Dislikes

1. TFG - Heavy cost-cutting. Clearly visible in various aspects 2. Sandoz division spin-off 3. Too much hiring from some orgs (ZS, IQVIA). People from those places bring & spread their toxic servicing client mentality (especially for IQVIA). Eventually this led to some sort of micro-management. 4. No free food. Paid food is overpriced and has no taste No cab for regular shift people. 5. SNOW - pathetic project creation tool. 6. Productivity goes for a toss as there are so many formalities 7. Promotion can be biased. have seen people climbing the ladder by organizing events.

After Switch, Feeling lost in a career. Specially after working in good companies, MNCs, Captives etc.

I have 10 YOE I joined a fintech company as a senior lead developer (java, cloud) in October 24 CTC 37. Everything is good here. Eg . Worklife balance, work from office/home , stability, project manager. only issue is java work is less and stuck in Financial product where we need to deploy test and mostly do configuration changes. This is my 5th company. What would be the advice? is that okay to change comapny in 5-6 months? how to proceed ahead with the career ?
