Hello fishes, I'm currently working as a Project Manager. I've been asked for a PMO manager role in a different org. Any suggestions if it's a better role to consider?

Both roles are almost same right? What’s the difference in responsibilities?

In my opinion I don't think so. Looks like it slightly differs in each org. In my current org, it seems to be 1 or 2 levels higher role. Nevertheless it might vary in other org. I'm not 100% sure though. So I need any inputs if anyone has better clarity on the role.

PMO will more probably act as central repository & process disposition.. You can get projects also sometimes but mostly it will be on org procedures , templates and resource management.. So get to know the scope from the team..

Working on some law firm applications tonight and it sucks that I know that I am so capable and have a strong work ethic but firms can’t see beyond grades or the fact that I didn’t go to a t14 law school or prestigious undergrad.

It’s discouraging sometimes especially because I worked so hard with pretty much no guidance (first gen, poc, low-income) to get into college and do well and then get into a t30 law school

Hi all,

I interviewed with capgemini for SAP ABAP role and my YOE is 4 years. Just 2 hours after my interview, I got a call from someone at Capgemini saying that I am selected.
They just asked my notice period and current location.I asked them, what is the next round going to be and they said that it is going to be salary discussion. But till now, no one has reached out to me.
Does it mean they got another candidate for same job?
If they get back to me, how much should I ask?
Current - 9.9

Which offer should I accept? Currently staff 2 at big 4 in Tax with CPA license. I want to leave tax ASAP. Both are public companies +1B in revenue and same salary. Offer 1 - staff revenue accountant so reading contracts, speaking with the sales team and legal team, a lot of work at the end of the months to close books and reconcile transactions to make sure we are ASC 606 compliant. This track usually leads to director of revenue. Offer 2 - internal audit staff so SOX and compliance projects.
