple times. What should I do? Give me some creative answers.

Hi, guys. I just switched to a new role (UX Writing) and its been 14-15 days. I am getting major work FOMO here. Here are two things I am feeling, help me navigate through this? 1. I am not aligned to a project/account yet. Feeling a bit restless, I feel like reaching out to seniors and teammates and I do. Yet, there’s little clarity on how I will be resourceful to the entire set up. 2. Brushing up on my skills until formal tasks are allocated to me. However, I learn more on the job, rather than through training. How to make most of the time and resources available? 3. I am not sure if I am overthinking this, but I feel like my role isn’t as well-etched as I first thought it would be.

I am a software engineer with 3 years of experience .For the first two initial years I was working as a QA in one of the good product companies with a very sorted work life balance . I had recently switched to a BE role in a startup I am very much lagging behind here because of my QA background ,the people here are very much talented and are great problem solvers .How do I reach that level ? I have been struggling to keep up with the pace here and finding it difficult to approach the tasks,even though i have been giving so much of time to work . And the TL in my team have a certain amount of expectations and hence they don't help according to that .(which i feel is fair) How should I approach this and level up here Anyone with a similar background and story please share your experience :) Any advice would really help

Hello all in my project whatever I'm doing I'm getting huge criticism from my lead everytime , everyone except him is very good with me. To be Frank , I am understanding and doing a lot's of stuff to impress him too. I have only 1.5 yrs of experience he is having 15+ yrs of experience but the way I'm pushing myself I'm happy , sometimes working 12-14 hrs a day. But whatever even small project related doubts also he is not bearing with me. Daily I'm going deep down mentally but cann't express this with anyone to my family nor with my colleagues. Can anyone suggest what can I do , is this common in IT sector. This is first time I'm experiencing this I had interned at one of faang there i didn't faced like this everyone encourage s my idealogy and will corrects me if I'm wrong? Can you please give some motivation.

So thing is In last 1 week my manager/project lead has been threating that you will have to work on weekend if you dont complete your task by friday and put the the task to testing. And this boils my blood soo damnn much . But as a person who is on lowest level i cant do/say shit. I just disagree with him and dont argue. What would you have done .[ practical advice only] And thing is i do all my dev work on time even earlier almost everytime and he just goes around and threatens everyone with this. Soo annoying thay dumbfk needs to get rekt .

Like suppose you have deadline of 1 week if you spend 7-8 hours daily. But sometimes (happening all times with me) I over stretch myself to complete it in 2-3 days itself. I don't get better sleep or focus on other things like watch movies or play games until I complete it.

Need guidance from fellow experienced folks or who have done this before. What are the proper reasons to ask for a release. My reasons: - work is too hectic and repetitive and no growth technically (mostly support and maintenance once in a blue moon some dev sort of work). - Client is mismanaged they dont know what work is important and come with multiple deadlines even before prod day. - No proper KT is given when assigning a new task. - In the name of agile its kanban board and not jira (given a sprint task to be finished in a day or two and new tickets pulled in between). - Manager swaps ticket often in between sprint. - Manager is mostly away even on standups or client calls so we manage faking they worked and we manage in behind scenes. - Due to too many upcoming requests in tight deadlines from last 3 months wlb is miserable and have worked two weeks without an off once and night shift charges given is 220 only per day. Now I need your all guidance on what can be a better approach or how to improvise

Padhle likhe gawar hire kar lete h kya ji jira m likeh status update nai padh paate? Ek hi bakwas dicuss ho rai h roz din. Iske upar se 8 ghnata code bhi chaiye. What do program managers think of themselves ? Ye saare milke humko pagal bana rahe ., itne ga**d phati k ye.. I'm planning to say it outright to Manager, that if standups are going to run for 1.5 hrs then I will be commuting in this time. I dont get time for myself, if I just sit and listen nonsense that i can read.
