I recently joined TW some months back and I dont know why I think have made a wrong choice for myself. I am feeling like I am lost. I am not able to fit in in this high expectations environment. I am used to working in a place where we always worked by taking help from others and here it is sort of assumed that we would be knowing everything right from day 1. Also there is no pairing in my project. Any suggestions on what should be done would be welcome.

If you have gone from product company I would say it's not the place. Since the company went remote people don't even tend to help and most of the project are assigned irrelevant to your skills saying that you will have to be a polyglot developer.
