Doesn’t make sense why I work on a client project with other consultants and my firm is the one who has to use the client’s laptop/email and the other consultants use their firm devices. Who else?

Depends on your agreement with the client...

Depends what you’re working on and what your firm’s infosec infrastructure and policies look like. I’ve only encountered this at a few hedge funds.

It’s how your contract was negotiated.

Clients also do due diligence in vendors' security controls. Yours failed some of the reqs and got flagged as higher risk.

Or, your firm has access to more sensitive data.

I spend 2 hours a day being productive and the rest of the time watching Netflix/Hulu/etc or napping/eating.

Have been doing this for 3 months now and I continue to get positive feedback from everyone. I can do this for another year (duration of my project) and no one will say anything.

Had to get that off my chest. Life is so nice/on easy mode these days 😬

Even to this day, I feel like I have crippling anxiety and imposter syndrome when speaking. It’s easier in project read outs and dedicated client meetings, but much worse when I’m going in cold or without a set agenda. Has anyone worked with / used a coach, tools, etc. to help with this? Recommendations?

Transitioning from full time agency life to be a freelancer and/or part timer. How have folks negotiated their rate, hourly vs day? For reference, I’m in the Account/Project Management space and have 8+ years of experience. And I’d ideally like the rate to result in more $$ than what I was making when salaried. Thanks!

Hi All, I’m the bowl owner here, just wanted to mention that we are 50 members strong, hence I though we can do an anonymous introduction to mention where do you work, and where do you live… and what do you expect out of living in Pune city in terms of your career.

About myself, am working as a project manager in Citi, though I have moved to Mumbai from Pune during COVID to find a better opportunity here, I wish to move back to Pune in near future for better WLB and opportunities.

What should we do, if we get a project with backend technology but have experience in front end

I was on bench for almost 4months after clearing the training. I was reskilling myself in MERN during that time. Now I have been put in a project where all I do is solve issues of the client's customers. This is not something which I prefer to do. I raised the issue but to no avail.
What should I do to pave my career path? I don't even have experience in relevant field for switch.
Pls help this junior.

Do you mention who your clients are in interviews? I can never tell what the right way to do this is. I usually say something along the lines of “a large client in X industry/vertical” because dropping the client name feels tacky? But at the same time, my main client is niche and knowing who is kind of vital to understand the work.
