Hi fellow mates,
Need some genuine advice and reality check about EY GDS.
I currently have an offer for SAP Functional/Tech role and I’m seriously evaluating whether to join or not. I recently moved from Deloitte India within 10 months mainly because of heavy favouritism, poor culture, politics, and lack of work-life balance.
• How is the actual work culture? • Is WLB manageable in SAP projects? • How are managers andand team culture in reality? • Is there too much politics/micromanagement?

I'm in a SAP technical role. Personally I like my team, department and leaders. There is some politics of course but nothing that's unmanageable.

The wlb should be a little better than DI because GDS is not a direct client facing role however sometimes some project have late night shift timings.

Thanks bro

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…

Is it wrong that I’m just not into PE/VC? It seems to be the most desirable exit for most people that I work with. The work seems like it’s not a good fit for me but it feels crazy to pass up trying to get that amount of money when there really isn’t a realistic alternative to that amount of wealth (and I do want that amount of wealth).
