work

❌ refused to pua

My first resignation happened in March this year. I left xiamen Company and worked in the company for two years. I witnessed the development of the company from a team of more than ten people when I joined to a team of more than 200 people when I quit. In the past two years, the company has taught me a lot. At the front end of a person’s stack, there are no performance reviews, code Review jitters, and endless meetings. On the downside, it’s exhausting and you have to do it all by yourself. Not only technology, the company also taught me that “work should not be too emotional”, everyone is out to work for money, as long as it is related to interests should stick to their bottom line, do not be tempted by the boss’s big cake. I was naive at the time. After following the company’s salary cut during the epidemic for 20 years, I still worked at home day and night. When I returned to the company, I had to pay my own rent when my salary was cut. The salary was not high plus the salary cut, the rent was borne by myself, then there was a car loan on hand, almost every month’s money immediately disappeared. I will believe that the company is in trouble, everyone has left, I can’t leave the company at the critical moment (huh ~ naive me), I will ride out the difficulties with the company, and when the company gets through it will not mistreat us employees. But when the company got over it (we were doing online education), it started sucking on you.

Finally, I couldn’t stand it, so I left the company in March this year. After leaving to deal with things at home, began to review. I submitted my resume while reviewing at home. The target city was “Beijing”. After interviewing several companies online, I received an offer that I thought was good, and the overall salary level was around 14K. For me at the time, it was more than twice as much. After the time is mature, a single person took the north plane, began to drift north life.

After coming to Beijing, I did not rush to enter the job, but continued to send resumes for interview. Finally, I chose to work in a flower thinking education company and started my second job.

😔 Education industry cuts jobs

As I worked in my first company as an educator, I also aimed at the education industry after I came to Beijing. At that time, companies in the education industry should be good, and the old company is relying on education to survive the epidemic. After joining the new company in April, I was assigned to the communication R&D center to take charge of the company’s communication product research and development. It was the first time I worked in a company with a complete system and development process. I didn’t know what a codeReview was, what a showcase was, and what a release was. It’s like a kid in the gully, seeing skyscrapers all over the place. I like the team atmosphere very much, the younger brothers and sisters in the group are excellent, and the leader is also good (I really appreciate their tolerance to me, especially the leader who bears a lot of external pressure for the team). In fact, the work in a flower is very hard, 10 to 9 in the morning, two hours rest and one hour lunch in the afternoon. Usually come off work at eight o ‘clock more, go home basically at about ten o ‘clock, if encounter development urgent or need to send version, usually is at ten o ‘clock come off work (because ten after taking a taxi to submit an expense account). Work is very tired, but I like it very much, full of energy to work.

“A grain of ashes of The Times, falling on the head of an individual is a mountain.”

The education industry has been hit hard by the implementation of the double reduction policy. I knew I was going to get laid off. After being called to an office, directly sign a good compensation agreement separation agreement, that has not turned the compensation is only 0.5, but something is better than nothing. In the morning I was still writing code, and in the afternoon I handed in the completion card and returned the equipment and left. It was not until we finished the dimission procedures and the leader came back from the meeting that he knew that all the students who had joined this year in our group had been laid off. I saw helplessness and guilt in his eyes. Before leaving, we had a farewell party and said goodbye to the leader and remaining colleagues one by one before starting to look for a third job.

🏃 Run fast

After leaving, I did not rush to find a job, but gave myself a month’s vacation. That time node is not very good, I did not review, plus outside the education industry is full of layoffs, the overall market is not very good. So after enough rest, began a systematic review. Come to Beijing before review once, but it is rough pass knowledge point, and did not complete review. This time, I listed some knowledge points to review, interview questions often asked in the interview, began to look at some source code, review and take notes at the same time, leaving this review of 2021 front-end interview, which is also the first article released this year. After reviewing for a month, I began to send resumes for interviews in September. It kept the rating rate of almost two a day for about two weeks and met about ten companies. Small companies can pass almost all of them, while larger companies can pass both of them, but often get stuck in three or the algorithm. I have no basic knowledge of algorithms, so WHEN I asked the algorithm questions in the interview, I would panic. I remember one of them asked the sum of the NTH Fibonacci sequence, but they didn’t answer for a long time. Later, after meeting some Chinese factories, I was completely crushed by the interviewer. After being hit, he chose to escape and began to live in a muddle, addicted to games and movies every day.

