Hey folks,
I’m currently on the bench and received my bench letter a while ago. According to the letter, my LWD (Last Working Day) would be 90 days from the date it was received, which comes out to 2nd July.

Just wanted to check with others who’ve been through this — does someone reach out regarding LWD formalities, or is there anything I need to proactively do as the date approaches? Appreciate any insights.

Thanks in advance!

Is a role as a QA at a growing tech company a dead end role?

Anyone ever do it or witness it? Appreciate your opinions!

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
