Whichever *team* you would rather be a part of. Work is always work. But working with a group of people you like spending 50 hours a week with and working for someone who will support you is the most important factor

OP, what do these two projects do??

Don’t want to reveal too much for confidentiality but they’re similar kinds of work

Both are equally long and secure (mission-critical stuff). Definitely those would be deciding factors for me in other scenarios, but any other criteria for this situation?

Coin flip?

Longest one

Both, I’m on three long term FY engagements and rarely work on just one. It’s manageable

Not an option for me. These are both full-time and I have to pick

Congrats on having options! I agree with C2. It’s all about the people. You want to work with a collaborative team in a safe environment and get the opportunities you want/need on your path to the next level

Hi everyone! I’d like to create a simple graphic of our HR operational calendar for my client group. A visually appealing infographic that outlines our annual talent cycles (talent planning, performance reviews, promotion nominations, merit, etc) so leadership always knows what’s coming and can better prepare and strategize. Any ideas on how I can best visually represent this? Any tools, programs or templates you recommend? Thanks!
