Office colleagues kabhi dost nahi ho sakte

I have seen people open startups with colleagues. Though I can't come to terms with sharing personal details with colleagues, let alone be friends

But if u keep doing the bare minimum, how will u climb the career ladder? You need to take more responsibility and show impact in the appraisals. Make people more depend on you and u will grow

Does it work like that? More work doesn't guarantee climb up, networking and people skills do

On the contrary,  bare minimum also doesn't guarantee growth.  
  
 Networking and people skills along with responsibility helps one climb the career ladder.

Didn’t get point 7. Does anyone deletes email?

I guess they meant to keep (bookmark/put in folder), emails that have been appreciation, proof of work done well, or ticking bomb that will need dousing later 😅😅

I think maybe creator wants to say, use your Paid/Casual leaves properly rather thinking about "If I'll take more leaves then this would create a negative impact on manager that I'm talking leave".Also after a year, some of your leaves gets lapsed if you don't take them.  
  
 Do your work properly and go on a vacation every 3/6 months for a week or so. I've seen people, not even taking 1 leave in 6 months, i wonder why? I myself think, if I'm working, i should deserve leaves too 🫶

Agree every bit. And yea the reason why i like emails and not things like slack

I have 12 years of experience in IT industry and I have been only with 3 firms so far. Primary reason for job change has always been relocation as my personal life changed during these times. I have always been a top performer since the very beginning and I have been a manager too. But now I start loosing interest and I want to know what options do I have if I don’t want to scale up the ladder anymore. I just want to continue to remain in work to support my family but at the same time I don’t want to feel pressured to grow in career. I feel IT is not a place to retire but I don’t know what other options exist. All the technologies that I worked so hard for are almost becoming obsolete and I’m at a point where I don’t know what to do. Finding job scares me just as much as staying in the current one.

Is anyone experienced beyond 15 years and are yet just Sr. Consultants or managers and what are your thoughts?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

Context: I am 22 years old with a BBA degree from a tier 1 college. After college, worked as intern with a few online marketing startups for around 4-5 months, Post that joined a fintech company as an intern setting up a new vertical that they're building( part of first few hires). I've worked here for around 6 months as an intern and now that my internship is coming to an end I've been told that full time conversion is off the table but they'll gladly extend my internship period. 
Reason: performace not good enough.

I feel purely from an opportunity standpoint continuing here would be great for me as there's a lot of scope for learning and growth however what makes me anxious is the fact that this wouldn't reflect well in my CV and hence would probably be a potential bottleneck in the future wrt higher education or switching companies for that matter.

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I am aged 30 ,UM ,Male , have been working in IT for close to 9 years now . But I never had an option to quit this job  due to my family financial situations. Now I saved enough money for my parents. I want to switch my career to Semiconductors technology (Chip designing, Physical design etc ). I don’t have any prior experience or not even workshops experience in that field but I always wanted to be. It might sound like foolish thought, but I feel like hell here doing this job without any interest (but I always received outstanding feedback from my leadership as well as clients). If I continue here , my next designation would be Manager.

Long story but here are my questions …

1. Should I continue in IT or switch my career ? 
2. I won’t get same package as that I m getting ryt now But Does organisations accept my reason and provide an opportunity aa fresher ? 
3. As I m unmarried and don’t have anyone other than my parents as my dependents and habituated to a peaceful for quite some time, Is it a good decision to pursue my career now , knowing the fact that I might struggle with financial needs.? 

Your genuine answer could help people like me who are trapped in this kind of dilemma.. TIA

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

I joined Infosys as a fresher in June 2021, and my first project has been and still is in the Financial domain for one of the Netherlands banks. As I haven't seen any increment in my salary or a hike from management after 2.6 years of working, I decided to start looking for a switch from January 2024. I received an offer from another company which offers close to a 170% hike (my current CTC is 4.10 LPA) and requires me to work from Hyderabad (currently working from Pune) I have submitted my resignation. My manager countered with an offer of a hike of 15-20% or an opportunity for onsite work in the Netherlands for 6 months, though this isn't immediate—it would be after a colleague returns, as he is going onsite first for 6 months starting in August. So, I may need to wait until next year and continue working on the same salary for 7 to 8 months. I am inclined to explore the onsite opportunity, but also feeling stuck from financial side. I'm unsure about what would be most beneficial for me in the long run. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. 🙏 Thank you!

hey so here goes my post...I graduated last year and have been working at a pbc. However, the package and overall growth is something that I don't like. I work on hybris and spartacus it's good but I don't feel like I'm learning a lot. In clg i was practicing flutter even took an internship in it. Now the problem that i have rn is....i feel like compensation rn is not good.. it's 8lpa. And more importantly growth is not that high. Flutter is something I'm interested in but don't really see any good high paying jobs here. Then tech is all about being flexible with your tech stack....What would you suggest grind out dsa and go for the faang or do open source and try to get into one of those european or us startups which give remote work option but high pay...

Advice to the 20 yr old choosing his career

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

My current job is consuming me completely. I don't get to upskill myself. Therefore, I am stuck in this vicious cycle where I want to leave my organization to work in a better environment along with skilled colleagues. However, to do this, I will have to upskill myself.

Would love to hear your experience if you have been in a similar situation. How did things turn out for you eventually?

I want to change my work profile as I am not enjoying my work any more. Is it wise to use the referral portal and look at jobs at same band or a band below?

Learning And Development

I am deeply worried, to the extent of feeling depressed, about my career trajectory. I feel I made a mistake by switching tracks via doing an MBA with 10 yrs exp. I was a QA for a decade and tried a lot to break into PO roles( worked in a product based org on mobile apps for 6 years). It did not work and the director of PM advised me to do the one year fulltime MBA. Not sure why I gave in to his advice, but I gave GMAT and began with an 18 month Full time program at a Tier-1 Bschool. Cracked placement in the first go but got into IT services( not in WITCH), and now I am stuck being a PMO for a client.
Even when I look at my resume, I see a crappy profile, everything is disjointed and makes no sense now. No wonder I get no calls.
I don't want to go back to QA, this Project Management work is shitty( cannot see any learning happening, but the client is happy so I'm stuck in this project. )
I want to move to PM, thinking maybe CSPM can help, not sure where I am headed. 
Any guidance for this middle aged dinosaur 😞

Systems Engineer

Hi guys, looking forward to some advice. I'm working as a Frontend developer for the past 2 yrs, tech stack is React, Javascript. I'm feeling that I'm bored with the work and not learning much now, just building components and calling new APIs. So I thought I should try backend development. The backend tech stack in my team is Java, Spring boot. I have knowledge of core Java. If I continue with the current role, I might get a promotion next yr but if I change I will not get. Also I eventually want to go to a MNC, where I see generally hiring is for backend roles where system design and DB is asked. Frontend specific hiring I mostly find in startup and mid sized companies, which I want to avoid. Another option is to switch to a different company like Microsoft, etc where they look for a general software engineer, for which I will need to study system design and DB. I'm fairly good at DSA, so not much of an issue here. What should I do?
