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

Both of your options are not great.
Since you already work at Epam, you must be aware of what's going inside the company. They're doing lay offs in small phases, it's like 50/50 over there. Many folks are looking out from Epam due to this reason.
ZS on the other hand, you'll have to worry about WLB more than layoffs. Earlier ZS used to provide great benefits with poor work life balance but now, they've cut down on those benefits but work life balance remains the same (bad to worse for some folks).

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:
1. Can my company withdraw or cancel my clearance if I leave right after I secure a TS?
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!

HiAll, My lead resigned and my manager informed me just 2 weeks before her lwd on this and asked me to take up all their responsibilities. I don't think this is not a professional way to handle things and KTs are not properly given. I'm really worried if this will affect my career. I'm not really interested to work in this project. I have tried many ways to release me from this project . But manager is really amendment to release as there is no senior member in the team.
