Tell me if this sounds like a trap to you. The management team wants to give the rest of us a chance to provide constructive upward feedback. They are sending us anonymous surveys to fill out before the holiday break. IDK, something about all of this screams trap to me.

Hi
I will be joining cisco bangalore soon
Can anyone share with me the holiday list for oct 2022

Just need to know if there's diwali holiday or not

Thanks

I'm graduating in a few weeks, is to weird to send a holiday gift like wine or a Christmas Card along with my resume? I haven't been hearing back from the companies i have been applying to and I'm looking to stand out.

Ate so poorly on vacation im scared to weigh myself 😣

I heard most of us are off for some holiday next week, so enjoy the day off to prepare for the holiday!

Has anyone attended the Holiday Hi-Light Festival? Is it worth doing?

Living in a ~700 unit rental building with 50+ staff - any suggested holiday tipping? Staff at the building come and go all the time (we just got a whole new wave of doormen in November)

Does anyone know the exact holiday dates that we will have in the last week of December? Has anyone received any email communication regarding this?

I have been working in SEA region last 4 years. I feel burned out. I have 10yoe, I have try to move to other country but I pretty much suck in LeetCode. I want to take some time off to unwind, finish some personal business, and really prepare for interviews. I would like to hear from you. Should I quit to my current manager(5th so far) or wait after mid year performance review, when a new boss will take over my team? I'm thinking on giving them 2 months notice period. By contract is 1.

Thanks

Unlimited PTO... love it or hate it? If your company has it, do you feel able to take it as needed, or is there push-back for "important meetings?"

Should I take this role?
Pros: 50k bump, company is full remote, no time tracking software, unlimited PTO, 10k in quarterly bonuses, vertical move in responsibility and title, will set me up for future roles in different companies with the title I am looking for (so strategic move)

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent to my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t grow my network as much, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)

Do you fly out to family for the holidays or do they come to you? We're hosting Christmas for the first time and having the entire family come to town for it. What are some can't miss holiday events in the city? Ideally accessible because my father is in a wheelchair.

Hello everyone! How do you manage holiday pay when the holiday is on a Saturday/ Sunday.
