Thank you, you as well! I can't believe it's finally here. I love summertime with the kiddos, but after a while, they get stir crazy and need the structure of school and time with their friends!

I'll be honest, I always like this time of year because I don't have to go back to school. But for those who enjoy it, more power to them! I don't have kids myself, but I got a kick out of my neighbor doing like a whole photoshoot on the sidewalk of her daughter in her back to school clothes.

What is work-life balance like in big tech legal? I’m currently in house at a large multinational; I like my job and I get paid fine, with a very good WLB (40-45 hrs). I want to look into FAANG-type opportunities as they would mean a huge pay bump, and I think I’m qualified, but I have no idea about the hours, and I don’t want to substantially give up WLB, as that’s why I left BigLaw. I don’t want to be miserable again. I know Amazon is poorly reputed for lawyer WLB… what about other places?

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
