Weekly meetings make me wanna kms
>>109889741I have a daily and all my teammates are jeets, stop whining
>>109889755I am the jeet that scams through izzat and doesn't do shit though.
>>109889755Are they good lads? The Sikh at my first company invited me to his new home and gave me lots of good food. Yeah many are simpletons, but they can still be ok
>>109889814They’re nice, one (the most useless and retarded) even invited me to his marriage (in India lol) but I would throw them all in a fire to never have to hear that accent again
>>109889903Thats so wholesome! Its nice he invited you to the wedding too
ai has destroyed timelines, the expectation is to have everything instantly, no consideration for dev or planning time just do it now, it's like even the boomers have become dopamine chasing addicts
What are you working towards?What are you living for?What is beautiful to you?What is your inward sanctuary and outward utopia?
>>109889741>Weekly 60-90m meetings make me wanna sleep>but they are actually super productive in the sense that everything presented in them needs addressing by either party (us or the client) and every singular point is closed in 10 minutes or less
>if you move to the Chinese branch you can live in a dorm with others>move as associate manager for better conditions Is this the ultimate cure for loneliness?!Why nobody ever mentions that? Seems like the perfect life-hack and money saving measure.
>>109889755>daily meeting with multiple teams>my teams portion of the project has been done for months>once every few weeks they ask me a question>"sorry can you repeat that, I wasn't listening"
laid off June 263 months later and i think i will never work in tech againwhere is electrician and hvac general?>captcha burn in hell
>>109889387>mfw the CEO and CIO use Claude all day long and are convinced Clade Code > Github > Copilot pipeline will automate every bit of our development across all stacks, so we're cutting long term consultants
I work for an MSP as a tier 3 engineer, life's good
>>109890878Just do the best you can. Maybe you'll find a spot domewhere else, maybe you'll get the boomerang offer if not when it finally costs too much to hide.
>>109890162Holy shit, they're using enlisted housing as a job benefit now?
>>109889418>... anon is typing>
>>109890989Thanks bro, aggressively applying to everything, 110 jobs in the past 3 weeks.
>>109890995 I'm not associated with military in amy way.I'm a corpo-furry. We have branches all over the world and I worked long enough to be considered for an international tranfer. I like China.
>>109889387Move to Japan
>>109891318Hello, fellow Japan adorerI am curious what your motives are for posting this message so frequently. Are you currently living there and are feeling lonely, wanting the company of fellow white developers that also happened to be very degenerate and spend all of their time online?Or is it possible that you want a few developers to move to Japan so you can live vicariously through them until you gain enough courage and knowledge from their trailblazing to attempt such a challenge yourself.
>>109891366its probably astroturfing like half of everything else on 4chan
just got a job in Chicago. I visited and it seemed much more dense than LA. I imagine it's a huge upgrade from my current residence, Bakersfield.
>>109891394For what gain? Its not a product, service, or lifestyle
>>109889387guys I am thankful I have a job and am not job hunting but I also don't feel like working at my current job. It's miserable and AI slop is making things unmanageable. It's like no one understands what they are creating and then debugging problems is retarded now
>>109891460most states, cities, and countries have marketing teams. you can google that japan has a documented shortage of tech workers. without debating whether that shortage is actually true or not, there are bullshit NGO jobs who do stuff like this all day in various forms.
>>109891446This is a white man's board, Hapa Dan
>>109889387
>>109890909enjoy it while you can.trying to transition into internal IT, 10 YOE doing stuff like infrastructure/application/OS support through consulting but i can't find a damn thing.but all the god damn IT positions i find are either>good-sized corp but with 15 branches and you have to travel weekly between them>small-to medium corps where you basically have 50% of the whole thing on your shoulders so they expect stuff like unpaid overtime
>>109891232Barracks housing is what they force on the enlisted. Getting married is one way thwy can get either on-base housing or a stipend towards getting a place off base. It's considered more premium living quarters.
>>109889418what do you want?
>>109889755>all my teammates are jeetsyou're fault for working with them
>>109890878based. fuck paying overpriced "consultants."
>>109891493Lmao, the question is if no one understands what's happening, everyone vibe codes not looking at the code, barely reviewing even, then that means everyone becomes a braindead deskilled monkey that can't fizzbuzz without an LLM whispering in their ear?If corporate systems are vibe coded using high level languages, which now have become low level for developers themselves and everyone is too deskilled to make sense of it without relying on an LLM, what happens then? When something as high level as Java becomes akin to assembly in terms of abstractions, then what? Nobody will know how to write or maintain it except for LLM, then why use human readable language at all? Are they going to create a non-human readable high level language to replace the current at least readable ones motivating it being "more effective" in order to completely lock away human devs? But LLM wasn't trained on it.
would twg still love me even if i was hispanic
>12% salary adjustment/"retention bonus", separate from the yearly pay raise (already got a 4% raise this past April)>Already opted into an additional bonus that's based on 10% of base salary, separate from the yearly company wide bonus given out (profit sharing)>No new terms or changes to my employment setup >Explicitly told I have no obligation to commute to the office space "Ya know ye ain't have to be here lad, yah?"What the fuck. Are we heading towards the crash?
