EPAM systems VS ZS ASSOCIATES

Epam system CTC : 14LPA with no variable will increase to 15.5 in the next hike cycle. - permanent WFH , Currently working here with high dependency from my side(handled 3 projects), good WLB, chill timings.

ZS associates: 18(FIXED) + 84k(food + wifi) + 3L (bonus) - hybrid model Pune or bnglr.

I need to know more about ZS:
WLB, Job security,Increments,Technical growth. The role offered from zs is not in the analytics side its operations side-senior test engineer

WLB at ZS is very famous and you won’t have any problems finding out. Job security too is very good because of WLB; they make you “Bandhua Majdoor” and won’t fire you but you only will start looking out because of frustrations.

likefunny

Join office by 930 or 10 and keep doing majduri till 11 on daily basis. Sometime that goes till 1 AM and rarely goes till 3 AM. Manager may call you on Saturday as well most likely 1 week per month sometimes 2 per month. Matlab totally Kutto wali halat hoti h, jise man kiya bich bazar m g@@d mar diya.

EPAM WLB is way better than ZS, in everything else ZS better

So if I want to give up WLB/peace of mind then I need to go ZS right. Another factor is remote work I need to relocate to zs from my hometown

EPAM is still hiring and people willing to join?

Everyone has a job bro epam fired around 200 people that too new hires. The reason as far as I know is they hired people in place of Ukraine people who are uncertain about their position due to war but Ukrainian people started working from other locations so they did not get any option to keep the newly hired people.

The newly hired people were also not instantly fired. They were asked to serve notice and if they find any project in notice then they can take paper back and start working in the project or they can take 3 months in-hand salary and leave the company instantly.

At what point do you draw the line on WLB? Working insane hours on a long/term project with what feels like no end in sight. It’s not sustainable but clearly expected. Could you get fired for drawing lines in the sand and saying (example) “come 8:30 every night I’m logging off”. That’s a 65 hour work week as-is but I currently am up until midnight working consistently. For context I’ve been rated as a strong performer consistently and am not new to the job so it’s not a lack of understanding.

Team just applied for a TS Clearance (defense agency). Trying to assess if it makes sense to wait till the clearance comes through (6 months to a year?) before I job hop. I'm hoping to get some clarity on the following:

2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!
