Rant and Feeling confused
Just moved from a WFH startup to a Full WFO legacy corporate company.
These corpo people talk so much, too much restrictions to get access or to create a MVP, a lot of unnecessary paperwork/ email loops.
I feel sleepy all day and these people find and make you speak hell lot making me confused and feeling that I have done no work and what will I say about deliverables 🥲.
Side note: renovation going on so not getting any corner + the setting are like this getting it is difficult 😭
Any suggestions or I am over reacting 😄

block time on calendars just for getting work done. Have frequent coffee breaks, invest in good anc headphones.
Dont hesitate to reach out and ask for help, keep sharing even smallest of updates in standups, dont need to create unnecessary pressure on yourself for these updates
any task, break down to granular level, show it to leads/stakeholders then only begin to keep everything transparent
dont need to engage in any gossip, keep to yourself and your personal shit to yourself
learn polite corpo speak(please, thank you, the basics), it might seem superficial but its always safest
Have frequent (monthly) 1-1 s with manager with a set template, asking honest feedback, this would ensure no surprises during appraisals/shit goes down
Lastly, figure and carve out your niche, something that you should be known for in company when anyone thinks of that particular task, this will keep your visibility high
was in exact same shoes hence can hard relate.
