Background: I'm about to start my corporate journey and one of the advices I recieved was "Don't take things personally, and treat most feedback as a chance to improve and not resent!"
What would you advice your younger self, about to step out in the corporate world?
Drop some wisdom!
@salt @biryaniEnthu @samosa @micheal_scott @unpaidIntern
there are two ways to go about it:
it's about which fight is worth fighting, it's important to choose your battles.
just ensure you are not doing it without a cause.
Also, not all battles are fought for victory, sometimes it's about telling the world someone was there on the battlefield.
Now moving from that philosophical gyaan:
Know the difference between a friend and a colleague.
Talk to your friends before making any big corporate decisions.
Never hesitate to resign if you are not enjoying your job, be prepared to leave though.
Never stay back for a salary hike, growth only comes with change.
Don't hesitate in saying "F*ck You" if required, your self-respect is most important.
Network with seniors, but avoid ass licking, it will be useful during appraisal.
Chill and enjoy your work, if you aren't, leave the job.
In a bigger scheme of things, a few months of employment doesn't harm, but a stagnant growth would hurt a lot.
this is how I work, choose whatever works for you.
Thanks @samosa valuable points
What is that one piece of advice you’d give your younger self or someone who’s starting off now after working for a few years.
Mine would be that despite the hunger to prove yourself always take the time off to enjoy your success bot...
I've recently joined a company and entered into corporate world. As an experienced person, what advice would you give to your juniors?
What is the one advice you would have given to your younger self when you were just about the start your first job straight out of college? Grapeviners experiences would really come in handy :) Cheers!!
