#fedup
I am new to the team and i am facing lots of issues while doing my workspace setup.I have 3 yrs of experience and all of the guys in my team are atleast 7+ yrs. My team ( 6 onshore+2offshore including me) = 8
If I keep on asking for help again and in the team meetings what my lead will think about me as a developer and everyone will be fed up from me seeing me asking for help repeatedly.
Have you guys faced such situations with your juniors what should I do or what I can do differently.

I like when juniors take initiative and ask for help, shows that they care about the work getting done right.

I fire those who get something wrong because they didn't bother asking. It's a team, not a one man show.

Book some time with the most friendly person and get it done in one shot over a meeting

If the setup is uniform for your team, maybe search if they have any documentation to walkthrough.

If there isn't or it's outdated, set aside some time with a senior to discuss and resolve your issues, and offer to create a small gist/doc to help the next new member who might face the same.

Working for a senior who is beyond horrible. She talks to you like you’re stupid and makes it sound like you’re absolutely terrible at what you’re doing. She’s made 5 other associates cry during her 5 year career. Got someone fired and made another person quit. It’s known around the office that she can no longer have a female associate, because she talks down to females more than she does males. I came along and thought I could deal with it but she literally makes me want to not log on tomorrow.

I posted this somewhere else before I remembered that I am in this bowl :) so, I changed jobs 6-7 months ago and I am realizing it is not a good fit. Leadership seem to not want to hear the truth so people tell them what they want to hear and if you don’t middle management gets pissed at you. I am seriously thinking about looking somewhere else. My question is how do you answer the “why are you looking to leave” question without bad mouthing your current company?

Guess I’m not really looking for a solution here, just venting.
