So I just got back from Vacation which I asked people to make sure my projects were still moving along while I'm away.

Finally, I have put down my papers in Infosys, today. While it was fairly good tenure with Infosys (been getting consistently commendable ratings), it was not so good when it came to benefits given by company. Also, the assurance given by managers for onsite opportunities, the moment you indicate you might leave, is a bluff. They will apply visa and this and that without any onsite assignment available. I have read cases people holding H1B for 2 years and yet never got the opportunity to go

What would you do?

Your teammate with the same title and pay as you is at your desk all the time for help. I'm definitely open to helping - but sometimes "help" is basically the whole job - it feels like I'm doing both jobs lol and it almost feels unfair that we both get paid the same or very close (Colorado, so pay transparency). The teammate has been with the company for longer than me.
