Career Advice

Hi Folks,

I recently joined my current organization (sept'24) in cybersecurity dept. Initially during the interview discussion my job role was defined and focused on application security testing and i joined for the same. But after a month, my managers started handing me data analytics tasks, working on excel, comparing data and such. I am not able to carry out any technical appsec tasks as i have the appsec background. And it's getting more and more frustrated day by day not being able to use my core skills and just do other peoples grunt work. Is it okay to switch jobs with 5 months of joining? Would really like some input.

Salary Discussions, Hike & Promotions

Hi,
I'm currently drawing a salary of 27.7 (25.3 is fixed) LPA in my current organization and I got a new offer for 39LPA (33.3 is fixed and 1L joining bonus total 40)

I'm almost going to complete by 2 years in my current organization and overall I have 11 years experience as QA. How do you rate this salary jump?

Offer letter - Accepted

I have been working at my current organization for 2.6 years and started with a CTC of ₹8 lakh, which has remained unchanged since my joining. During this period, I have not received any promotions or salary hikes, which has made me question whether I should wait for growth within the company or explore external opportunities.

I am hopeful of getting a promotion in June this year, but I am unsure if it’s worth waiting for. Here’s what I am considering:

1. Stay and wait for the promotion: There’s a possibility of career progression in June. Should I wait for it, considering the time and effort I have invested here?

2. Start looking for a new opportunity: I could begin exploring other organizations where I might receive a better salary, role, and career growth. However, leaving without securing my next promotion feels uncertain.

I would appreciate suggestion:

Whether I should wait until June or start looking for better option or if you have something else please tell me in comments

Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

I had fight with code reviewer he is from other team he is just arrogant and he complains to my manager , The manager gives wrong and negative feedback though I am technically sound , but got released by from the project by the manager

After that I got new project it was only 2 month I done all most all work got spot award also for this by working more than 12 hours .

Because of this overwork I am feeling stressed and new project is coming to me and they just asking me about justification for all 

1 Guys I am in pip but new manager said(may be choclate to employee) we will retain you by giving good feedback 
2 All people in the company want to take me in projects but asking me justification for pip
3.Working more than 12 hours every day and also attending late night calls 

I am stressed out every day with working hours and also the justification given to others lot of politics happening .
 Mentally draining with no patner in my life to share this who can understand this and guid .

Guys I am in PIP and feeling stressed all days

So, there’s this colleague who seems to be going behind my back. They’re emailing the line manager and complaining about everything I do, decisions, situations, even my work. It feels like they’re keeping tabs on me just to criticize.

What’s the best way to deal with someone like this? Should I confront them or just keep doing my thing?

Backstabbing Colleague

I recently joined a new company, and within 10 days, I received a more attractive offer from another company. Can I resign without serving the notice period? Would declining any salary and relieving letter (Experience  Letter) it easier for the company to agree to my departure?

I'm getting a good offer after joining a company. It's been 10 days only . Can i leave it?
