I’ve been at arc for 2.5 years. Love the people. Culture has shifted a bit since COVID, but they are trying to get it back to what it used to be. They aren’t making people go back to the office so it stems from that. But they put on lots of different group events and a monthly happy hour to try to get people in the office. Some teams aim to go in once a week. Working remotely has been pretty smooth and no issues with communication. We have unlimited vacation days and lots of holidays and random days they give us off.

Qualcomm - Manual testing (wifi)
HPE - Cloud QA

Which role is good for my career and future scope (wifi testing or cloud). And which company is good in terms of culture and work life balance....i heard qualcomm has too much pressure (around 80% of the company) and on the other hand HPE has good cultural values. Please suggest...

I have 6 YOE in. Net+Angular and got an offer from Legato Health Technologies with 20 LPA Fixed, i joined Infor just 11 months ago with 12LPA Fixed and i will get the hike in August. If i resign now i will not get hike and i am a critical resource in the project, i guess Infor might try to retain me by matching offer. What should i do? Should i resign ASAP and not negotiate with Infor . I have all these doubts because Infor is a product based company.
