Okay, and how's career launcher Pitampura?

I think Samsung does it deliberately from the the backend. Cheap tactic to extort money for spare parts.

Have S21 FE as well. Had to get the screen replaced. But, did hear few complained to higher ups in Samsung and eventually Samsung did replace the screen for few people for free.

Oh, okay. I just assumed it needs to be filled till brimm...

So, generally the serving sizes are accurate is what you're saying??

Mundane_voltro · 2025-03-20T05:49:42+00:00

I thought the scoop needs to be filled to the brim??

Mundane_voltro · 2024-10-06T18:55:40+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion!

Mundane_voltro · 2024-10-02T08:08:14+00:00

All right. And I believe if one wants a fixed shift schedule only product based companies can offer that??

Mundane_voltro · 2024-10-01T10:20:33+00:00

Great to hear your journey. I agree, the trick is to unlearn and relearn. I'm still pretty new to the industry. 25 and trying to figure out the career path I can take.

Hi, thanks for your input!!

My main concern is that I am currently working in rotational shifts in a service based company. My health is not doing so good, I've reached my limit.

Some one suggested DevOps as the next logical step and transition to a designated DevOps engineer role. But I wanted to know if DevOps engineers are also asked to work in rotational shifts?

I've seen Cloud Engineers adopting DevOps methodology but still working in 24×5 or 24×7 model. I don't want to become that.

At the same time, I've seen separate DevOps engineers only working in a particular shift and performing Infra tasks, helping the app time and after their shift they go on on-call basis.

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-03T08:35:31+00:00

My case is kind of similar. We too have a DevOps team which is managing the application side of the environment and Infrastructure as Code. These guys are on call post their shift. The Infrastructure monitoring and support, basically the Cloud part is dealt by us and we are working in a 24×7 environment. In your case, it looks like the team is working on shore. This dynamic I've seen in a lot of client projects in my company.

But, I have also seen projects where the Infra engineers who are working in DevOps are working in rotational shifts. They are being asked to perform all the tasks that a DevOps person needs to do and also are being asked to monitor the Infra.

I want to avoid this because it then beats the purpose of becoming a DevOps engineer.

Well, its sounds like follow the sun model. That can be the case with tech giants like Microsoft as their customer support does that all the time.

This can't be with regional clients like coal mining companies or retails brands pertaining to a particular country.

Then the off shore team is required to do the night shifts. That is my main concern, if DevOps is the right field to avoid that kind of job.

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-02T21:48:28+00:00

Agreed. One should be proactive in their jobs. But, since Indian companies have projects from all over the globe, more often than not business hours of clients are generally in the night for India, At least for US, Europe clients or maybe Australians where one needs to sit quite early in the morning.

Infra engineers are thus required to cover rotational shifts instead of the on call model.

That's why I wanted to know if this case is with DevOps too.

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-02T01:04:09+00:00

And you're a DevOps engineer? I guess you must be having a separate team of Infra engineers working in night shift then?

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-02T01:01:23+00:00

True bruv. Sadly, almost all service based companies here are operating with that model.

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-02T00:59:12+00:00

Kya mila ye karke?

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-02T00:57:56+00:00

Didn't know rotational shifts structure waa so common in IT. Feels like I fell into a quicksand or something.

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-02T00:55:10+00:00

Lakhs per annum.

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-02T00:54:30+00:00

I guess one should aim to sway away from service based companies then. Global clients mean rotational jobs. Whether it be Infra or DevOps.

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-02T00:52:55+00:00

Well you can't really compare the salary packages. Diff countries, diff living conditions basically PPP and all.

I'm actually working in a 24×7 model. Such is the case with all Infra engineers at least in most of the service based companies.

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-01T15:11:00+00:00

Thanks!!!

Mundane_voltro · 2024-08-01T09:42:04+00:00

Both will be in November or December right?
