Updates on my current resignation situation: 55 days are over, 35 days remaining. i haven't got a single interview call(yes not even an hr call!?!) since I put open to work on linkedin. I am thinking of rescinding my resignation
Here are some points about my current org, help me decide:
1. Physical
+ 3days wfo, 34km away from home (the next silicon valley area is around 500km far, in another state)
- 2hrs of commute from home, no energy left after work time is over
2. Tech
+ We are using very latest tech in softwares, the leaders are pushing for us to learn AI as well.
- there aren't much people with in depth knowledge, its like enough monkeys with typewriters will produce a shakespeare somehow
3. People and culture:
+ People are very energetic, vocal and fast paced
+ Work is done under ever "improving"(changing) ruleset, with discipline and in a process oriented manner
+ I have been here for almost 3 years, so have a decent professional relationship with team
- rules are made and applied according to convenience. People playing good games seems to work around these rules
- unrealistic deadlines and over work
- Too much pressure to "outshine" and "go over and above" to even expect a basic appreciation
- non respctful, shouting culture, people are not really friends but rather playing the "survival of the fittest, loudest and most aggresive" game
4. Brand
+ Company's name is reputable, its known for rarely ever doing layoffs and people have a sense of security
+ My salary is decent, marketworthy for the role that I am in (SE1)
- with 5+ yoe, both my role and salary is not as per market standards (should be atleast SE2)
