Hi all, I'm (kind of) fresher into the corporate workforce, ~2yrs of work exp.
What are some corporate etiquettes that a person like me should learn and/or be aware of??
It could anything but not limited to... from way of saying things to the things to be said to how to behave or how to work around/handle the power dynamics.
Don't work outside office hours
Always learn to say NO
Be casual with Managers all the time. (Don't put bucket to them during appraisal)
Company is not your family. Don't get too attached or emotional towards it
Don't call anyone Sir/Madam. Always call them by their First name
Start building network with your team lead, managers, HR and even recruiters. Always comes in handy when switching or searching job
If you are working hard just do it instead of showcasing it to others.
This 💯
Do not join the sheep and shepherd, you’ll end up as mutton
Don’t follow any - be yourself else you’ll end up the same as others.
Nothing, be on your own
