Got overdue raise at yrly review, weeks later got cornered into travel gig for a yr contract m-f cross country client NY-CA without a salary review. Any tips to negotiate salary / what I should make?

You can’t get cornered into a travel gig- that’s far beyond the reasonable scope of your job and not what you work in your city for. Time for a new one if they’re going to bully you.

Will you be expensing all food/lodging for that year? That’s a hefty savings?

I agree - I just am not sure what is reasonable to request given the circumstances versus what I’d need personally to take this gig without simultaneously start looking for other opportunities. Anyone been through something similar / have thoughts on what I should be asking for?

We Indians are so poor we can't think anything else except money. Whole Fishbowl is all about YOe and Salary. No one interested about if any company doing any innovation or not. B-Tech colleges put ads with Package and Campusing only. Almost 99% Indian YouTube thumbnail is like "5 lakh to 40 lakh", "Interview Experience in bracket 50Lpa" etc.. Hardly we can see Foreign Editorial things marked with Packages.

This is for a guidewire role.
Which is a better offer? What would be a good option for growth wrt role, salary etc.
Also, PWC claims to offer variable based on their fixed CTC based on the ratings.. is this true ? How much is the avg percentage given?

Thanks in advance!

Which one should I go for?

1. Oracle - 18.3 LPA fixed + probable bonus (I may or may not get)
2. Amadeus - 18 fixed + 1.5 variable.

Amadeus is also giving joining bonus of 75k. Amadeus is paying more, may give better hikes too, but I am finding it hard to let go off Oracle's brand name on my resume even if it's means around 2L less over an year. I am planning to work for atleast 3 years in my next company.

What would you have done in my place? Should I go for Oracle or Amadeus?

Today I got an email from TCS to complete an ibegin registration. Whenever I login, it is asking me to enter PAN details and mail ID.

As if I remember, one of the consultancy, used my PAN to register in ibegin but I’m unable to login since it is registered by their mail ID and my PAN.

I'm trying to estimate the floor of vaccinations to get a sense if the "100 million doses in 100 days" is even possible:

Assumptions

> 6 hour workday

= 240 people vaccinated per day x 6000 hospitals
= 1.4 million people vaccinated per day

US bought 100 million of Moderna doses in Aug and additional 100 million doses of Pfizer in Dec = 200 million doses available in total
