Hello Guys,

SAP SD 4 YOE, INFY
CCTC -7.34
EY IN offered - 13.61(2lakh VP)

I have accepted EY IN Offer.
Now I am getting calls from EY GDS for interviews.

I am not sure if u should attend the interview or not at GDS.
When I shared this scenario with my EY IN HR, she said please don't attend it may create conflict and you may also get blacklisted.

EY GDS HR is like, you can attend the interview, there's no problem at all. We don't have such a policy. Please suggest what decision I should make.

Genuinely like my job but been stuck in such a negative rut lately. Any helpful tips for how to see the job positively again?

Building an invoicing template for a construction comp but won’t be industry specific. I’ll be charging 5 hours at US$80/hr. Anyone want a copy of it for US$40 worth of crypto?

Context:
I spent 2 days last week and tmr fumbling over invoicing activity with the owner using a poorly designed invoicing spreadsheet. Last minute changes to already approved templates impacting >30 invoices is ridiculous. There will be a control sheet, an invoice generating sheet and a summary sheet. Q’s or comments?

I have an interview for an in house position (only attorney) at a small non-profit focused on conservation easements. I am a transactional associate at a mid sized law firm. The prospect of freedom from the billable hour and contributing to meaningful work are the draws. The cons are that while the salary at the non-profit would only be slightly less than what I am making now, pay increases and opportunities for advancement will be much less than where I am now. Thoughts on making the shift?
