Corporate bunking
We only had one day holiday officially, but noone has logged in since Friday and no work is being done ( only half of the ppl are officially doing work)
freshers/people looking for switch, check out noon.com
noon is an e-commerce platform in the middle east market. They operate from gurgaon - standard pay, nice folks . Gave an interview recently, if you know sql and you are good with storytelling, you are golden. instead of directly applying on linkedin - shoot a mail to their growth manager or sr management.
Why am I not happy with my job? It feels like I am getting stuck in deep and noone is able to understand me..
