Hi all,
I am at Big4 UK (London). Recently, I started to suspect myself to have Asperger’s. I haven’t seen a doctor yet and I haven’t been officially diagnosed. I was always understanding that something is not “normal” with me but I didn’t know about Asperger’s. Let’s assume I go to a doctor and officially been diagnosed. What are the pros/cons to disclose it to my employer? Can they fire me because of this? I am on visa in this country. That’s why don’t want to risk it at all. Thanks for help!

I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this?

I got opportunities from-
Dassault Systemes
Bentley Systemes
Cerner

I was thinking to join Dassault but after some research I found that many people are leaving the organization and the reviews are not so good which it used to be. (My friend is working in DS and I got to know that the policies are not good and organization is forcing people to come to office and they are not easy to adopt).

Also there is some discrepancy going on. Need your suggestion.
My 2nd option is to go with Cerner.
