SDE 1
Hi all, I just wanted to ask everyone here if they ever felt the way i am feeling right now in my role. I’ve been working for over a year now, and i feel burnt out all the time. I have a habit of saying yes to everything to my project managers/ team managers because i dont want to show any weakness or them thinking that I’m slacking off. This has taken a toll on me big time. Whenever I’m struggling with deadlines, i get legit scared, like shaking and all, and it’s frightening and annoying. I want to switch to a more stable company (currently in a company somewhere between a startup and a corporate- it has the downsides of both but upsides of neither imo). I wanted to know if this is something only i am struggling with or if anyone has any suggestions on how to tackle this. Thank you all in advance:)
Learn to say no my dude, will improve your mental and physical health
By stable i also mean a somewhat friendlier environment, because currently it’s toxic and im not sure if the upper management even realises it but no one says anything out there including me
