I took last Friday off (my first day of PTO all year) and surprisingly have a light schedule tomorrow, so I’d like to take advantage of it and take tomorrow off. I’m super burnt out and exhausted and could use it. Plus, I am visiting my parents for the week and would like to spend time with them. How do I bring it up to my boss? He’s critical of people taking PTO and I don’t want it to sound like I’m being lazy, especially since I just took last Friday off.

How's Siegfried PTO policy? Is there firmwide shutdown during the holidays?

Hello Fishes, Please help me in understanding the health insurance policy at Nagarro. Is spouse and parents by default enrolled in the default 3 lac amount? If not, what’s the premium amount I need to pay?

Hello Fishes,

I have 2 offers in hand currently -
1. CGI - 25LPA +1L JB
2. Neev systems - 23LPA (5%VP)

Neev systems is ready to negotiate it with CGI. And both companies have their own benefits.

Neev's hike is good compared to CGI(almost double) & CGI have some additional perks like cab facility, Creche allowance, mobile, internet bills reimbursements and additional 5% shares.

Both might have similar WLB (12-9pm).

My DOJ is tomorrow, unable to decide between them. Pls help me!!

Where do you find the time to get everything done in the day when you have multiple partners, associates and equity partners that interrupt you and want things turned around immediately while simultaneously working on deadlines? I feel like I’m the only one that can’t manage a 70+ case load without letting someone down. I constantly have to say “Can I do this tomorrow?” Etc. I don’t even have time to bill on the clock. I work until 7p at least every night. Top 10 family law firm.

Hi everyone, I am getting ready for a job interview, and need to create a media plan. I was hoping someone can help me with the next task: basically, I need to create inventory recommendation based on past performance. What I am very confused about is that they gave me Booked Impressions (=4M), but in the task it says I should assume there is unlimited inventory. Am I supposed to use this 4M only to calculate spend, ROAS, etc., but can actually have unlimited allocated impressions? Thank you!
