Moved from a culture of off camera meetings to an (internal) role in an org where cameras on, while balancing 5-6 hours a day of meetings. I am struggling two months in. Our boss also recently let us know that she thinks a “dress code” needs to be enforced. I am finding it miserable, because I still have work to do, and oftentimes don’t need to be on cam.

Love the job. Hate the meeting culture. I get the camera on policy for 1-1s or small groups but when going over a spreadsheet who cares?

Hey ZSers,

I have been selected into ZS for the BTAC role under CCM(Customer-Centric Marketing). My YOE is 3.8 in Cognizant, and the domain is ETL, DW, cloud(AWS).

My question is, ZS is giving a great package compared to what I have in Cognizant (Above 100% hike), and Cognizant is ready to retain me by giving somewhere 50%-60% hike. Will ZS be a good choice for me to switch? In terms of growth, technologies, work, pay. Or should I accept what cognizant is giving and get retained?

Sometimes I don't uphold the company mission 😱

Is it really that difficult to get hired for a federal job? I was interviewed for a GS12 job but never heard back, they still didn’t hire anyone and I didn’t get a rejection. I applied for another GS07 job, was accepted, I took it, but I believe I can do better. I have a master’s and have extra graduate research experience. I am still applying to new jobs but I was told it is impossible to move up the grade level now. Everyone is telling me to stick with the government. What are your thoughts?

A person in the financial/wealth-building industry with title “Director, Manager Selection at _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _” is willing to talk to me about “quantitative”roles at their firm.

We emailed a bit back and forth and now he said he can have a call with me…. I’m so nervous…! Idk what kinda things to even talk about? They HAVE to know I’m looking for a job, but idk how to be sly about that?? It seems like they’d be taking a risk on me due to my background not being very standard…
