From what I’ve heard, the big Florida industries are quite safe (ID, estate planning, real estate). Not too sure outside of that to be honest. I can’t imagine Florida will stop growing any time soon though.

Can anyone tell how much time Accenture takes to give confirmation call or offer letter after all the process. Because my recruitment process was started in January and my last interview was in March 1st week which I cleared. After that they did Background Verification. Now it's been a month there is no communication from their side and they don't even reply to raised tickets. Please help me with this query.

Hello Fishes,

I have joined hcl on 24 th sep 2021 and my last working day here is 18th May 2022.

If you are on notice period and not doing work properly or on time then what can be the consequence ?
They cant put me on performance defaulters as I voluntarily resigned and also got good feedback from client.
The reason I resigned was the sh^^head manager and project.
He said I would be released from project soon and then on bench but after resigning he is saying you have to serve the NP n we cant release early.
This is only option left to get released from this sh^t place
