I don’t work there but have many friends who do. What line of service? I have friends in Tax and Advisory and the lead partners are awesome, I know them well. Can’t speak for Audit. Prime location and beautiful office also. PwC is cool also in Houston though 😉 if looking at Houston I’d stick to those two

Love JL. 🤗

Two years ago they were woefully short staffed. Big carveout in which they had to call in probably 40 folks from Federal during our offseason. I heard rumors of them needing people this winter but not sure if it came to fruition. Take that for what it’s worth.

Oh wow. Thanks, I saw a couple of job postings so was wondering about their staffing.

Hello fishes, I have offers from two different companies and both are offering same amount of CTC - 18LPA (YOE: 3.2) . Company names are Pristyn Care and Xiaomi technology india pvt. ltd .

Now for Pristyn Care I won't have to move out of Gurgaon (I'm from north India). Xiaomi is calling me to Bangalore. Rest all the benefits seem similar.

In terms of learning and job security and all the aspects considered, which company should I join?

Please help me decide. Thank you!
