If your company policy is unlimited PTO, then they do have the right to deny you.

Deloitte has removed the vaccine requirement to enter the office, but there are still many Deloitte employees who are unvaccinated. Is anyone concerned that we have let these people win? Does anyone feel like we are caving in to the people who refused to comply? Doesn’t this send the wrong message? If they know they can just wait it out, won’t they be incentivized to do that again when the next pandemic comes?

Hey Folks,

Currently serving notice period in cognizant, having only one offer from "amdocs". Tcs Status showing "evaluation in Progress" (it would remain the same status for years, i guess 🤔, so no hope on TCS)
Right now bit nervous,
1. whether i get release on the time, as they have put big efforts to retain me. (Earned leaves: 24)
2. if NP not get shortened, then whether Amdocs will postponed my DOJ.
3. is there any chance, if amdocs revoked l the offer letter, which i already accepted.

I joined EY this week. May i know whether are any good benefits to know during the first few months?
