Does anyone in here participate in a 529 for their kids? Is it true that you can deduct contributions from your state tax? If so? Is it 1:1? Trying to decide how much to contribute for maximum tax benefits. TIA!

Any junior strategy positions open in NY?

Hey, can someone guide me on the average hike in Tredence and how much CTC can a L3 (Associate Manager) expect in Tredence?

My utilization is 90% but all of my clients are small jobs. Does that look worse than someone who works on the larger, higher revenue generating jobs with all else equal (utilization/performance)?

Hello,

The immigration firm(for the new company I’ve accepted offer from) reached out with a link to put in my details for H1 transfer. They specifically mentioned that they won’t support dependent immigration.
My wife is on H4, how do I go about her immigration requirements? Does she need a transfer or amendment on current visa once I get my visa transferred?
Thank you

What would have been a better offer?

I know I will get hated by saying this. Do you think gay pride events are portraying a bad image about our community to public? (Drugs, sexual, inappropriate clothes, and sometimes like strip clubs- some parts). I know it is right to present us but I just feel it is not the right way to show who we are. I wish the pride where everybody can connect in a more friendly way (outdoor game- team work, dance, drink something not too sexual.) there are some good parts of pride tho. Any opinions?

I joined pwc last month, and absolutely hating it here. Each weekend has been working, 12-15 hours work day is minimum expectation. And there's extreme hierarchy, where even after you spend 24 hours working on something, the director decides he wants something completely different and you delete and restart. (Note that you request them to review and give their pov earlier on, but they never take the time out)

Morning! Being laid off sux, I been down this road 5x in my career it never bets easier.

Hi ,

I have a offer with TCS 18 LPA and capgemini with 16.5 LPA. I am working in SAP ABAP. Is capgemini will consider renegotiation as well as how is CG interms of Work life balance, job security and WFH policies .

My company covers in depth results each week, including meetings set/attended, wins, revenue, retention etc. I feel as if evaluating in such depth is detrimental to the psyche, as you never get to “ride the high.” In addition, some weeks are simply slower than others, and it’s not always representative of what the results at the end of the period or quarter will be. Is this not a big deal, and I’m I placing too much importance on it? Or is it beneficial to review results less frequently?

Hi All, I've been offered a 10.7LPA by TCS. What will be my take home monthly and the take home on a variable payout month? Approx value is good.

TIA
