My end semester exams are ongoing for nearly a month. And now, I'm mentally drained. Lab exams along with the endsem exams have left me mentally tired. I'm unable to remember how much I try. Tomorrow is the last exam and I think I'm out. I'm done. What to do? can't remember a thing. Even an easy subject seems like Mt. Everest to me now.

Great respect to NRN to what he has done to the Indian IT industry but he needs to stop with all these PR actions, it's detrimental.

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

I'm unable to understand what sort of entitlement does the leadership hold to ask their employees to work their ass off without any compensation for their efforts.

Like literally bro just said that it's a 7 day work week for the next quarter and fuck your personal life and doesn't even bother to highlight that there would be any gratification for the same.

The mid-senior leadership just acts as pawns and complies with this and in case you highlight this shit show you're fired.

Fuckall Leadership

These past 6 months my performance at work has been dwindling and one primary reason I attribute is memory loss. I find it difficult to recall key points of mails, design reviews, MoMs etc. and often end up missing out things at assigned tasks. What's scarier is that it not only applies to new concepts, I often find myself forgetting even formerly familiar things. During morning updates and discussions I find myself giving uncertain inputs and asking shaky questions because I find it hard to remember key terms, figures etc. I sometimes even forget to pick up some assigned tasks altogether. Random brain freezes have become everyday affair.
.
Sleep-wise it has been little medium-poor but not so bad that could explain such drastic changes. I'm 30 yr old, male, unmarried and don't have any major health issues (except some stress / anxiety and accompanying Irritable Bowel Syndrome condition).
.
If anyone else experienced this, how have you dealt with it?

Hello everyone! 

Welcome to Friday.

What this post is: a place to hang around and chat just about anything - without having a specific topic to discuss.
Think of it like the watercooler at your office.

Look forward to hearing from you all!

In conclusion, I've neither relaxed nor been productive during this weekend. And i feel guilty about both. 

Meh. Fuk it. Consequences of my own actions.

Brainless thoughts

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I have a total of about 7 years of work experience, 2 years before MBA and 5 years after. The chunk of my experience is with an ecommerce startup. I've had at least three different role changes here and 10+ manager changes. I've worked my ass off in every role but with a constant feeling that it wasn't enough. I suspect a part of this is the imposters syndrome and the other part is the hustle culture that the company promotes. You're expected to be always on the go and irrespective of the pace you're at, it's never enough. 

I have been with this company for over 4 years and my ESOPs are 100% vested. I have been sitting on this very strong need of wanting to move on from here. The constant uncertainty + the layoffs I've seen is an added motivation. The company is changing its strategy every quarter and no one seems to know what they're doing. At this point people are only working for the optics and because losing a job in this market could mean months of unemployment. I want to move out but feel confused about what my skill set is. In a startup you end up doing just about everything. You become a generalist and that's making me feel like I lack depth. I'm low on confidence, the job market is unforgiving and I feel absolutely stuck right now. I'm unrepaid compared to my peers and that's a constant thought in my head. I'm currently unmarried with no dependents so the money is not an issue from sufficiency pov, it's more about being paid per the market standards. 

I'm not sure how to get out of this limbo and it's eating at me every second.

You have pending work, you take accountability & you want to get it done with

Anything other than this boils down to 
1/ Your manager wants you to work weekends 
2/ Your business leader wants your manager to make you work weekends 
3/ Your CEO wants your business leader to force your manger to make you work weekends
4/ Your Board / Investor wants your CEO to make your Business Leader to force your manager to make you work weekends. 

See the pattern? 
DEMANDS. ASK's. Always someones. 

Why the rant you ask?? Heard a CEO say to his Leaders "Why are you leaders not forcing your people to work weekends, This is so pathetic" 

I was like ... wait what ...??  But then i realise the grey matter can show some "really" blessed people a loading screen at the most opportune time.

You’re working weekends because

The world is heading into a future with many more older people. The impact on economies can be devastating1, precisely when we need resources to address large challenges such as climate change.

My brain is an over-reacting type. Since the past 2 years, I have been planning, at this point I don't even know what since it has no outcome, various things, job change, going for higher education, promotions etc. 

Got nothing, and am just done done. My brain just constantly hurts now. Want a detox to clear my brain, to start with all this again 🤕

Travel doesn't seem to be an option right now.
