Hi all,

I have offers from Citi Chennai (₹24 LPA – C11) and IBM Bangalore (₹19 LPA ). CTC-wise, Citi is better.

Timeline:

Last working day: Aug 5

IBM joining date: Aug 11 (onboarding letter received)

Citi FADV BGV started July 25, currently at 69% progress

Can anyone share how long Citi’s BGV usually takes for lateral hires and whether I should wait for Citi confirmation before joining IBM?

Thanks in advance!

Recently accepted a temp role as an HR admin for a former employer. Previously interned there & left because my supervisor did not have any growth opportunities planned out for me; this was in spite of my stellar performance, as reflected in my 90 day review. She has since left the company, but there’s crazy turnover in the company & in the HR department in particular. Just that an HR coordinator resigned. Is it worth going back into a dumpster fire w/ no leadership to gain experience?
