Hi Fishes,

I am a tester at level 10, working in a US project. We have our agile meetings in US timings.But the thing which annoys me the most is we work in whole day and then we sometimes have to attend the meetings till 9:30 pm IST at night.We are told to login late next day but still my productivity falls after 8:30 pm.I feel that attending these EST meetings is the duty of the onsite lead. My onsite lead expects us to attend those meetings till 9:30 pm.Kindly suggest.What should I be doing? Am I expected to attend these?

First of all, we need to analyse the importance of the meetings for you.
1. Are you really needed to attend the meeting?
2. Are you getting anything from the meeting for your work
3. Do you need to provide any inputs in the meeting?
If the answer is ‘NO’ to all of them then you don’t need to attend and talk to your people lead and mention your concerns and state that this schedule is impacting your productivity. They will understand. Otherwise if there is a chance for you to login late like 1pm and can stay upto 9-9.30 then you can think about it.

Okay thanks for the suggestions.Really valuable.I will think about it.

My career counselor has seemed kind of cold towards me lately and I’m not sure why. Previously, she’s been someone I could count on to sponsor me, but she seems eager to get off our check in calls and hasn’t advocated for me in the ways I would’ve expected. For example, I went outside of our account for a stretch role and had walked through the logic of that decision (the role is on a high visibility project that could lead to more work, it’s a role meant for someone two career levels above mine
