Hi all, I am working at Natwest Group RBS and I have recently applied for Product Manager Role(gurgaon) in Gartner. How much CTC I should ask and what is the general hike and bonus they give on yearly basis and can someone provide some insights on work life balance and leave policy?

Hi all,
I have a offer from Perficient and joining in 2 months time. Question :
1: how is the company in terms of job security and projects? I work with web analytics
2: How is the hike and work life balance.
3: Attrition rate
4: Hike is good but will it be a safer vet like Accenture Operations?
Need some views from people working there.
Thanks in advance.
How much time your divorce procedure took?

I do. But people don’t magically change when they have children. If your significant other isn’t equally taking care of chores before children I would expect things to remain similar after children.
Have a discussion with your partner prior to conceiving (or getting married if possible). Understand what their expectation is for having and raising a family. It Is a huge commitment and sacrifice. If you don’t have open communication chances are it will ruin your relationship.
I have a great husband but it’s not equal and I think knowing that it won’t be equal is important. I think that’s true for all household things but definitely parenting - there are things I do better/more efficiently and there are times my baby just wants me or either of us just needs a break bc they had a horrible work day and just can’t also deal with a fussy baby at bedtime. With that said, my husband got up at night with me when we were both on leave, worked hard to get good at diaper changes and bed time. So a year in we are at a place where there isn’t really anything one of us can’t handle. For me, this has been a good place for us and I feel supported most of the time but it’s probably not equal. I have learned on any given day we both feel like we did a lot so a lot of it is about perspective.
I do
My husband is a stay at home parent so our parenting split isn’t equal. His is significantly higher.
My husband is also the stay at home parent. He does the majority of the work and chores. When I want something really clean I still have to do it because… well he does his best 😂
I as a mother do 95%. And work full time. Bring in equal income.
Does he notice this or care??
I have a great husband, 3 young kids and been together for 17 years. It is not equal.
I do most of the parenting and everything related to my kids academic life, extracurricular activities, clothes shopping etc. He does most of the house chores, all of the yard work and endlessly fixing things around the house.
In the beginning, I pursued 50/50. But as we’ve been together longer, I realized that there are things that I’m naturally good at and do very efficiently such as tutoring my kids and well, parenting in general. But for the life of me, I cannot fix anything and he can look at something for 5 seconds and knows right away what to do. So, I’m now at peace with our current dynamics because it allows me to maximize doing what I love most without worrying about things like yard work 😆
Do you have a significant other currently? I’m definitely scared of this too. We don’t have kids yet but have been thinking of it. Even before kids, it’s important to separate household chores and get into those habits because it’s not going to miraculously change. When people say relationships take work, it’s true. There’s a lot of uncomfortable conversations that you have to have. My BF definitely stepped up and took care of things once we had that conversation. If he wouldn’t have, I wouldn’t have been comfortable continuing the kids conversation yet.

I do. Having a kid is inherently unequal (only one can breastfeed) but my husband does everything else he possibly can.
I do.
Don’t take other people as example they each have their own experiences and history; instead aim for good communication and delegation of tasks from the beginning of the RELATIONSHIP not the beginning of marriage.
I do. I probably still do more but that’s my fault for taking on more. There’s no conflict as to who to do what. We do together what needs to be done. I probably changed about 20% of his diapers so far. Our little son is just turning 1 in a week and it’s been quite the journey but would not trade it for anything!
