Hi folks, need advice. I was laid off (LWD 31 Aug). Got an offer from Publicis Sapient: 16.5 fixed, joining 16 Sept. But I’m also in final rounds with other firms aiming 20+. Asked HR for 1–2 weeks but they’re reluctant. Torn between joining safe vs waiting for better. Worried about gap if i didn't get some offer on time or relocation if offers come late and have to relocate.. Background: Data Engineer, 4.1 YOE, last fixed 11 + 5.5 var/bonus/esop.. some lst rounds are scheduled next weeks..

Your options are limited to the companies that you have offer letters from. declining a confirmed offer basis anticipated one may not be a good idea
