India is about to get a whole lot of woodworkers and gardeners.
That sounds like a .... good thing?
PS: I didn't realize wood working and gardening are therapeutic. Sounds like a wonderfully productive solution to a pesky problem.
As a 4 day tech worker, 1 day community gardener, I can vouch for the therapeutic nature!
I worked (in USA) at an IT firm that was constantly stretched thin. I wanted to move on but the burnout made searching for a new position very draining. The best thing that happened was two rounds of layoffs. I was one of the highest paid staff and got let go.
I now work at an org that is incredibly well-staffed with awesome tooling. My job is incredibly easy by comparison. I had drinks with my former manager (a pretty good friend) last week. He's considering moving on this summer due to broken promises of a bonus and a raise. Taking my job away from me was the biggest favor they could have given me.
Sounds like it was a good idea to leave. What I dont get is that your ex manager hasnt left despite broken promises. Basic trust is like the only thing that holds me anywhere.
I think he feels a sense of loyalty, or used to. They promoted him into a leadership position. He hasn't had it long enough to come into a new org at the same level. He's been a manager for three years. We discussed five years being the minimum viable experience (in our convo) to translate to the same position in another org.
That what happens when you race to the bottom.
I had to get some login issues fixed working for a big tech company that had outsourced that particular set of work. The Indian person I interacted with could not give a fuck less. Total burnout, I felt bad for him.
Explains the output of the contractors my company is determined to use
Nah, that's just because your company uses the cheapest of the cheap.
