Why are corporate jobs so boring? Should I just quit my job and try to find my passion? It might take years to do that. I am getting this feeling like I'm wasting my time here in this job doing the same things again and again. It's not like I'm gonna be Ambani or Tata like super rich with this job nor am I helping the society with it. If I wanna be mediocre, I better be mediocre in something that I like doing. Are my thoughts justified or am I just being crazy and impractical?

Mostly Everyone of us has gone through this stage bro. But more practically only 1/100 businesses are successful whereas a job assurance keeps your life peaceful.. if you wanted to make a societal impact go join an NGO on the side.. but don’t lure into the idea of a business just because you are bored of your job.. most likely a more interesting job profile would keep things more sustainable in your life. Ye passion wasion sab filmy batie hai.

Hi everyone!

This isn’t really an interview question but more of an on-boarding question.
Bit of background- I left my job of 3 years in Dec 2021 for a new company. Initially, I thought the company was great but my mind quickly changed. The on-boarding process was horrible, minimal training, thrown onto enterprise project 2 weeks in, over time, and there is no process for anything. I ended up hating my job.

Fast forward to Mid March, I started applying for jobs again but I omitted this role.

I’ve got about 20 years cross channel experience in marketing, split between big brands and startups, and I’m considering pivoting into a data science/data analyst role. I know it will initially be a step back in comp but is it at all realistic for a person with certificate level experience in data analysis but a decent marketing management background to expect $150-200k comp or is that mostly for degreed candidates (or not realistic at all)? Any guidance here is greatly appreciated.

Hey guys! Can we leave a company within 2 weeks of joining?

5+ years of full-time job as developer and still waiting to reverse a LinkedList at work.

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.

Problem solving skill >>> DSA

So I get that in a corporate set up, you are supposed to be sharp and witty and think on your feet. Trouble is, I am extremely slow with comebacks. (Think Ross in Friends/Amy in B99) at the crunch moment, I generally end up not being able to give a good roast back. Unfortunately the best of them come to me like a few hours later (dinner/shower/TV) and I am left ruing and amazing opportunity to have gotten one back. I am awful at jibes and roasts.

Anyone else suffer from this?
