Hello,

Need advice from those who left SAP recently or leaving soon.

Did you sell all your SAP shares. Its sad that the value is at multi-year low and we are made to sell at a loss :(... Is there any cheaper option to keep it for some more years in our personal account. Did any of you got it transferred at any Indian brokerage firm? Please do let me know.

Thanks

Would you all say you’re invested in good projects if the market cap remains the same recently, but your portfolio keeps going up and up? Or is that dumb logic.

Stuck between 2 offers, which would you choose? Eventually I want to work in ML/AI or blockchain/crypto

Offer 1: Non-profit financial advisor, awesome culture, design process & ethos align with mine, but still beholden to some outdated backend systems. Basically won't be able to innovate for a while

Offer 2: Consultancy focused on spinning up startups in large corp. Seems like cool work but I know very little about the culture/ process. Very sales-y HR but haven't talked to designers yet

So stuck. What do I do? I joined this firm a year ago (4 yrs exp total) to grow/get more court/client exposure. Then 2 more-experienced associates were hired, pandemic, & all cases are divided between the other 2. I have no defined tasks except deficiency letters or the odd pro bono case. Boss claims it's mentoring. I still need to meet bill req.

Last wk Boss said I'll do more & my work was good, but today said I can't 2nd chair bc I don't have experience. I'm doing less now than my prior firm.
