Hi yall!
Left my retail managment job about 6 months ago. Currently a SAHM, but planning in joining the workforce again within the next couple months. I would like a job still helping people but not in a retail setting. Any advice on different careers that I could go into having 10+ years in retail management.

Thanks in advance!

Hi. I am desperate to change jobs. I have two offer in hands: Deloitte Hyderbad on a contract basis with 15% hike and KPMG Bangalore FTE with 25% hike. I like Deloitte as a brand better.
None of of these two companies are willing to offer more saying that they have a tight budget.

Which one should I take? Please help me decide.

Not sure whether to be honest or not in this situation. I have decided that I want to leave my job and do a masters degree.

Plus if they hire someone I can train the transition will be easier? But I don’t want to shoot myself in the foot if they were thinking or giving me a pay rise or promoting me?
