I would say west side of Wake County - Morrisville, Cary, and Apex for great neighborhoods and schools.

Do your research on the schools, lots of variation in public schools and many private options. Cary is likely a fine choice. I don’t love the cookie cutter housing options as a whole… the schools and food options are great but it can also be a little boring in my eyes.

I personally love Durham and think it is the culture hub of the triangle. There are a lot for families to do.

Look at Durham and maybe consider chapel hill if you haven’t already

My wife and I moved down here about 6 years ago. We found an apartment in the Brier Creek area because it was pretty central to everything in the triangle.
My wife made fun of me because I used Frankies Fun House on google maps as my target area. It was the location that was easiest to find on the map when you were zoomed out. Seemed to work though :)

Durham schools are still very hit or miss. Wake county...not southeast Raleigh. Chapel Hill yes but expensive

North Raleigh is great as well

One of the team member has applied leaves for continuous 3 days this month. Later she applied for a 15 days leave saying a medical emergency. Both the leaves were rejected from her manager saying connect with HR. though she is on leave without PM leave approval and this is not even prior notice to the team.
Now'what and all would be the consequences she might face. Is there any chance of these things are being escalated? Please advise!

How is CGI work culture and Banglore office?

Hey Dallas folks!

I want to get to know the local private companies. I worked at a private company with 2-3k employees before my MBA. They had an amazing culture, but limited progression opportunities. I'm thinking about looking for a smaller company (couple hundred to couple thousand employees) in the Dallas area and looking to find an amazing culture.

Anyone have recommendations on companies with great cultures in the Dallas/north of Dallas areas? (I live in the Plano/Allen/Mckinney area)
