Happens every time.

3 days before client meeting:

ME: Hey, wanna see what we're working on?

CCO: No, I trust you. Do your thing.

1 day before client meeting:

Me: Want to..

CCO: Nope. Keep going. Love you.

1 hour before client meeting.

CCO: So I just saw what you guys did. LOVE IT. But I was thinking about something else. Can we talk?

hi 👋

I wish more CCOs said “fk this client meeting, let’s make the work better”.

like

Yes, having a CCO change a client meeting to improve the work would be cool.

But two major things that you might not have gotten from my post:

1 the meeting was never moved.

2 they had many chances to make the work better along the way and didn't want to.

Hi All,

Join birlasoft one month back, but didn't get any project yet. Till now gave two client round perform well in both but afterwards didn't get any kind of response from RMG. RMG people are also not too interactive, they hardly respond to the pings.

Feeling a bit uncomfortable now as in my 8years career it is happening the first time that I am idle for a whole month, also there is no one to interact with. This whole atmosphere is now making me loose my confidence.
