What’s wrong with your current proj? Soon you’ll realise bad timelines and OT are prevalent in all tech consulting projects

Those who’ve joined this year or recently, mind sharing what’s the first week like? First day collect laptop then go home is it or there’s some get together in office with other mee joiners?

Day 1 is half day.. Collect laptop, setup, some icebreakers and go home
On Day 1, you have a group of new joiners with you.
Day 2-4 is mostly orientation... values.. security etc
Day 5 is either the same as Day 4 or if you have a project, then you will start to onboard the project.

There's a page called New Joiner Checklist, on there states literally everything you need to complete in your 1st month/quarter/year..
Don't need to worry about this at all...

Is the collect laptop time fixed? Cos my project requires me to do some call in the morning so highly suspect may have to collect laptop in the late morning or early afternoon…

Now already ask is go back office but still make training local.. trying to cut cost

This is my rough understanding since it was only gone through once, briefly during start of project.

If I'm not mistaken, CC (Career Counsellor) = People Lead.
They're supposed to be someone partially like your boss (e.g. you can bring up problems / thoughts / feelings / ideas about work) but mainly like a counsellor for work (where you can discuss about your role, future prospects, etc). They're also responsible for discussing with the higher ups about whether you should get a promotion every 6 months. So far, my group have almost never heard from these ghosts except asking a few questions at the start.

Then for tech, the general roles are
- Project Leader : Person in charge of the entire project, almost never has anything to do with you, yet.
- Supervisor : Just below project lead, will chase team leader (and you if they micromanage) to do everything.
- Team Leader : Supposed to be in-charge of a department. Also has little to do with you outside of meetings because your other seniors will likely tell you sotongs what to do.

There are other roles / fancy titles, but depending on how structured the project is, it can be quite meaningless. Considering you call everyone by name and if the project is short-staffed, your seniors will be handling multiple departments, there's almost no point saying "This senior is in-charge of department A" because you end up approaching the same few people for anything and everything.
