Vehicle musical chair at Porter 🍺

Shouldn't the office parking be free for all the companies?? We are coming to office for official purpose and we only pay for parking the vehicle, especially when there is no free cab service provided.

Came across this wacky job post on LinkedIn. Had to double check if it was legit. Org is part of Isuzu brand.

My team has two standup daily, one at 11 and another at 2.30. And the most funny thing is sometime these standup runs for 1 hour and we even have lunch at 1. I mean really it seems messed up. By 12 we are free from standup, hardly get the work rhythm from 12 to 1 and then lunch and afyer that within 30 minutes there would be next standup.

Hey there Grapevine Community, I've noticed a lot of chatter here about SDEs and PMs, so I thought I'd mix things up a bit. I'm an HR Executive (aka Chief Happiness Officer 😁) at an early-stage startup, and I'm curious to hear from all of you. What do you think are some innovative or unconventional strategies you've seen or experienced in HR that have really made a difference in your workplace? Looking forward to your stories and ideas! Cheers!

Now why everyone is talking about benefits of working from office? I saw post from Sunil Shetty on linkedin. My take is, when pandemic hit companies asked employees to WFH to keep wheel rolling. Now we know WFH can give greater control over personal and professional life(at least for me) we don’t want to go back to office. In my opinion corporate want us to work from office cause, - they can control our time, 9hrs in ofc, you are getting paid for time not skills. - they want to show who is the boss here. - Learning is key reason for WFO, bullshit, we have a lot of learning portals and traffic time can be used to learn but it is never a intention. What you guys think?

Hi all, Please suggest some fun Online games that can be conducted during the team's monthly connect. Please do not suggest any Housie or Scribble related games as the team is bored of playing those games.

Ranting - Seriously after seeing this post by meesho, it hit my nerves, we have nothing dude in our NEW BIG office. I saw many small companies have such play items to relax in between the work. Goddamn it, for us, it's chai sutta bass. Khtm. Aur haa, boring HR activity once in a month 🤦

Sharing my experience: I am a founder of a small startup where I am the only employee. Recently, I received an offer from a head of another start up asking for money in return for work. I immediately refused due to business ethics. I work in life sciences sector. Sad that people curse politicians and they themselves stoop to lows for money.
