I have an offer from an MNC with a joining date next Thursday, but I recently interviewed with Amgen for a role. I reached out for an update, and they said my application is on hold while reviewing other candidates.

Should I accept the offer or wait for Amgen’s decision? Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Accept and join now, in case you get from Amgen leave then. Or else, shift your joining for 2-3 weeks

Accept the offer

Atleast take what you have in hand...there is no point of waiting if your profile is said to be on hold, even if it was an offer from google.

But why are you so interested in Amgen?
What is the name of other MNC?
What is your yoe, profile and ctc offered?

Working as CAL Manager with Accenture S&C India. Offered ~GBP 76.5K (fixed plus flexi) at Manager Grade by Deloitte London.

Prior to Accenture, I have already served as S&O Manager with Deloitte India for ~1.5 yrs - so this would be my second stint with Deloitte as Manager "again".

2 questions:
1. Should I ask for Senior Mgr (AD) grade - to which they have already said NO
2. Is GBP 76.5K sitting at the lower end of M grade in Deloitte UK? What should be a good expectation for the role
