Hey @obiwan and @KobeBryant24 
Thanks for raising this 

You can change this by going to Profile -> Edit (top right) -> Select 'Are you a professional?' (at the bottom of the screen) 

Can you try the same and let me know if it works? Thanks!

I just don’t get the meaning of it. You work, you get paid. You love your work, your pay should make you happy. You can be a corporate bull or a slave by choice. 

So I don’t get it when people blame the corporate system. If you’ve got the mass in you, no one can enslave you!

What’s a corporate slave?

How to switch from the Banking sector?

Rant alert: 

Have you felt the same way? How many years of work ex after which you started feeling this way? 

Stability and money I’m grateful for. But I hate the constant comparison and competitiveness among peers/colleagues. Makes me want to quit and do a Teach for India fellowship. A little corporate detox. 

Wish I had become an athlete instead. I know it’s not an easy life, but It’s the kind of competitiveness I’m inclined towards. Not inclined towards the kind where you compete with people to please a company that will never care for you as a human. But people fail to recognise that, lose perspective, and lose themselves too. People have no class in this shitty world. If I have kids, they’re definitely becoming athletes and not entering this hellhole. 

Most ironically, I’m borderline considering an MBA to escape the corporate life for 2 years, but obviously I’m aware I will only get entrenched further in it due to the degree.

Corporate is not for me

Oh man. Just hoping for the day i can quit it all. Right now on the blue pill, but ek din ayega. I'm convinced only sociopaths and people with no personalities can enjoy being in this rut. Lavda build something - it's just about keeping the hamster wheel rolling.

Can somebody get me into a corporate career it's truly needed for me.

Diploma CSE final year student looking for job

Hi,
I am just confused about what to do next.
Right now I am a fresher working at a service based company as a junior software engineer with a salary of 4LPA. Should I be working and shifting companies with work experience or do my Masters after about 2 years of work experience.
I would love to get some advice from you folks
Thanks.

Grow myself up the corporate ladder through experience or do Masters

I am working in core operations team in an Aviation based IT company. Working in operations is taking a toll on my health and I ain't learning much. I want to switch in software domain. What is the proper procedure to change department without HR or manager firing me? I seriously need some help with this.

So I left my job at one of the big 4s few months ago. Will discuss the reason some other time.
But one of the issues I'm facing right now is that I never felt good in the corporate environment.
Bosses shouting at you for your mistakes, you feel threatened to stand up against your own boss since they unfortunately have too much power.

You need to take permission for leaves. People can be rude to you and you need to maintain your calm.
The corporate politics.

Then I left big 4 for some reasons. Took a short break.

And now I'm working in one of the Indian firms. They have such policies that your TAT cannot be more than 5 minutes. You cannot log off before 8 pm. If you login after 5 minutes of the actual login time, then you would be marked as absent. Sometimes you're given deadlines which are very difficult to manage and hence you remain stressed out with your work. You don't have the freedom in your work and need to do everything as it has been told.

So I don't really feel good in corporates. I feel there is too much pressure and it is just making me feel more and more sad. I don't feel myself anymore and I feel like a puppet.

Does anyone else feel the same?
How do I deal with this feeling?
It scares me to think about how I have just started my career 3-4 years ago and need to work for the significant years of my life and I don't want to wake up  and sleep with this feeling EVERYDAY.

I think this is the first time I'm talking about it. If anyone would like to share their thoughts, or guide me regarding how do I feel better, or anything you feel I'm doing wrong and could be improved, then I'm all ears. Let's talk it out.

I'm feeling sad in corporates

Hi , can folks here guide steps /suggest how to get SDE role at entry role . I regret giving 2 yrs a career for the civil services exam. I graduated with BTech in  2021 . If I had only sat for college placements at my Tier 1 college, I wouldn't have been living with regrets. I have been doing projects in the MERN stack . I also have skills like Postgresql, Trpc and am familiar with using ORMs and type validators like Zod . Since I had no previous experience at internship or full time , no companies are shortlisting my profile .

Need Guidance for getting SDE role after 2 yrs gap

It will be helpful to me whoever see this post and comments your respected opinions on my situation.

I am ome of the regular corporate employees of India who is earning 3.6LPA in reputed MNC working on Java support. As I need assistance on my career and don't know where to ask, posting here . So below are the options I wanted to do but I am confused where and what to start.
1) Should I upskill more on Java only 
2) Should I need to switch to any other domain like AWS, Azure, cybersecurity 
3) Should I need to do any other integrated course which will be available in platforms like Upgrad.

Why these options means, I need to earn a decent salary par with Industry. 
These are the random options in my mind and I am unable to choose one thing. Due to this I am stuck in my career and my friends are earning more than me.

Career dilemma

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

I recently changed from the production domain to the Master Data Management domain. Currently I am working as a content Analyst under MDM domain in LKQ India. The salary which I am earning is very less and I am actively applying for other organisations so any advice or tips ?

Should I stay or change..

Data Analyst

I am a 2022 grad and 1yr into my corporate life and I have stopped liking software engineering. I took software engineering as a career because for the love of it but after experiencing the office politics and constant mundane work I have lost my zeal.

We are always caught between the CTO and the Manager not being on the same page and redoing a lot of our work. For the past 1yr we have been migrating the same stuff to different platforms. No innovative work, no recognition for good work.

Is this normal in the corporate world?

Also I am thinking of taking a break as I want to focus on my health. Is it a good idea to take a break now for 3-5 months and then get back to working again?
