Honest advice or political correctness?

I have been suffering from work related anxiety for the last 3-4 months. I have recently started taking medications for it. I am supposed to move to Bengaluru as my wfh has ended. My parents think it's a good idea as it will help change my environment. I am wondering if it's a good idea to share about it at my workplace with my manager/superior. I know it's subjective, but still. Because I am worried this has started to affect my performance. Also, I am a talkative and emotional person and may end up slipping these things anyway.

Hey folks, This competitor's CEO reached out to me recently and we talked for an hour. In the end, he asked my current TC which was quite surprising. He then offered me a 100% hike + 10L esops. Although the offer is tempting. I have a problem. There is a Non-Compete clause in my offer letter for 8 months. How can I tackle this? The CEO said that, if I make up my mind he will make sure that my current org doesn't know any of this. Please help me with all the suggestions!! Thanks in advance :)

Current CTC Expectation Notice Period How do you deal with them?

So our company is going for campus placements and people from my alma mater have been reaching out to me on Linkedin asking about the work culture and review in general. Personally, I wouldn't advise someone to join the company. I want to let them know about the actual scenario (which is bad) but also I don't want it written for obvious reasons. I don't know them personally, so, can't call them and say. How to handle this moral dilemma?

Just moved from a WFH startup to a Full WFO legacy corporate company. These corpo people talk so much, too much restrictions to get access or to create a MVP, a lot of unnecessary paperwork/ email loops. I feel sleepy all day and these people find and make you speak hell lot making me confused and feeling that I have done no work and what will I say about deliverables 🥲. Side note: renovation going on so not getting any corner + the setting are like this getting it is difficult 😭 Any suggestions or I am over reacting 😄

I am just 1.5 years old into my current company and the growth seems to be slow here.Hence wondering if I can look outside in the market for some new opportunities. Just an anxiety: What should I answer if the HR asks me about the frequent switches? I always get stuck on this question ( ofcourse I do it for quick growth) but how can I sugarcoat to justify this? Please comment and share your thoughts.

I was recently impacted by layoff and having 20yrs of exp into application support and service management with last 10yrs grown into a middle management role(limited tech hands-on and no dev experience nor CS background) While I am financially ok atm and can manage staying at home for next 12-24 months, I am not financially independent yet. its getting too boring and I want to get back into some sort of work routine as I am keen on retirement yet. Challenges I am seeing with finding a new opportunity: - The job market seems to be quite restricted for senior roles with that experience - Few that came across were at a substantial low salary. - Some others required significant hands-on experience Thought process:: - While salary is not a major concern, I am not sure if I makes sense to take a pay cut. - Given the speed of tech changes, not sure what kind of learning/certification would be helpful - Even if I do tech self-learning, lack of practical hands-on seems to be a drawback - At 40+ while I am open to work hard and learn, i view is to find a job and learn into it , rather than other wat round Any guidance/pointers would be appreciated. As would any leads/introductions on suitable opportunities you know of.

A few days ago, one of the senior folks used his influence to get latest 6 months data from the competition (who is kicking their ass). Shows the data to the CEO and other C level folks. Gets a broader audience too. Funny part: code of ethics clearly stated that no corporate espionage. Should I report to the board or someone anonymously or should I just ignore ? I am so pissed that I want to move on from this organisation.

I'm seeing so many posts where startup employees are cribbing about things like layoffs, work culture etc etc. Doesn't seem like they have perspective on everything it takes to build a startup. I've built a failed startup myself and have immense respect for founders who are grinding it out there in such difficult recessionary circumstances. And then you have so many of the engineers and PMs cribbing about basics without talking about important things like learning growth, building for the future etc. Why such myopia? I work at a big tech and envy the speed at which startups move, the big responsibility everyone gets to handle, the fast career growth. All these things are being cribbed about. They crib about founders wanting more. Their job is to ensure success, not to give lifetime jobs to entitled people. They have more headaches you can imagine. In my small startup I had a million headaches. I can only imagine how hard it must be to run larger ships. Is everyone joining a startup these days looking for a get rich quick scheme?
