I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

Every time i buy something nice for myself, my mom kind of pushes me to buy for her too, and I don’t want to. Continued..

I love my job and have been doing it for years. My Principal is good to me as well! The problem is...the Paraprofessionals at my school are never recognized.

Paraprofessionals in my department (Sped) wear many hats on certain days and work extremely hard (mentally/physical)! Does anyone else get this treatment?

Hi Fishes,
My zs joining date is June 1, before that when can I expect the joining formalities and onboarding process and laptop.
As of now there is no intimation except Idfy verification. Would be great help if you please suggest.

1 year experienced BOA here, expectations were huge before joining ZS and the situation is completely reverse out here other than left and anti joins couldn't see any potential consulting work done by me during this tenure. Is it the same case with all, if not please suggest possible explore/move options?

My unsensored openion is this period leave topic has been stretched far too long

Thos who support this should go to HR and explain their case instead of daily posting polls on the main bowls

It is that straightforward

Reporting team me rahke age ka kya scope hai?

Now i figured out that I don't like consulting. came here because of money & now I am fucked.Not able to cope up with expectations and learned just Adv. excel and SQL.
Not an introvert but here we require so much of gathering & collaboration.
Your seniors will be telling you to reach out people when you are stuck , but they are so stuffed with work that even for a very small query all day goes by.
-Recent ZS Joiner in need of money but don't want to do work.
Suggestion?switch to Data Science?
