Managers behave like gods. Work culture got spoiled and nice talented people are leaving. No bonuses every year. They will include bonus , in your CTC . Don't fall for it. All name sake feedback procedures n they boast about their culture.

the weekends when I'm not having to work or listen to the BS coming out of the top management team

Dislikes

no communication other than corporate jargon and meaningless platitudes. No real direction from the top team who don't seem to know what they are doing - it took them 18 months to realise classroom training is not the same as digital learning! Cost saving decisions that end up costing more, especially when they have to then reverse that poor decision 2 weeks later. Corporate culture is extremely isolating with little team cohesion and no real inclusion - I've not had a conversation (email or otherwise) with my direct line manager in nearly a year!

New Job, Higher Pay, Now I’m Feeling Awkward

I’ve been at my new job for about six months now, and everything’s been going great! I’m getting positive feedback from my manager, and I get along well with the team. The thing is, when I started, my salary offer ended up being much higher than the initial number discussed during my interview. I didn’t negotiate and just accepted the offer. So, fast forward to happy hour with the team, and the topic of salary comes up. I, unfortunately, shared what I’m making, and let’s just say... it didn’t sit well with the others who have been on the team for years and make less than me. They weren’t mad at me, but now I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable and unsure how to handle this situation. Has anyone had something like this happen? How did you deal with it? Let’s chat!
