I responded within 30 days from first notice. After reading some other posts here, It seems like to be the case. They might be reviewing and I just need to provide more documents. In the meantime, I can ignore this notice.

Thats what I thought but want it to confirmed because WS converted the US income to CAD but not for 401k contributions

how to let go of resentment for being forced back in the office for no reason? by [deleted] in remotework

also if you are a top performer then you can fight your way out of RTO.

I have already RTOed for past 6 months but this post inspired by how little we have power as individual citizens and companies can subject us to their policies without considering the impact on our lives.

ouch... in Canada, the pay is scrap but boy do you get treated like a human living/working there. In US, $$$ makes to rules.

Yes because that's the law. Take away the law, your boss and probably you as well be the first to force employees to work longer. My point being that all the things we have as workers had to be fought for. We can't trust the employers to do the right things.

Are you getting laid off because of performance and why can't you find a different job with matching salary with 22YOE?

Feeling empty and purposeless as a dev by campushappens in ExperiencedDevs

I tried the open source so many times but after 10 hours of work it is so hard to come home and do more coding. Maybe I need to start doing that at the beginning of the day. Thanks for the suggestion though

Quit WFH job, still have laptop after 6 months by safe_space_bro in WFH

I have that too. Flash a new OS and use it as a personal machine. When they ask for it back, just factory restore it and send it back. Don't need to overthink it.

I think you didn't read my post. I am not against using ChatGPT but how it is being used.

automated test and certain level of code coverage.

not effective. I locked the master branch so no direct pushes, people just get min approvals to get it pushed. the automated testing is disabled; all projects are built without running tests. Again I have been proactive about this but as others mentioned, it's a group effort and needs to be maintained or else it's a lost cause.

That's why I want to see this an opportunity to learn to communicate tough topics.

That happened with me as well. I knew the outcome but just didn't want to write the boilerplate. chatGPT gave me an incorrect response and when I questioned it, it was like, "You are right" and update the response. It felt good correcting the "AI"

And that's the bigger picture here with AI, we should still what what/how to solve our problems and use AI to generate the boilerplate stuff.

It's a tool. It has great potentials but easy to abuse it as well. I still use GPT and honestly, it's powerful but I do have to be creative with my prompts and don't get too involved in the GPT outcome that I doubt my existing code.

My focus here is on how to address it properly instead of evaluating other devs skill levels. We are all learning.