Until the hand savings ran out, began to hurry to find a job with a sense of crisis, that would have come to October. It was a situation where the small companies didn’t want to go, and the bigger companies were either too far away or didn’t want to go. After a screening, I chose to join a medical company with a series C financing of 200 million yuan. This company mainly writes the backstage management system for the hospital, there is no front end, most of the backstage are full stack. After taking the job in the middle of October, I signed a lot of agreements in the morning and began to contact the business code of the company in the afternoon. I read the company’s large group of chat messages, and suddenly found that the company now has an economic crisis, and the wages of two months ago have not been paid. When I realized something was wrong, I directly went to HR and said THAT I was not suitable. Hr was very puzzled. The entry process went well, but why was it inappropriate? So let my leader and I talk, the leader he is also a straightforward person, directly said that the company’s current capital flow is not open, did default wages, but there will be a turnaround in the near future, has found a new investor (ghost knows oh). I didn’t say anything. I didn’t even have to go. I just ran. So when you’re looking for a job, if something’s wrong with the company, run.

🐟 status quo

After leaving the medical company, I applied for some time and joined my current company at the end of October. No previous financial problems, hands are also very generous, there are not too many routines. The company mainly focuses on visualization, such as smart park, smart city and 3D visualization, which have nothing to do with me. I’m in 2D visualization, flow chart in GoJs. In fact, the company is fine. One of the things that annoys me is the need for on-site development. Recently, I was sent to the site development of a letter bank (it is outsourcing). Development at the customer site is not as comfortable as the company headquarters, there is no Internet (the worst part), and you have to use junk computers from banks. But overall good, no development tasks, a lot of time to learn (touch) (fish), and not much overtime, I ran around 5:30.

I am not satisfied with the current situation. I do not like the team atmosphere and the technical atmosphere of the company. There is no room for improvement. But had to bow to life yield to 💰 or to continue to do. However, I can use the extra time from this job to settle down to brush questions, write technical documents, learn new technologies, do open source projects and so on. You can make money and have time to do your own thing.

Personal technology

In terms of technology, except that REACT was used for a period of time, the rest of the tech stack still worked the same as before, but this year I gained more things other than the tech stack. When I was developing management projects in a small company by myself, I thought I was pretty good, both in technology and project management. Until I came to Beijing, I found myself a clown. Here I am very grateful to have the work experience in a flower, that experience let me open my vision, let me feel that I am still very small, they are still weak, need to keep learning and progress.

Life feelings

Life is also hit a wall everywhere, when the Chinese New Year’s father hospitalized for surgery, I had to go home in advance (home on the first day scrap a tire and hub 🥲). When I resigned in March, I flew home overnight before the original departure date. My father was injured in an accident and was transferred from the county hospital to Wuhan People’s Hospital. It was not until August or September that I slowly recovered. My girlfriend was seriously ill in the summer. I thought it would be calmer at the end of the year. But my sister was hospitalized recently and just finished the operation the day before yesterday. The family relationship is also very tense, the parents keep quarreling even to the point of separation.

But it didn’t overwhelm me, because I met the woman of my life and came to Beijing to be with her in the first place. Since I came to Beijing, she has been taking care of me, helping me to find a job, accompanying me to find an apartment, and appearing by my side when I was in trouble. And I am also in order to meet her ideal of doing a salty fish in constant efforts.

Our remarks, understand the students can leave a message in the comment area 😏

I blame all the bad things this year on my birth year (although I don’t believe this), I believe everything will pass, all the current problems will be resolved, I am full of hope for my future life.

To summarize
