Being on the bench for more than a month means budgets are cut and/or contracts are killed. Trump effect ...things are on hold. Start looking in the private sector (that's rough also). Good luck 🤞.

I’ve been on for very long - close to a year. But I doubt that will ever happen again. Working here I realized you should always be interviewing and applying else where because you never know when they’ll cut you off

And yeah. You get 100% pay but I was also slightly underpaid but in general was basically getting paid to do no work so couldn’t complain

I would move this to the BAH bowl. Your max time on the bench depends on your accounts admin funds, how easy your position is to replace, clearance, and your efforts to work while on the bench. Your CM could you give you a picture of how much longer you have, but I would assume it is not long.

Does being on the bench mean you keep getting paid your salary? What do you do all day?

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

I don’t want to waste time (colleagues mentioned it doesn’t get much better from here). Do I embrace the suck or look for other opportunities?
