I need career advice

Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

Hey all

Recently I moved to another organisation to my surprise the entire work environment is too different from what I have expected.

And I need to work under My DM who is right in front of us who does micro monitoring so much and it was completely new to me.

Even seniors were saying be careful with him as 7-8 people recently have moved out of the company due to some differences and here I have joined a month ago and Heard more stories about my DM.

How to work and not get focused into him as recently he sent mail to HR for another person due as a bad performer.

Idk how I'll manage here as of now I just want to leave this company within 6-9 months.

If I do will it create any bad impression on me during HR as I just switched 2 companies in less than 4 years even though my package isn't that great!!

Give your suggestions!!!

Interview Tips & Stories

I am working as a front-end developer for 4.5years in a same company. So I think this is the right time to switch my job.

I attended F2F interview yesterday(21-01-25) at TCD, I completed two rounds of interview and wait for a while, they say you may leave now you got a call from us soon.

Is they call me either I cleared the interview or not cleared it, or they call only I cleared the interview?

Can I wait for the call or focus on other interview?

Post interview process

Okay, here’s my confession... 🙈

A few years ago, I needed approval for a reimbursement bill, but I was in a rush and knew my boss wouldn’t be around for a few days. So, I took matters into my own hands and signed my boss’s name on the approval form. 😬

Honestly, at the time, I thought it was no big deal – the paperwork got approved, I got my reimbursement, and it was all smooth sailing. But now, looking back, I realize how immature and risky that was! 🤦‍♂️

I didn’t get caught, but it was a total “what was I thinking?” moment. Anyone else ever pulled off something like this in their career... and got away with it? Or am I the only one who still cringes at this? 😅

DeepSeek claims they trained their AI model for under $6M, but that price tag seems way too low. Here’s why people are skeptical:

# Not Really Open-Source  They released model checkpoints and inference scripts, but the training script is missing. That’s a big red flag.

# Did They Train from Scratch? – Unlike Google, Meta, and OpenAI who spent billions training models from raw data DeepSeek may have borrowed data from O1, tweaking it instead of starting fresh.

# Paying Only Half the Bill?  Another theory? They underreported costs. Maybe their small firm only covered a fraction while their parent company (with 50K+ GPUs!) handled the real expenses.

Ironically, Big Tech trained AI using our data without consent. Now DeepSeek might’ve done the same just using their data instead. A case of “you reap what you sow”? 🤔
