I work at Alpha. It is a fast growing consulting firm within AWM industry, and recently introduced insurance practice and AI in Europe. As for the US, they get really juicy projects with ridiculously high rates.

Thank you! Would you characterize Alpha’s work as more strategic in nature or large scale implementations or both? I am at Accenture where most projects seem to be implementations for context.

The team in Canada does a lot implementation work and usually travels to US for the projects. The team in the US handle wide variety of work related to tech implementation, product strategy, due diligence etc. Example, I’m in EU office and did product strategy and now doing a large implementation project.

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’ve put myself up for L4 promo this cycle. Assuming I get it, what would be the best next steps to optimize for long-term growth/TC?

My understanding is that L5->L6 is extremely painful at
Google. It may be easier to leave for a handful of years and gain managerial experience before returning.

L4->L5 is less challenging; however, I’m under the impression I can do this quicker at another company (if I leave after being freshly promo’d) AND get higher TC.

TC: 270K
