HI,

I'd appreciate some advice on a tough career decision. I'm currently an Azure Data Engineer at a company with US telecom client. I've been there for 4 months and enjoy the work, but here's the twist only recently discovered, three months in, that my position is actually a contract role after joining

Company head told full-time status by October or November. However, this client-dependent position means there's a risk of termination based on the client's feedback, I got llyods gcp DE of

In your situation my opinion would be to take offer from LTC and ask for raise. Joining on same CTC makes no sense.
On normal situation I don't recommend people to join LTC as I know couple of Data Engineer who are in bench for more than 5-6 months.
Keep looking for better opportunities while you are on your notice period.

Is it a Service Based Company?

Hi everyone,

I’m seeking some advice regarding a career decision. I am currently working for a company with a US-based telecom client in an Azure Data Engineer position. I have 3 years of experience, and the work has been good so far I joined 4 months ago . However, I found out that my role is actually a contractor position, which I only discovered after joining 3 months ago.

The company mentioned that they would offer full-time employment by October or November. However, because the position is client-based, there is a risk of termination if we receive any negative feedback from the client recently got 2-3 people that's why I'm bothering This is particularly concerning because the company only has 4-5 clients in total, making the situation quite precarious.

Recently, I received an offer from Lloyds for a GCP Data Engineer position. This offer includes my current CTC and a 1.5 joining bonus.

I am feeling quite confused and concerned about which direction to take. Should I stay with my current company and hope for full-time employment at October , or should join lloyds ?

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or advice from the group.

Thank you for your support!
