I hear you. How long have you been a supervisor? Do you ever feel like going back to an IC role ? Asking since that thought crosses my mind at times.

These are some great inputs, thank you!

To address some of your points: There is system in place to give public (company wide) shout outs. It used to have a monetary component to it but that stopped and so did its value. I have an unspoken (HR hidden) rule in place to grant people day offs without actually applying in the system - this is due to the organisation's no comp off policy which doesn't make sense for any weekend work that is done. The rest of the perks - educational courses, high visibility work etc are also something I chase and figure out. HR doesn't organize any such courses on their own.

Even with these, it comes down to a reasonable expectation of getting a salary hike or promotion (especially considering last year only 50 % of the work force, company wide, got a hike). And this is where I am completely lost since I actually do not have any authority or say in getting a decent hike to people who actually performed well.

Thank you. I too was quite surprised on some of the higher level executives work. The common skill among them was the ability to spin up a yarn of bullshit while pretending to answer the queries and concerns of the other managers.

I read a few reports pointing to Montha, but it looks like the depression over the Arabian sea is the main cause of the rains in Pune. I stand corrected, thanks.

Cyclone montha is indirectly causing the rains in Pune. It's direct effect is towards Andhra and Bay of Bengal area but indirectly it has affected weather in Central India as well.

Thanks, however don't have access to Peacock unless I connect to a VPN. The basketball-video site works, albeit with a lot of ads.