>>109892419We don't suck taco farts here, paco
Do you hate it that after you merge all of your changes after review and get them deployed only to realize you completely and utterly misinterpreted the acceptance criteria?I hate everything right now, oh well time to fap and deal with it tomorrow.
>>109892432My raise this year was 1.6%Last year was 1.9%
>>109892508not that kind of hispanic... like the lowk chill aryan 70% white hisp not the landscaping olmec goblin type hisp...
>>109892638Ya'll are getting raises?
>AI means I need to make a giant PR quickly>still expected to run code reviews>have to get delaying it because I need way more time to figure out wtf is going on in this PRI'm just shifting dev time to AI output review time
>>109890786>where is electrician and hvac general?>>>/diy/but I think you'd be useful staying here lmao
>>109892638Last year I got 3.5% due to market downtrend that year.Now technically my position and sector is more /diy/ oriented but nobody there fucking knows shit about mining, let alone the autonomous systems in usage nowadays + telemetry stuff. Amongst other things.>>109892792I thought every job ever gave them.
>>109892902I work in power/energy automation but still post here, it’s tech as far as I’m concerned
>workers ITT get <4% raises during times of 10+% inflationyou guys know your employers are taking advantage of you and are actually making you poorer, right?
>>109893172Stagflation broStagnant economyLow fire, slow hire ratesHigh inflationLine go up marginally = no incentive for higher raises (think of the stockholders!!)Death by a thousand cuts
>>109892902>I thought every job ever gave them.Not mine, ever since after covid, best they could do is to give me and my co-workers a bonus of a few grand at the end of each year instead. (I don't even get the bonus).
>>109893172Whaaat??? No way???? So I should quit my job and search for six months instead????
>>109893196>Line go up marginallyThese companies have a ton of cash and are wasting it in the """AI""" LLM meme LMAO>>109893287>>109893299>I'm a coward and don't live within my means to save for the future so I'd rather not ask for a raise
>>109893352>ask for a raiseWe don't all work for mom and pop boomer stores anon. The raise is set by corporate HR for all 100k+ employees
>>109893352>>I'm a coward and don't live within my means to save for the future so I'd rather not ask for a raiseProjection once again (VERY obvious). I have requested a raise plenty of times, and gotten it a few times. But recently they've just been making excuses and such.I also live very well in my means and been saving a fuck ton as a result, but that fact is so obvious to anyone else with a fully developed and healthy frontal lobe that it went without saying, until you came along.
>>109893352Fuck, someone had a rough day at the office. Don't be angry at us, anon. We are not your enemy.
>>109893430>>109893433You guys have non-compete contracts or some shit? I brought a job offer to the office one day a few years ago and managed to get my salary matched to that competitor without any additional strings attached + I told the guy who would've been my boss to lick my arse lmao
>>109893491>arseOh youre a jeet, that explains it
>>109893430>tech worker>>We don't all work for mom and pop boomer stores anonno, I work for a big corporation. they make money thanks to me. I DESERVE maintaining my economic status.>>109893433>Projectiondo you even know what that word means?I could live quite nicely for about 10 years with my savings. I also get automatic raises every quarter according to inflation, so my wage is 60% higher than my initial wage (I joined this company 6 years ago). I still ask for raises to pressure my boss lmao>once againyou might have mental issues. get that paranoia checked, retard.>>109893461??anon, as part of the tech worker you have a responsibility to make sure your employers know your value as an individual AND out value as a collective.
>>109893541Southern boy working for a Britbong companyI be from the holler and steal everyone's lingo like they were copper pipe
Why do deranged faggots always post here? Is it because no one will talk to them irl?
I'm looking for a job and my previous recruiter said he didnt have anything at the moment (is he brushing me off without telling me? who knows). so I'm about to just spam decent looking linkedin job postings.usually 30% of the people applying have masters degrees and at least 75% of applicants are entry level. which is interesting since those two circles are definitely not separate. it gives me moderate hope, but well see
>>109893592not that anon but theres a website like this where people who arent deranged or faggots post. its called reddit. you should check it out. plenty of wholesome chungus good guy gregs to discuss tech working with.
>>109893777Aww are you upset that this isn't your safe hugbox space to shit post without annoying people? Maybe reddit is 4 u
nta but>>109893592>Why do deranged faggots always post here?>>109893802>Aww are you upset that this isn't your safe hugbox space to shit post without annoying people?you should read your own posts, you deranged retard
>>109893867My post wasn't a shit post, it was a question about the state of this general
>>109893875the answer is IMO that someone or some group is trying to destroy it. could be the sharty fags using bots or who knows what.now if you are calling "deranged" the anon who said you should ask for raises (that was me), then you might be retarded.but you told the other anon that this isn't his safe space while complaining about deranged people in fucking 4chan of all places... like, wtf do you expect from this shithole? anon >>109893777 was right, reddit is for you.
