I’m sure this has been posted before, but is there a professional way to renege on an offer or it’s always a bad idea? Accenture wants a response for Jan start, and still interviewing with Slalom.

Tell Accenture you need more time. Better than accepting and reneging. And Accenture isn’t going to pull your offer because you’re looking elsewhere. Actually provides evidence of market value. Of course they may say “no” but I’d be surprised if they do.

Interview process took forever for me at Slalom.

With the reason being they try not to hire to the bench.

Hi Fishes

I have got 2 offers
1. Tigerhall - 45LPA

In Tigerhall, I will get a lot of free time as the work is same as what I have done so far in my career therefore, I can focus on more things now.
In Zupee, I will get to learn new skill which might be good for my career.
Also, comparatively in hand salary of Tigerhall is higher than Zupee (it will less tax deduction as it's a Singapore based company)
Please suggest
