Always Lenovo, but they've been out. HP is ok. Avoid the Dell machines. Just my experience.

Windows: surface / Mac OS: MacBook Air with M1 until the next generation comes out

Does Accenture gives Mac?

My only options were Lenovo HP and Dell

Lenovo is best bet but I agree and think they are out. I just got a dell from them (ACN) with a bad keyboard for my first week. Already sending it back and hoping I get a Lenovo

Do you think Fishbowl posts are truly anonymous? It seems likely to me that Fishbowl/GlassDoor is selling companies data with the privacy stripped away so they can see what their employees are posting. Do you think they sell the data but it’s still anonymous?

I am having offers from

EY India
Synechron
Altimetrik Corp.

The offer from EY India is very less and my joining is on 16th. I do not think negotiation will work at this point. Synechron & Altimetrik is offering far better pay than EY India. The difference is Close to 5L. Can anybody through some light here. I have a YOE of 4Y and tech stack- Java/MS/ React. EY is offering 10.5 fixed.

PS: For some reason, my heart is still says EY i don't know why :(

I am on notice period with Tata Consultancy with 2 months remaining with an offer in hand where the joining date is just after notice period ends. Now, I got early release from current company and thus, I saved 2 months. But I want to use these 2 months for travelling, upskilling and looking for better offers instead of contacting the new company for early joining. So, if I join the new company after 2 months will this be considered as a 'gap' in my profile in the future and will it be harmful?
