Hello fishes
I want to come to Amdocs from EPAM with few months of experience, currently SDE2. I do have some questions, though.
1. How does EPAM compare to Amdocs? Regarding the job satisfaction, projects, Permanent WFH, etc.
2. This company is, in my opinion, one of the best for growth and high-quality projects. Can someone vouch to this?
3. I would appreciate it if you could recommend SDE2, SDE3, or both.
4. What should a reasonable CTC expectation be?
I am eager for your help and support. 🥰
Ask if you can work out of new York office. It's worth asking
I joined during the pandemic and live in Harlem. Best I can do is take the subway town the wtc and the path. It’s perhaps the single largest reason I’m looking for another position. It was fine when we went in two days a week but I’m hearing rumors we’ll be going in five days starting next year. I’m trying to see if I can’t sit in another office but I got a lot of resistance. I don’t fully get the strict requirement to be in person when we do 99% of our meetings on zoom.
I like getting out of my tiny nyc apartment to go to a quiet space to work, but I’m wasting so much time commuting and it’s not imperative for my responsibilities. Tbh I’d reject it if you can’t go somewhere else I almost wish I did.
You know it used to be great six months ago when we were still at 50% going 2 days a week. It felt like when they wanted to go back to full capacity they didn’t bother to do a headcount. It’s far to busy now.
No shuttle service it’s up to you to get there but it’s a hybrid work environment so at least you’re not force to come in all 5 days. You definitely should’ve asked this during interviews
They ask where you are located and the address listed on the role description is Manhattan . It’s really an easy miss of communication since people think the commute shouldn’t be difficult between Jersey City and Manhattan
For what position?
