I finally landed a new role after a long search, and I’m already questioning if I made the right call. The culture feels different from what I expected, and I’m trying to give it time, but something’s off. I don’t want to quit too soon, but I can feel myself disengaging. How long do you give a new job before admitting it might have been a mistake?

I received an offer from IBM Bangalore. However I saw openings at my preferred location Kochi only after the interviews.

Anyone knows the chances of location being changed after receiving the offer and getting tagged to a project?

I have not yet accepted the offer.

This was 1 week ago and I have still not received any call. Has anyone else faced the same issue? And if yes, should I even expect a call fro HR?
