I was offered a sr director role. No case - all behavioral. They're very operational and want people willing to roll up their sleeves so you need to be able to talk through ops projects at a detailed level. Not sure what firm you're coming from but they dont value pure strat or top line growth experience, focus is on cost takeout.

Thanks S&1.

Also, what made you pass the offer?

So is the fixed amount my gross salary without any other deduction except TDS, or will the organisation contribution to PF be also deducted from the fixed component? Also, will claimable components like LTA, mobile bill reimbursement etc. be in addition to this fixed component or will they be included in it?
