About to start traveling again after a year and a half local. Based in Chicago, only have Gold on American but MVP Gold 75k with Alaska. Can take UA, AA, or SW to new client in PHL (cont'd)

Hello Folks,
Can you pls advise on which company to go for.
R-Systems : They are providing WFH + clarity on the project and team for which I’ll be working upon.
CTS : No clarity as of now, only thing I am aware is that I’m a part of full stack community.
HCL : Some clarity on the project but less package than other two.
R-Systems and CTS are giving same CTC.
YOE ~8
Skill set : . Net full stack + Angular + Azure

Thanks

I am in US and traveling to canada for a week with my family(have babies). Do I need to buy medical or/and driver’s insurance? TIA

Hi All,

Is it okay to join Mastercard Project from third party payroll?

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

One week into a tough project and it’s taking a toll on my mental and physical health. Haven’t slept well for the past 2 nights (only 3-4 hours sleep).. what should I do

Do people proactively begin finding work when they know they may be low on work soon? Or do they just wait until they actually don’t have enough work to fill their days? Have a larger project that is winding down and my main case is slowing down a bit so I anticipate potentially needing to find more work soon, and I was unsure if that was something I needed to worry about.

Hi guys, I got an offer from x and i discussed that with my current. At 1st current said they can only give 30% increment. I said I can't stay with this cause i got 70% and expect at least 50%(as the 70% included VP and the current org don't have vp, they have bonus). Then they said they can do max 45%. I really wanted to stay here so I said okay to current. Then now hr called me and said they are matching the offer(no vp). What should I make out of it? What made them change their mind?

After that I got call from hr and said my interview is scheduled on next week and very next day one person called me and asked few technical questions .she said she's calling from infosys and this is technical screening round .

Hi Is our job in danger ? After the quarter results declaration? Has wipro undergone losses? They have kept contract to hire cases on hold as well.why so?

Advice & resources? My spouse and I are starting to make good money (ages 28 & 31, $105k & $70k) with $10k in savings (we were hit hard financially this year) and 2 car payments.

We live in a cheap apartment ($1.3k) that is sh*tty. Don’t quite have a down payment (especially not in ATX). Is it dumb to rent a house for a year at $3k/month while we save up again?

We both didn’t come from $ and are figuring out how to not be idiots 🙃 tbh we would prefer to rent forever but that feels dumb???

New to the firm and consulting. Have an introductory call with my ppmd later, any recommendations for what I should ask him about?

My team just sold a next phase of work to the client (small team, so I’m main person to deliver the work), but I just got a written offer for a dream job. I’m definitely going to accept the offer, but feeling guilty since this phase was just sold (the client knows me and has said positive things about my work). I guess just looking for reassurance, since I’m dreading letting them know.

Is there any advice for networking into projects when you don’t know many people at the firm yet? I always to help on BD work when I’m on the bench, but it never turns into any billable work. Every time I have talked to a partner/senior manager I was told I don’t have the skill set they’re looking for, but I don’t know how to build up from there. Feeing very lost but I want to improve my approach.
