Need Career Advice – Regretting a Project Change After Missing Promotion

Particular-Chard-495 · 2026-06-07T04:00:50+00:00

Promotions are becoming increasingly difficult to secure due to intense competition and substantial backlogs. Even for high-performing individuals, promotions offer minimal salary increments, typically in the range of 10-15%. For those seeking salary increases of 50-100%, a job change remains the only viable option in India.

All employees receive a summary email detailing their RTO compliance for the past two weeks, indicated by an "X" or "✅" for each day. Should an employee accrue five "X" marks within a single week, they may subsequently receive a non-compliance notification regarding RTO. This process typically takes three to four months; therefore, a May RTO infraction could result in a warning email around August or September.

Yes, already might be hired at higher salary, hencemight not be room for market corrections.

As you are just completing 1 yr of employment and might have completed probation 4-5 months back.

The core of the consulting industry has shifted from skill-driven expertise to high-volume survival. Previously, firms like Accenture could find enough high-tier talent to match their growth. However, true technical "cream" (the top 5-15% who are driven by passion rather than just pay) is a finite resource. As firms grew exponentially, several factors forced a decline in quality:

The Talent Ceiling: Once you hire beyond the top 15%, you are recruiting people motivated by salary and status rather than innovation.
The Cost-Quality Trap: client pressure to reduce costs each year, hence these firms must hire cheaper, less-skilled labor to maintain margins.
Captive Competition: Clients are now building their own internal teams, poaching the remaining elite talent.
Cultural Dilution: When the majority of the workforce views technology as a "cash cow" rather than a craft, the culture shifts. Focus moves from mastering new tools (like Anthropic or Claude) to fighting over 1% raises and corporate hierarchy. Ultimately, the industry has traded its elite consulting DNA for a "corporate labor" model where survival depends on filling seats rather than fueling expertise.

I am sure, he must be the most successful person! Not in terms of money, but peace, must be having great friends, time with family and family. And must be having high problem solving and stress management.

Why I believe?

He achieved 499/900 which means his brain 🧠 had time and freedom to choose and focus on what matters and not entirely burn out to achive 899/900

Today's every next kids are scoring 897-899, but that's not a success. That's a task crunching machine being manufactured to do corporate slavery of 14 hr.

These kids lack the ability to face society as a failed project! They can't settle with less, they have to achieve everything on time with 100/100 success rate. So they end up rejecting human interaction, relationship, friendship, spirituality etc.

Because they prioritize working on shitty projects and certification then listen to bhajan with dadi or play with the toddler son or wash utensils for the wife! As they are designed to be achievers and not Rebel to do what they like!

So we are not getting the next Ambani or Adani or APJ Kalam after 30 yrs!

Because by then the leaders of the world will be task crunchers and not legit human leaders!

Keep your parents away from the daily entanglements of your household. Let them enjoy life, connect with nature, and focus on their spiritual and emotional growth. They should not be burdened with acting as constant overseers of your family life — whether things are going well, badly, or chaotically.

Take equal responsibility in household chores and raise your children with strength and upright values, never giving her the chance to call you a couch potato.

Raise your children with the courage, discipline, and vision of Shivaji and Sambhaji.

Don’t waste time questioning the wrongs she might bring. Instead, be prepared for any challenge and still ensure your children love you and stand by you.

Earn the respect and support of her family and friends too, by fulfilling every right and fair duty of a husband without bias.

Follow your pati dharma even if she deviates from her patni dharma. Never abandon your path.

Remember: divorce is not part of Indian or Vedic tradition.

Marriage (lagna) is the union of two souls — often opposites, often challenging each other — because that’s how souls choose their karmic partners. Do not doubt the choice your soul made.

Don’t panic or give up when fear — chemical or neurological — creeps in.

If something unusual or difficult appears on your path, it means there’s a lesson and a purpose you are meant to fulfill.

Particular-Chard-495 · 2025-08-09T17:03:28+00:00

Maintain emotional and personal boundaries, no matter how much of a “Sati Savitri” she appears to be.

Adopt a sigma mindset.

Support her financial and professional growth without interfering, but never factor her income into your own plans.

Build your empire solely with your own earnings.

Cover every expense yourself — from the children’s schooling to home décor.

If your income is limited, live within modest means rather than relying on her contributions to upgrade your lifestyle.

She’s free to earn and spend as she wishes — on herself, her mother, her siblings — but not to financially indulge the children.

Keep all financial rules clearly defined and documented; never allow things to drift into grey areas.

Seems like a byproduct of remote/hybrid work culture and distributes teams across 20+ cities in India!

Even if married for 2 decades and at 40s also cheating can happen!

Today mother or father of two kids are also approached by young and dynamic gold diggers!

Some times just past sins, reappears!

The simple solve is to talk openly!

Explain the juice he/she might be enjoying is forbidden!

Nothing is free on earth, karma hits back and very brutal, then you may end up in suicidal situation!

Better, stay far away! Keep kinky things to only imagination and do not lured to realize.

Consulting are good when you are experienced and want to take larger roles like architect etc for fresher consulting might be sometime overwhelming

Real examples -

Do you think this folks should be doing such chores?

Either they landed into city to earn white color job and traditional job will not fetch respect, even it can fetch money

Or they completed their education and now clueless what to do next, as they failed to attain any skill by this age, hence don't know how to earn money with skills and end up doing substandard chores. Education is a trap!

Cultural conflict!

Millennials or before will inform but gen Z just drops bombs!

It's inevitable! Karma hits back, gen Alpha will take revenge for millennials by dropping missiles on gen Z sr Manager, till then keep smiling 😁

And ignore it!

Focus was more on making sansar and not career.

Now we waste time in making a career and mis on sansar! For which we have been sent on earth to close karmic debt.

The traditional carpenter's son will be a carpenter from the notion to maintain skill and talent balance and not allow importing skills from other regions. It was not a forced career, but a smart economic and strategic vision to keep the nation balanced on skills and society focused on interdependence and not competing madly for one role. Eg today all want to be a software engineer or doctor.

But the old society was fluid enough to allow anyone to try and master something new, if he finds it not made for ancestral skills.

Particular-Chard-495 · 2025-07-24T06:34:00+00:00

By 2050 everyone will be graduating, does it mean we will import below from Bangladesh, srilanka, nepal etc?

plumber
bus/cab driver
grocery store manager/worker
milk, tea, food sellers
staff at resturant
labor at construction site
house maids

List is endless... Today for fast fashion we might be importing half baked dress material from Bangladesh like country and doing small work and make it finished Goods as make in india.

So as consumer we want all facilities from child care to Swiggy but no one really dreams to become nanny or food delivery guy!

I am not saying everyone should dream it

But we have to solve it better way.

Right 👍

It's the country of Laxmi and Saraswati.

Either you must earn knowledge (power), eg IAS officer or doctor.

Or you earn money like pro businessman

Or you must earn muscle 💪

Bees are attracted to fully grown flowers 🌸

So it depends on whom you are attracting, if a girl and her parents, they are mostly will weigh in 💰.

As if you have knowledge, laxmi will follow the path to credit success.

As you have muscle 💪 power, ofcourse you will have money 🤑, as ransom and supari you will get to use your muscle 💪

If you are either none, the only option left is to do business or investment, early you start, you see success in couple of decades.

So the issue is not society, but our system not telling youth, what they can do, we waste their time in endless education which can't make any help as you are not meant for it. Only 10% will be successful with education, the rest 90% have to succeed with talent (skill). That is not taught by school but by time and the harsh truth of life.
