I have a joining with Cognizant Technology Solutions (CTS) on May 4 with a fixed package of 18 LPA. I was also selected by Staples on April 30 for 23 LPA, but they will release the offer letter only after May 4 due to the holiday and weekend. I am unsure how to proceed. If I join CTS and later receive the Staples offer, will I need to serve the full 90-day notice period, or is early release or buyout possible?

Would you be bothered if a colleague (peer or subordinate) went on vacation to the Caribbean for Thanksgiving, then decided to stay there and work remotely while his wife continued to vacation for another 2 weeks? I am the wife and I'm trying to get an idea of whether this would hurt my husband at work. He has been working while on vacation, so he has already showed that he can work. But he only started in August.

Any ideas on how to negotiate a delayed start date? I really want it to be Jan. My mental health needs some time off and this company breezed through interviews to offer in 1 week when I was expecting it to take at least a month. I really need some time to recover from burnout.
