Is P&T really just trying to replace local dev teams with AC/ offshore teams??

Yes. Just look around. P&T is no longer hiring local devs and moving work to AC / offshore teams. Leadership is also doubling down on technology stacks - Python, JavaScript, C#

Good languages to double down on. Nothing wrong with any of them for front end. Back end or data science work

Anywhere you go as a dev there will be an offshore component unless you are pure startup. So In this industry you need to be good at dealing with an offshore/nearshore model. New stuff will have a mix. Keep the lights on stuff will be mostly offshore. Even if you are hiring onshore it’s highly likely that more then 2/3 of your candidates are from India and looking for h1b. And with remote work now the advantages of onshore are eroded. If it can be done remotely…it can be done offshore. The biggest issue really is the time zone but they are opening a nearshore in Mexico soon. Be the person who knows how to make offshore work.

It’s ridiculous and they are pretty bad. During interviews they can’t even initialize an Array. 🤦. I think I’m done with PwC. Time to bounce

I work for a small firm (about 20 attorneys) and make 90k. I’m coming up for a raise discussion in a couple of months but don’t know how to go about it/what is reasonable to ask for. I bill about 35 hrs/week at 400/hr, so I think I deserve a bump, especially considering the posture of the market. Any advice/feedback from similarly situated associates or partners at similarly sized firms?

Why does the P&T org view Suneet as a Pope-like figure?

Clearly he has ascended and is respected, but it’s comments like this — ‘Wow! You got to meet with Suneet?!?,’ that make me wonder. 🤔

What’s the (back)story? What am I missing?

Also the continual request(s) for self-validation is something I have never seen of someone at his level — and I’ve been around (and coached) a lot of executives.

I have to admit that I wasn't terribly impressed by the virtual Co-Lo for Digital. The exception to that, though, was David's insightful comment that leadership knows and expects that many of us are struggling to come back from the pandemic, and it's okay to ask for help and or take a leave. Digital culture, and how we are real and take care of each other, is just AMAZING. That speech alone made me so proud to be here and turned around a lot of my negative thoughts.

Fellow P&T Directors - here’s a thread for us to discuss what we are hearing/not hearing with regards to PCLDE and the making of new partners in P&T.

On every call, we hear Joe talk about making new Partners and his commitment. I have yet to see any of those ‘commitments’ be reflected in actions or explanations. (eg. No senior directors from commercial GTM going into PCLDE this year …) What?

Do they really think we’re going to ‘stick around’ until they ‘figure it out’ …
