At 11.5 yrs CTS was paying me 14.5. I got 1 promotion in my 6.5 years in CTS.I Found a job & informed my lead.
He promised raise bla bla.
I trusted him. 5 months passed. Nothing happened. I started searching job. Got few.
HCL offered me 21
KGS 23.5
IBM 27
Deloitte USI 23.5
After I resigned managers were
ready to send me onshore,
give me promotion,
increase my salary.
I know I am still earning very less but I am happy that I got one escape-pass.

Congratulations. Which one you're gonna join ?

KGS or Deloitte USI.
Because if I consider the hike and learning curve KGS and Deloitte USI will be better is what my friend-philosopher-guides suggested.
They only motivated me to come out of this place. One works in Walmart India and other two in Oracle. I owe a lot to them. 😊 I am lucky that I have real good friends.
Another thing is I started my journey keeping big 4 in mind. So I will regret if I loose the chance.

Hey Fishes,
Been working at D India as a Manager (Not USI) for past few months.
Ask me anything as there are very few reviews available online.
To clear few misconceptions
1. Global projects are available here
2. They've started mentioning Bonus, Gratuity amount etc in offer letter
3. Work life balance depends on Project and managers you work with
4. Inside opportunities if you're the creamy layer
5. PF amount in offer letter is the total deduction and not just company's contri

Has anyone left healthcare and is now really happy? I’m an MSN, RN with 12 years hospital experience. I’m burned out and tired of making crap pay.
