Sad to say, logging off. Other than that, days when there is genuine connection with colleagues and enough work to do that you have a sense of accomplishment.
It was quick. Unfortunately, the background checks were extensive and took much longer leaving you on tenterhooks the whole time. Also the onboarding was unprofessional with various mistakes made by the organisation.
The window dressing is constant, effusive positivity and celebration of achievement. Some people are idealistic enough to feel they are genuinely making a difference -- most odd for an ultra-capitalist financial services company.
The leadership team sugar coats things and offers constant hyperbolic praise for achievements, but their words are at odds with the nature of the underlying organisation, which is sclerotic, siloed and defensive. It's all so much rhetoric and window dressing. It's a business looking out for itself.
My team is a feelings-only environment where you walk on eggshells around everybody. Each person thinks that they are the most emotionally sensitive and hence superior team person, and looks down on colleagues who are more interested in their actual work and making profit for the business.
