Interview vibe was off. And now I regret working here
May 2 JO ako before ako nagstart sa company ko ngayon.
One was for 40k basic, L2 Client Support. Sa L2 Client Support, onsite yung interview ko and I felt really welcomed by the Manager and TL. Nakasundo ko kaagad sila at...ewan. Something just feels right nung nandoon ako at nameet ko yung iba pang L2. I saw myself working there. The managers were hardworking women who made sure I'm comfortable, we even drank coffee together while we got to know each other. Lol.
The other was 45k basic, L1 ITSD. Malaki din allowance so 50k total package. Zoom interview. Transactional lang. Straight to the point. No personal questions to get to know me.
I chose the latter cos I needed a higher salary. Marami akong bayarin, eh. Naisip ko kaya ko naman siguro tiisin kahit male-dominated workplace ito.
And now I regret it. Hirap humingi ng tulong sa mga kawork na masusungit. Hirap humingi ng pabor. Uso ang biglaang tanggalan at mahirap mag leave. I feel like I'm walking on eggshells kasi yung Manager ko perfectionist at ilang beses na akong pinahiya, all because I make mistakes as a newbie.
I have no friends here. For some reason, yung mga kawork ko parang mga walang kaluluwa. They don't talk to each other. They don't care. Parang mga robot at sanay na sila doon. The office is too dim and depressing. I feel alone and stupid.
Kaya sa mga naghahanap ng work diyan, the vibe during interview matters. Kung may pagpipilian kayo, trust your gut. If the vibe is off, wag na kayong tumuloy.
