Is it foolish of me to reject Goldman Sachs offer and join American Express. Where Amex is paying more 4 lakhs (fixed) to GS. Choosing WLB over brand name? Yoe 7, should I choose GS or Amex?

Nope, I would've done the same even if GS was paying 4L more.

Amex is good don't over think 4LPA difference is quite something to overlook upon

GS is better. Amex has a slow culture. You will crave for work and they will not give you for initial months atleast.

GS. Being an amex employee... Telling you growth is slow... Work load could take you in such a comfort zone that you will go ask for work. And amex has recently said that the work force upto 6k employee worldwide will be reviewed.

How much amex offered?

Yes

Should chose GS, i would have been at your place would have give a less concerns about wlb.

Hi Fishes,

I have given my interview in HCL and cleared 1 TP, 1 hcl manager & Client TP and Client Manager rounds .
In initial screening HR told the generic statement of 30-40% and I have given my ask as 50% minimum. After clearing the rounds I heard from the project team that Client has given great feedback and wanted to take me in .
What is the % I can ask in HR Discussion and will they reject in HR if I ask more now .
I have 9.5 years total experience and role is Storage Architect.
Thanks
