Hi Fishes,
What could be a better deal, if given an option (for a 4.9 yrs experienced Java Developer):

Joining Cognizant (at Hometown) as a Salesforce Developer (will be cross-trained by them on it)
Or
Joining Publicis Sapient (offering permanent WFH) as a Java Developer.

Suggest basis on the following two factors as well:
1. If payscale is not much different / not a concern.
2. If Publicis Sapients offer a better package.

Kindly also state the reason (in details if possible) for your answer.

Although I've not yet received the offer from Sapient but having a hint/idea on what they can/will offer.
What if Sapient offers a much better pay?
Lets consider an example of a difference in CTC of 2.5L more than CTS?
What should be done in such case?
Shall I still go with CTS Salesforce?

You can go with sapient , explore some new techs and then you can later join cognizant and settle down.

There are 2 things here:
1. Either I should choose a currently in-demand technology and not look for salary difference.
2. If salary difference is more then choose the highest, irrespective of technology offered.
If I join Sapient, I would loose an option to get Salesforce again in future.
Joining CTS is not a big thing, I could get that again in future, but getting Salesforce is.
I could easily join Sapient on Java, and continue my career on the same later with other companies as well.
But should I do so, or choose an automation in-demand tech now, begin and establish my career on the same or not, is the big question.
Also, is it a good idea to change domain at such experience level?

MS Teams Tips:
1. Always prefer to ping someone and check their availability before calling them directly. If someone calls you directly ask them to ping you and check before calling directly.
2. For Groups in Teams, Prefer to mute the notifications, else they would continuously buzz and disturb you.
3. Don’t ping on a weekend or Holiday. If someone does the same, prefer not to reply.
4. Deliberately put the status as offline in teams every Friday evening.
