Hi friends, I joined CG in Dec as senior consultant (C1) in gcp devops with 22 LPA(20 +2 Variable) for 7.5 years experience. but i also have offer with IBM for 18 LPA. i have 1 year old baby so im thinking IBM might be better choice for WLB and WFH for future also.
I am not yet assigned to any project in CG hence please help me whether quitting CG and joining IBM for difference of 4 LPA is wise decision or not.Will CG provide WLB n flexibility
plz i am in urgency reply and help me decide ASAP

That's a quick jump (December to now), but IBM is a decent company and your logic makes sense.

You need to mkae your own decision and figure out what's best for you!

That seems like a massive jump. I think CG WLB varies based on project so it's not a guarantee. I would try to see if IBM matches your pay because I don't think it's worth switching to get paid less IMO

Hi,

I'm not sure about wlb in CG. But in IBM, most of the projects have wlb. I'm working for IBM and even I have a baby. I'm able to manage very well. But pls don't switch to IBM thinking that u can wfh for so long. WFH depends on your project and your manager. If you are ok to loose 4 lakhs money over wlb, u can join IBM. If at all u r switching, don't worry that such a short switch affects your career. Going fwd, show this 1 month as a gap. Don't mention anywhere that u have worked for CG for 1 month. Also try convincing CG team with a valid reason for your switch so that you don't get blocked in CG for future interviews. Good luck :)

BTW, what is your tech stack?

Fast forward I noticed that I was eventually handed everyone’s workload (AR & imports & duty and check coworker work + AP) Spoke to them about pay increase based on workload. So they raised it to 55k.. but I still feel underpaid based on the amt of work I do. I don’t know what my title or what to put on resume..

After my HR round today, Hr called up and said that will move forward with the offer but approvals with higher management might take some time as there is a hiring freeze.
Do you think offer will be released? And how much time these approvals take ?

She mentioned at the end that they are definitely going to offer as all feedbacks are positive.
But it all depends on the approvals.
