Just got rejected to roll of when I had something else lined up with perfect transition and a strong backfill. Its absolute bullshit and it's probably the reason while I will quit. I won't forget this.

It depends on your role and other opportunities - sometimes rolling off someone the client likes and trusts is disruptive and that has to be factored in.

Anyone who doesn't weigh that in is too novice or dishonest.

Yes. Talk to your counselor and try to get something else lined up first.

I got denied for promotion in my current organization and was released to bench from my project, despite being eligible for the same.
I was suffering through health issues and tried my level best to balance work and my doctor's appointments. Yet, this is the ending that I had to see.
What should I do? I'm feeling lost as I have 2.25 YoE and I'm in a domain where it's next to impossible to switch company. Please help!

Now would be the time to change it within our dept if we’re ever going to. Currently we have: (see comments)

Hi All,
I have a question about replicating an Alteryx model in python. Basically the Alteryx model used to clean, combine, prep, run some business rules and spit out a formatted file ready for running further analysis/viz. Can this same process be automated using a python script? I’m new to python and would like to know what packages to learn to do this.
Thanks!
