It was probably said in confidence. We shouldn’t trust you going forward. I’ll tell the next person on the project not to trust you too, hopefully they don’t tell you I said that

OP Why the M doesn’t want you to trust the SM? Were you on the PMO team? I feel your story needs more context before someone else can weigh in.

SM rolled off the PMO? If M and others convey something sketchy about SM I would start documenting all interactions with the SM. Especially if SM is the type to be careful of email or IM content but says shady things.

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?

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
