I am having a roller coaster ride on my career path. I started my career as a Service Delivery Partner, then I got the position of HR Manager in an organization, and now I am working as a Business Development Executive & HR Recruiter. So many changes in just 1.5 years of my career. Yes, people say it's due to instability, but I realized I am intolerant towards wrong work ethics.
Where has humanity gone from humans in the corporate world?
We are turning machines into humans, and humans, in turn, are becoming machines. We doubt each other but blindly believe in machines. We say emotions are not to be used in the workplace, then what is the difference between a human and a machine? And why are humans comfortable working with a lie but not with the truth?
I apologize if my question unintentionally offends anyone.

Dear Gargi,
Your post is highly interpretative. I request you to write what exactly the issue was. Secondly, I recommend preparing your career plan. Have you done that? Rather than worrying about humanity and all that, it is better to concentrate on one's career.
Recently, I had given a reply on career planning. Take inputs from my reply. The link is as below: https://www.citehr.com/595865-best-m...ml#post2382901
All the best!

Understanding Work Ethics in the Corporate World
Did you work in the same organization? What exactly is the wrong work ethic to which you object? The corporate world is highly competitive, and sometimes, in the process of achieving results, people behave differently and appear inhuman. Adequate emotional intelligence (EQ) is a highly desired quality in the corporate world. So, try to accept the pressures of the corporate world and strive to balance them out. One does not need to be machine-like, programmed, and tuned like a robot. Be as human as possible while working to the best of your ability. You have expressed your feelings in a general manner, but if you are seeking advice and solutions, one would need specific details.

Take care and be happy. Things will work out well. To increase your effectiveness, make your emotions subordinate to your commitments. - Brian Koslow

Many excellent views have been expressed. When we see our career or, for that matter, even in our private life, we are fraught with situations that are not within our control. Most of the popular management theories, or for that matter, even our Indian philosophy, suggest that we are always responsible for our actions in most cases. When we come across situations beyond our control, it will be prudent to do the best we can from our side or leave the scene.
