Is there any big law firm at all that uses Calendly to schedule meetings? Used it on a pro Bono project and now find it really hard to go back to the old ways

But like you know you can see your coworkers availability (unless they blocked it) on Outlook? I feel like no one knows at my firm and it takes 1000 emails until a meeting is set

Agreed. I don’t understand why we all pretend like scheduling assistant doesn’t exist.

Use an assistant! Calendly is not a high-touch service--I find it rude.

I did an emergency project for my company last year. I spent a month working 16-18 hours a day to help get a product out. During this year's bonus/raise cycle we were told there were no merit increases, however I got a hefty retention bonus. I have heard rumblings of another emergency project and don't want to do it unless I get compensated up front somehow for it. What leverage do I have, and what is reasonable to ask for?

I joined Accenture recently in Level 8 and have been recently rolled off from a project to bench. The issue here is I joined as a Scrum master and could not clear 2 client interviews to get into a project. This is making me anxious regarding my job security. Any inputs are welcome.

Hello Guys,

I joined
Cognizant recently, the project interview calls which I am getting is not from my base location.
I have the location constraint, should I wait for the right opportunity or raise this concern to ADP team so they can look in to it?

As per ADP policy, one should not have any constraints and take the project as FCFS basis.
