Why is this ok for guys, but not women? Especially if it's not the actual same clothes. I'd love to have a work "uniform". https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2014/11/17/a-man-wore-the-same-suit-on-tv-almost-every-day-for-a-year-nobody-cared/

One time a partner told me a story that he worked with a guy who used to be in the military and he looked sharp everyday for the 4 years that he worked there. By the time he left the firm, he told the partner that he wore the same suit for the entire 4 years

Hey Fishes, I was supposed to recieve a formal contract from HR on Friday. Hr had confirmed that on Thursday the contract has been drafted, earlier got a mail from the partner as well saying that the offer is secure and should not worry. I had another offer which will be revoked by evening today if I don't reply. should I worry about contract from EY? I am not sure if should mail the partner to inform about it. (he did say to let him know if I don't receive the contract within 24h on thursday).

Hi Nagarrians, it's been 45 days now since I joined Nagarro I was assigned a team at the time of joining but since then I am waiting for interview to take place. Is this normal procedure? Although from day 2 my project manager asked me to fill the timesheet corresponding to one project which is no billable. I am having concerns now as I don't know if this is normal ?

A reminder to those who are stressed about your billable hours that your value is more than your pure productivity. To those stressed about relationships, relationships are hard even for non-lawyers, but you are absolutely worthy of love. It is an important reminder for all of us that you are worthy and you are valuable. Keep fighting!

My firm has a collections budget (80% of your billable rate x 1850 hours) and an hourly budget that must be met in order to be eligible for a bonus. The firm cares very little about originations and will reward someone for making their collections over someone who brings in new work. I missed my collection budget due to some odd timing with a client, but originated more than all my peers so no bonus for me. I’ve been at this same mid level firm for 9 years and it’s all I know. Is this normal??

Hello fishes, I joined Nagarro on 24th of August. But still no project is assigned yet. Basically I am on bench. Now I am about to get an offer from ServiceNow. I really wanna join ServiceNow as it's a big product based organisation and the competition is really high compared to Nagarro. ServiceNow is giving me a joining date of 1st October. As I am still on bench, will I get released by Nagarro soon ? Because no project is allocated to me.
