I am in a critical situation and need advice from experienced folks or HRs. I don't want to end up jobless or having my offer revoked.

My Current Status:

Previous Company: Last Working Day (LWD) was Jan 23rd. (Currently technically Unemployed).

Offer A (JPMC): Joining Date is tomorrow, Feb 2nd.

Offer B (Microsoft): I received the verbal offer and signed the initial pdf. Bgv verification is pending and HR said we usually recommend candidates not to resign before bgv is cleared

What to do??

Join JPMC, resign once you get Microsoft's offer

Luckily you got good advice from someone on time! Always join who gave u offer then resign

Usually bgv is cleared in 15 days with official offer letter being released on the same day. I'd suggest wait for MS. Most people do resign after getting an initial offer letter, that is normal.

I come from a very middle class upbringing, and so does she, although she’s influenced by friends dating professional athletes and stuff

I have 9.5 yrs of experience and am currently level 62 in Microsoft. I feel I should be Senior SE in Microsoft (level 63) but when I got microsoft offer last year the HR said it is the maximum they can give. Fixed base is 28 LPA. There is an upcoming appraisal cycle in September, so I wanted to ask how much can I expect Microsoft to adjust the base salary in this appraisal cycle ( given my performance was decent) ?

Secondly, when my team members see me in cafeteria we expect they'll sit with us but people here are being rude they directly go and sit with their friends they don't call you to join. ( atleast they could have said they are accompanied)
