I haven't experienced it myself, but a coworker got a warning while trying to log in from the DR. This was during her time at WPP.

It might be a good idea to ask HR first.

I also haven’t experienced it myself, but I know a few people who have. At WPP at least, the process is talk to HR and they can put in a transfer to an office in the country you’re moving to. It’s not guaranteed but I’ve seen a few people do it. Starts with HR though, because there’s all kinds of legal/tax implications when you switch the country you’re working from.

Yea-not going to jump ship without proper procedure….

I was able to do so but it took over a year and a half and many many rounds of interviews.

I am planning to shift to Data Analyst/Data scientist role. Right now i work for a project where I'm a software eng & we have to maintain our application on C++ code. It is more like support/dev and unit testing combined. Coding is hardly involved and my hold on DS is weak so not sure if I'll be able to crack technical interviews for C++ dev or anything similar.
So is this a right decision to move from application dev role to Data Science/analyst field? Does software engineer gets paid more?

Does anyone else feel like people who are generally nice in person and on calls sound mean or stand-offish in emails and text/chat?

Or maybe i'm just an overthinking copywriter who's reading into it too much.
