HSBC and Barclays reveal the reality of the great resignation https://www.efinancialcareers.com/news/2022/02/banks-graduate-recruitment
So i’ve been working here coming on 2 years (WFM technical support for an insurance based company) and there are newer people doing the same thing and one in particular is scoring low on our QA reviews so the QA dept is trying to see if our manager will approve a 2nd monitor for each of us to help handle taking live chats + emails at the same time. I’m having no problem with this. What I do really want is to have a laptop I can work from. The equipment we use is this huge monitor + chrome box. I am wanting to plead my case for a laptop so Im more mobile (can work from bed, the couch, other places, easier to travel). I just can’t think of a very good explanation that would make it more of an accommodation and less “I want to be able to…
Questions about a company!
Does anyone here currently or has previously worked at T-ROC? It is a wireless phone company that sources out to Walmart and other stores. Going through orientation and they are very adamant that we not discuss our compensation. What are you guy’s experiences?
To do more or no
Guys at my work it’s not said but it can be seen if you do well or more for the team you get rewarded into doing more stuff or helping out on harder stuff or being chosen to work with other teams to help them as well. But although I’m not being paid as much it would be a good feeling to be chosen to help do harder stuff or helping other teams with their filing. And it just makes me think should I do more to make me feel like I’m better or just not care 🤔 it’s my first job I don’t know how to act LOL
I don’t know what I do
Hi, I'm 25 years old, I'm graduate at Computer Science and I don't jnow what I do in my life. I mean, working 8-10 hours a day, seat on my desk with my pc that's makes me depresse, sad, lack of energy and I know that I'm losing my time and my life to do things that I don't care. I don't know what I do. Thanks for answers. P.S. Sorry for my English.
Advice for those new to the workforce:
For those who are well versed with all kinds of employment situations and wanna pay it forward, put down some advice that can help the next generation of workers that are just starting out. Just to start, advocate for what you want out of the job. There’s no shame in asking for a higher wage and better treatment. If the place your applying for doesn’t provide enough, go somewhere else. A job that treats you well will come eventually. Be patient and advocate for yourself.
COO Saw My Glassdoor Review
So I was an idiot and reviewed my current job because Glassdoor was asking for a review to be able to use it. Because of my title, apparently, it wasn't anonymous enough and it's been traced back to me. A work friend in a higher position said that the COO was asking her about the review because we used to work together. I edited it a little bit to be softer than the original and changed the position title. Is there anything I should know in case it gets brought up to me by higher-ups?
