Trending @Capgemini; Working alone in Airoli.

Hi All,

I am on a billing project and now I go to the office and just work and come back on a routine basis. I neither know anyone nor others know me.

I just want to know how many of u are in the same routine. And how do u feel about it.

Same situation with me. I'm supposed to be in Airoli, but I started visiting the Vikhroli office after 5 years of blissful WFH because the BTO team is being really mean about this whole thing. But yeah, i literally know ZERO people. A few of my team mates are in Airoli, but that is 2-2.5 hours one way from my residence and I suffer from Tourettes syndrome which makes it a living hell to travel.

Regarding how I feel, I feel okay, since I am not too much into being around people all the time. I'm worried about upskilling though since I am earning like 1/3rd the amount of most people in CG at the senior Consultant level.

I'm in pune and in the same situation but I am okay with it now. I even prefer having lunch alone.Getting used to it and I feel comfortable being in my own space. I use my time to upskill myself and watch something on phone.

Try to talk this to your manager or just message it on teams that itโ€™s hardly any use of going to office with no team members. And request to wfhโ€ฆ if you got a reply then fine, if not then try to avoid going office(if u want)

Exactly the same situation. I just focus on doing my work and upskill myself in those 8 hours rather than wasting time chit chatting in groups.

I am probably gonna be in the same boat ๐Ÿซ  I just joined Capgemini and will be working from Airoli office. My team members are remotely based and I am alone from Airoli office. It feels too lonely to work at office without at least some people u know and can chat with. Though I do appreciate the solitude now and then, human connections are as important otherwise I will feel like a ghost coming all alone and sitting by myself ๐Ÿ˜“
