I think we all know that saying "a team should be small enough to share a pizza". Have you seen larger groups make it work, though? If so, how did you choose the right people? My first guess would be you focused more on collaboration skills.

Collaboration skills are key, but clear roles and strong communication make larger teams work too. Picking people who can adapt, take ownership, and communicate openly usually keeps the group effective.

I feel left out in my firm. How do I make 'friends' with my colleagues? I've been here for a year.

It is an important trait to have in this job and I just don't know how to do this. It makes me very upset - I even sought therapy but wasn't useful. I can't spend 14 hours each day feeling like this:(

How do you all deal with the guilt of leaving a comany/ team? I have been working at Microsoft for 1 year now, and seriously considering moving. I find the code base to be very legacy and I mostly work on obscure bugs that I spend so much time on, mostly due to navigating this large code base and not having much docs to refer to. Hence I find the job slightly unsatisfying, and that I could learn more elsewhere. However, I love the wlb, the team and company culture. The guilt stops my applying.

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time.
