How was the pay / commute / benefits? From my perspective, they could call me janitor as long as I get paid. Resumes are so massaged nowadays that titles don’t mean anything. It still sounds like you will be doing the work.

It's a 12 months contractual with a possibility of permanent conversion. Salary wise it's about 10% more from my previous role that got restructured. Scope wise, it's more end user centric than server machines or infrastructure related.

Hi Everyone,
I need your views and suggestions. I have two doubts:
1. Is it fair to leave an organisation (big brand) after a year as the environment is real toxic and there’s no career growth as well in terms of good work.
2. If I have to make a switch do I really have to target big brands only or can try for medium and small size companies too.

I’m having a hard time finding firms that are hiring entry level associate positions that don’t require at least 3+ years experience in-house. Should I start at a business law firm to get experience working with corporations first?

Career advice?

I'm a relatively junior data engineer (2yoe), the only other engineer (senior) that trained me left about a 6 months ago and I negotiated a nice raise for the extra responsibilities.

My performance reviews have been stellar, but my manager is starting to look to hire a senior to help me deliver projects as we do lack capacity right now.

I feel like I might be missing an opportunity to ask for a promotion and hire a junior instead.

Any opinions/tips?
