Is it just me, or does a hybrid work schedule feel like a slap in the face to anyone else? It's like your employer is saying, we know you're perfectly capable of working on your own at home, but just for funzies, we want you to come into the office several days a week, just so we can be sure you don't start enjoying your life.

No offence but you’re kinda late to the party here. Many of us are long past a hybrid schedule at this point and are looking at 5 days a week mandated RTO.

And ya, it’s a massive slap in the face.

I’m pretty happy with hybrid. I never want to go back to the office 5 days a week, but fully remote isn’t my favorite thing either.

MBA with Total YOE - 7+, relevant YOE- 5.3 , Skills - CYBERSECURITY,GRC, Audit.

I have got two offers

2. Airbus - 23 CTC + 5 L JB
I really wanted to work with Airbus but they are not budging from the offer of 23 even after I told them I have a better offer from Genpact with better position. HR said they will come back..

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
