Survival in a new company

I recently joined Hashedin by Deloitte in august. Before that I was in Infosys for 1.8 years , mostly was on bench and very few months on project(2-3), where I did basic work on angular in a legacy project , not learned anything there because of scattered code base and that was worse as of my first project. I did some preparation , learned concepts of angular and JavaScript theoretically mostly.

Then I switched to Hashedin as SDE 2, now I don’t have much Handson experience, I feel scared and feel anxiety , how I will be able to perform and meet expectation of this position. Although I am trying to learn more concepts of angular but still not feeling confident. As an Sde 2 they expect me to work on complex task independently, although I have 1.8 years of experience.

I feel worthless and depressed everyday thinking about it. My head always remain flooded with self doubts and anxiety. Feel sometimes to quit but I have bills to pay.

How can I survive through this, I am ready to learn and do put efforts. But how will be able to cope up with tasks they threw once I’ll be in a project. Can anyone give some tips and advice how should I tackle these situations and get better. I’m tired of feeling low and mentally sick all the time.

Having anxiety in a new field or job is alright. It's common, but don't let it hinder you. If you don't have access to any project in Deloitte right now, then you can try to work on your personal projects to have hands-on experience. When you get deployed in a project, at that time you can learn about the components of the project, and then select a small part to build your understanding from there on.

It’s good to feel overwhelmed. It means you are learning things you knew nothing about earlier.

Hunker down and pick up skills. Just one year from now, you’ll think why were you even worried in the first place 😂

Thank you for your positive response and motivating guidance. Just want to know how to deal with work and expectation, as they will expect me to work on complex things independently and deliver on time
