I’ve been at GS for about a good while now and I am now the only software engineer in my team in my location. I don’t really see the point in going to the office 5 days a week if it’s just me hopping on zoom for calls.

I don’t have a flexible work arrangement but I want to explore the option of 2 days wfh each week. What do you think, will I get flagged by HCM?

Hello all,

I am a backend engineer with 1 year of post-grad work experience. When including interships and short work programs, I have approximately 2.5 years. My tech stack is Java (Spring Boot), Python, Kafka, Redis, Docker.

Currently looking to job hop as the dynamics of my current team is terrible and moving internally puts me at a very high risk of layoffs.

Thinks I'm looking for:

1. Stability: low to almost non existent layoff cycles.
2. Competitive Pay
3. Teammates in London (I've had my fairshare of going of being the only dev in my location in London)
4. Good learning opportunities

For context I have a solid profile and have gotten callbacks or recruiters on Linkedin, but I would like to narrow down my options to adequately prepare and transition. Also open to referrals as well!
