I wouldn’t say we “keep to it” but we strive to have good balance. Most of my weeks are 45-50.

I don’t leave early unless I have a personal need

I’m a senior manager coming up on 9 years at Pro and can say 95% of my career has been 40-45 hour weeks. Nearly all billable. In addition I get nearly 30 days of vacation that i use every year without any questions and get 10 weeks of paternity leave. Downsides to pro is work and pay. Work isn’t all that interesting and can do a lot of audit. Pay is less than big4 but may be somewhat comparable when you break it down by per hour basis.

I’m in Technology Consulting at Protiviti and bill on average 45 hours a week. Our office leader actually told us that our salary is based on us working 45 hours a week which caught me off guard when I first heard it.

I’ve had to work on the weekends for one client. It’s definitely not a regular thing!

Amadeus is also giving joining bonus of 75k. Amadeus is paying more, may give better hikes too, but I am finding it hard to let go off Oracle's brand name on my resume even if it's means around 2L less over an year. I am planning to work for atleast 3 years in my next company.

Was your background check complete before your start date?

Hello Fishs,

I have given 3 rounds of interview for the position of SE- B8 , i.e. Lead SE. Now in salary discussion round i asked HR for a CTC between a range of 31-34L. But they told me max they can give is 29.5L. I still did not accepted the initial offer from HR, it is going again one more round for salary negotiation after HR confirms the bracket from Business. I know Natwest dont negotiate once you accepted the offer. What CTC can i expect from Natwest for Lead SE.
