I WFH, and my spouse does too for the most part (since the pandemic) but every once in a blue moon, his company forces him back into the office for meetings. It's so weird to me since all meetings are basically zoom but they randomly decide they have to be face to face for something. So, just for fun, let's gripe about our last in-house role lol…

I feel you! As a developer, I don’t want to talk about sports, or the weather, and our vacation or your kids, i want to be left alone so I can focus and get my development work done and tested.

My last in-house role was in 2018. Will never return to an office and glad to work for a company with no offices in my state. 😌

My biggest complaint is in my last role I was asked to return to the office so I did- I would get calls from the controller 10 feet away instead of her just walking over and talking to me face to face. She said being face to face with colleagues was crucial for team building. Um. Ok.

That awkward moment when you and a coworker are at opposite ends of a long hallway. You don’t want to wave too early cus then it’s weird, but also there’s no where else to look unless you take out your phone but that’s weird. I’m too awkward to not wfh.

Looking to get into SaaS sales but my experience is in construction and fine furniture (I was a sales manager and was able to lead my team of 4 people to consistently hit 450k monthly targets). I did that for almost 2 years before making the switch. I miss sales, though. Does anyone have any connections to companies looking? I have also considered a sales analyst role considering that I am moderately versed in Salesforce and have worked both the customer facing and sales generating side. TIA!

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
