Hi All,
I'm joining EY India Technology Consulting in a week. However, EY is also my client, primarily we're involved in the maintenance of their internal user interface.

I can see a non solicitation clause in my current employer's offer letter than I can't join client within 12 months of my termination.

Are this non solicitation clauses followed in reality? Everyone's has been asking me to chill, since I'm joining as scon, not a manager or with any trade secrets. Opinions pls.

I recently joined Capgemini at 13.5 LPA along with 1 lakh as joining bonus. It was a jump from 6.5 and I have 4 YOE with 2 yrs in React JS
Two questions that's been bothering me -

Did I settle for less as I can see people taking even bigger jumps with less experience?

My joining date was 15 September, so am I eligible for upcoming appraisal as the annual review is due by October 14 and I have just joined a project?

Please share your insights as I have looked for advice everywhere else.

Hi! I’m currently a Brand Manager in Toronto with 10 yoe in corporate level retail (fashion, gift, lifestyle) and a background in merchandising and hand-crafted visual display (Anthropologie and Indigo), considering a pivot to Tech in someway, but not sure what roles to look at. I’m organized, creative, curious, analytical, and customer focused. Wide range of experience including marketing, hiring, sales, project mgmt. Thinking about doing a UX or User Research bootcamp?

I want to get out of project management but I feel stuck in this career b/c I feel like there’s no other job options to pivot to that will have a similar salary in my city 🙃

My senior rarely answers my initial emails/Skype messages/etc. Little background: He’s on another client so I know he’s likely busy but it makes it somewhat difficult to get things done. Any tips on how to manage this? It’s getting to the point where I feel like a pest/uncomfortable following up on unanswered messages. I’ve been compiling questions, utilizing other team members, communicating with managers, but there are some things that just need to go through him because he’s the senior.

While speaking with a manager trying to describe micromanagement from a team member, my role as a senior designer was described in paraphrase as, “Well as directors we are designers too, and so you become the Wacom tool, and we can sit next to you and tell you how to design the project or live direct the development over zoom”. I reiterated that this doesn’t reflect trust or respect in my abilities and my role was again described as a tool.

project has been stressing me out a ton, health issues are flaring up because of it, feel useless on the job, my confidence is at an all time low. requested to be rolled off and almost cried to manage
