I'm early in my career, managed to save $30K to invest, and want to get my hands dirty with a rental property without too much risk (e.g. no HML/flipping). It sounds like that's a tall order in the NY/CT area given the prices, not to mention whether I'd be able to get a mortgage on anything below $100K, but I figure I'll give it a shot anyway. Any advice on what you might do in my position? Am I being crazy with this idea?

Currently I have offers from 2 companies (say A and B), A is paying more but I want to join B (B is paying less but better brand). Planning to ask B to match salary that A offers. Have 2 doubts:
1) Does companies actually verifies the pay that the competition is offering? (Dont want to ruin my offer with A if B doesn't match the salary)
2) Will it impact my job prospects at A if it gets to know I tried to match their offer from a competition?
Pls help, TIA

Hi All,
Need guidance.
I have been trying for switch from 5 6 months. Most of companies want immediate joiners. Finally tcs called and i have cleared technical interview. In hr discussion they mentioned they will give only 25% hike. As it is first offer i thought i will accept it and then try for more offers. But today my current company manager told that i got promoted to SSE. I am confused now. Whether i should accept tcs offer and resign current organization or shd i negotiate in current cmp.

Hey All,
Just wanted your suggestion.

I have 5+ yrs of experience and it's been 1 week since I have switched from TCS to one product base company as they had offered me very high package.

Now I regret this decision due to toxic work culture, timings and many more which wasn't told me during the interview nor before my joining.

Luckily yesterday I have cleared all the rounds in one of the top service based company and probably expecting my offer in next 1 week time.

Hi Guys, I've been working as a salesforce developer for 2 years now and thinking of switching to a PMO role. Is there good career growth? Are PMO's in demand? What do they do exactly? Would the experience be helpful to become a program manager in consulting or Tech post MBA?

Service based companies paying good and they hiring you for a particular project based on client budget. Now what will happen if the project ends and you are on bench and your salary is on higher side as not billable as per project?

Because current trend is temporary.

I had given interview with SCB GBS earlier but got the offer now.
They are giving me 5 lakhs more than my new company CTC, but I have heard negative reviews

Is it wise for me to leave my current product based where I am fine for now to join SCB.
