My cubicle neighbor has essentially checked out of this job and spends half the day trading personal crypto while I carry our entire portfolio weight. Management thinks our team is doing great because I’m working until midnight to keep us afloat, so his laziness is completely invisible to the higher-ups. I don't want to be a rat, but I’m physically deteriorating from doing the work of two people for one salary. How would you handle this?

Is no one aware? I should think at least your boss might be. The problem (and I speak from experience) is once you overfunction, it often becomes expected. And if you suddenly stop, it’ll be noticed. You may have to slowly lessen. But the bigger issue is either they know and aren’t doing anything…or they’re completely checked out that they don’t know. Neither is good.

Stop. Talk to leadership.

You should't do the work of a team just because someone else isn't carrying their weight. I can see the dilemma you're in though: if you rat him out and you share a cube with him there's a good chance it will cause animosity and awkwardness. Maybe have a chat with him and tell him you need help because you're working long hours to keep up. If things don't change then go to management. You might even request to be switched to another cubicle.

4) Is there value in attending the Pre Recruiter Call/ Candid Calls?
5) How do they expect ppl to take a full day off for “maybe”?

Hello Fishes,
I am much stressed.. it’s only been 5 months to join Capgemini. I joined in as cyber security consultant with good package.
However, the work I do the tricks, logics and solutions I share with team to apply in the project… all are of no use when discussed with the architect guy. The whole team rely upon the wordings/solutions suggested by him only. It feels like my skill/knowledge and experience is of no use.
I feel like what am I doing here….? Any suggestions please.

Really excited for this sweetie to be coming home with us tomorrow. She’s an awesome 4 month old rescue mystery mutt and my other dog has been really lonely since his sister passed away.
