Hello everyone

I'm actively exploring new Project Manager/Scrum Master opportunities and would appreciate any leads, referrals, or guidance from the community.

Quick summary: With over 20 years of experience in technical leadership and project management, I specialize in helping Life Sciences organizations unlock high performance through the SAFe® 6.0 framework.

Core Competencies: Agile Transformation (SAFe 6.0) • CSV & GxP Compliance • Enterprise System Migrations • Program Governance

Is the working hours mentioned in my workspace correct? I have recently been allocated to a project and it shows timings from 11 pm -9 am..

Hi Sharks can you please tell me which can be a better option for me in case of job security and work life balance
Yoe : 7.9
Tech stack: endpoint manager SCCM
IGT (dufry client) : 22lpa includes 5% variable (complete WFH)
Mphasis (UCB Pharma client): 21 lpa including 5%variable - Hybrid working
Techm: 19 lpa + 1.25 joining bonus
TCS : 18.45 lpa

So I just had a client tell me their asylum case is fabricated, and can't I help prepare the person for court. My initial reaction, fire the client. I'm not that kind of atty. But I hear so many talk about finding a balance and not turning ppl away bc ultimately they need a defense and who knows what will come up along the way. How would you handle? How do you find the balance btwn not turning clients away but not being unethical?

I know it could differ depending on the company, but is It feasible to make 100k-200k as a client-side creative in NYC/be successful w. only client experience?

Hi please advise

can join client organisation; will their be any conflicts with current company?

Benefits to scrum or PMP certifications as a low level Associate? All the positions I see require 5+ years scrum experience. Also would appreciate people’s perspectives on scrum vs PMP in general. I’m a people person and quite good at leadership so I feel my talents are being wasted managing client direction on funds day to day.

Looking to pivot out of a top pharma marketing/ad agency and into consulting. Ultimately want to leverage both experiences to move client side or to a healthcare start up.

What are the best firms for this type of transition and why?

How fair is it for the firms to pay different salaries for the same work in different countries? or lower salaries to employees from the developing nations even though they might be working directly with the client or leading projects?
Cost of living is definitely one factor but how would you counter when a Consultant from Mexico and a Consultant from US want to go on a vacation to UK?

I am finishing up a project and I’m trying to document what I’ve done for my resume. What are some good metrics for someone who mainly created user stories, created dashboards, interacted with the client and developed statistical models? One of my dashboards got deployed to production but it’s to early to see the impact. My other dashboards are almost done but I’m moving on to something else.

Hi Sharks!
I had interviewed with PwC India for Business Analyst role at Pune location, my both Manager round and Client round went well. However I have still not received any call/ offer from HR. I did call the HR she told me that they have not heard back from the Client.
Any idea how much time does the HR can take if they want to give offer.
My last working day is on this Friday and will have to join other company on Monday if dnt received offer from PwC. Please guide me.

This question is for the project manager/resource manager. Project allocation will be done based on band or based on package in TCS

How to handle working with someone who frustrates you immensely? I work with someone who is one level above me hierarchically and is an ultimate micromanager (not one agenda or recap can be without edits) and is rude about establishing that they have dominance. The more senior leaders on the team are awesome and so is the client. It’s this one coworker who just got promoted and is now stepping on me constantly. Thanks!

I’m worried that my voice, communication style, and body language comes across as too effeminate for our straight clients and peers. I’m transitioning to sales now and am insecure that my personality and appearance may hinder sales gen? Client industry is very old school. Can LGBT partners//Ds/MDs chime in how they managed the same transition?

Hi fishes,
I have recently joined in a project as a Oracle JD Edwards finance Functional Consultant.
Is this a good ERP to kickstart your consulting career and whether there are good opportunities for this ERP in the future.

Where my DC peeps at??

Moving to San Antonio from Austin. Will be In Office 3 days a week near Sea World. Married with a 1 year old and active dog. We love good food and being active... Where should we live? Any other suggestions. As a reference we lived in the 04/Soco area for 6 years.

We bought a property and the house next door fence post is on our property line. We’re planning on putting a fence on our vacant lot. What do we do about the fence post? Since no one owns the house? It was foreclosed on and I think a bank owns it now.

So just found out my in-laws are having Thanksgiving ham and meatloaf and no turkey... do other people do this?

RIP James Gunn’s career. Can we be done with the outrage machine now?

Anyone here from IQVIA that have had their green card sponsorship done here? What was your timeline like?

I currently make 78k at Lockheed but I’m not doing what I’d like to be doing and i felt stuck and after many conversations with my manager and no solution in sight, I started applying elsewhere. I just recently got an offer from a smaller AI company for 95k that I plan to accept. I’m happy to make the jump, I just don’t know how my manager/coworkers will react when I tell them I’m leaving.

I read this super interesting article about how big companies like Toyota are investing in social-emotional training for their employees and seeing massive benefits. I actually think this could be a whole separate class for students of all ages. Learning about conflict resolution, growing your own self-regulation skills...it's really important.

Any experiences with coworking office spaces in Vancouver? Looking for an office space for 1 day per week around the downtown area.
