I recently just led an experienced hire training school for people who have joined over last six months. Many from Big 4. Many vocally happy with their decision to join and appreciative of a noticeable focus on using pto, inclusion, diversity, and respect. I am sure there are those with a different experience, but i was blown away with the number very happy so far.

Thanks, I appreciate your perspective

I went acn to big 4. Worst decision of my life. Pwc = politics and being non controversial at the expense of giving the client the improvements they need

I am currently working in a small company as embedded system lead software engineer. I am not excellent but I am good at what I am doing.I joined last year with 13.5 lpa(all in hand) with 45% hike, after joining i realised it was a mistake as the culture was toxic. so I started looking for job from January onwards.After multiple trials I have an offer from endurance company pune. But the offer they are offering is less According to me just 25% hike(with variable).
Any suggestions on this

Our team morale is pretty bad and we’ve had a couple of people leave because of it.

Would you feel comfortable telling HR that your service line’s culture sucks and name the individuals who cause it?

Trying to assess if there’s any point in bringing this up. Obviously HR works for the company and an employee sharing their thoughts on the unsupportive, cold leaders could bite me in the long run.
