Challenges are the part of life. It enhances our learning experience and help us in getting out of comfort zone. One of the many challenges that I have faced in my life was when I was working in a telecom company. Launching of JIO and shutting down of RCom was one the major reasons leading to economic imbalance during those years which force the company for doing some organisational restructuring leading to lots of layoffs and position movements. This led to instability in various teams and people started looking for alternative job roles. Soon our team was reduced to a work force of just 25% of what it was a year ago with management changing in every three to four months. Being new to the team, it was very difficult for me to adjust to this volatile working environment with rising pressure from customer. Also, since new management did not had much knowledge of project, I had to work differently with both management and customers. But as correctly sad, bad time is best learning period. What all challenges I faced during this time period, was a great learning experience. The time that I spend with all my managers and team lead helped me to think differently in practical scenario. From working in operations, I moved to integration and deployment and then to development within this time period. Also, I got Certificate of Recognition from the customer for the work that I did. Had I not faced these challenges, I would not have learned so much at such a small span of time.
