6 Figures 6 Certs Random Thoughts Thread

The thing about data is, if the company has shyt data and no plans to improve, any job involving using the data is going to be hell. “Yes that would be nice to see, but you’re not capturing that data point” rinse and repeat.

I do know that I’ve interviewed several places and never once asked ETL processes or if there are any standards for the data. I mean I asked which technology they use for ETL, but not if they gave a fukk about the end product of the process. I have to formulate some insight around that so I can put it on my list of standard questions.

Project management is looking a tad more peaceful, but that depends too. It’s really the company.

Almost missed it since it's in TLR but definitely up a lot of 6F6C posters' alley I'd imagine:

My OG manager officially processed out today. The vibe hasn't been right since switching over and my teammate kind of confirmed some feelings in a quick meeting we had today. OG, Finance manager and the finance director (the Indian guy I've mentioned) started butt heads. Seems thee original plan was to move OG to IT from under the Indian to form his own group. Instead they forced him out and still moved his team to IT.

The one guy from our team that stayed under the Indian, apparently they have been documenting his processes very closely. My teammate believes we will eventually be forced out after we teach them the systems the OG had in place.

Right now we are definitely pushing over to a helpdesk situation and I'm not comfortable with that at all. I don't mind a project management environment, but I'm dealing with ticketing systems and the such, which I have training for tomorrow . They also tossed me in an odd 8 hour training for building templates with some outdated technology.

Had my end of year review last week. Went well. Def made it very clear that I deserved a promotion esp for the shyt i had to deal with since the new year started. Of course I'll know near the end of the month what my raise and bonus will actually be

Had an interview yesterday that didn't go that well because the position wasn't the best fit with my skills.

Recruiter followed up today and they asked would I be interested in interviewing for a different position that's better suited to my skills

Been in a hardcore fukk it mood for the past month. Stretched work I could have done in a couple of days out over a couple of weeks. If only they gave me a reason to give a damn

 

[OfTheCross]

2 week notice or nah?

depends on the job...are you switching fields or levelling up? if no, it don't matter.

If you're making a parallel move for more money in the same field, give them 2 weeks

It’d be great if people didn’t add me to meetings 10 minutes after they start and then slack me asking if I’m going to join the meeting

It’d be great if people didn’t add me to meetings 10 minutes after they start and then slack me asking if I’m going to join the meeting

I hate that shyt with a passion.

 

[Tr0yTV]

Gave myself 2 months to get a new job and move. Failed.

Gonna give myself 6 months to cert up, find a remote job that doubles my salary, and move to LA or NY. Looking forward to the challenge.
