Just got a new job in Fountain Valley requiring 3 days in office … where do I live?? Would commuting from playa vista or manhattan beach be ridiculous? All my friends and family are in LA and it will suck if I have to live in OC but may have to do it ..

Current CTC 12LPA

Hello Fishes,

I have signed the offer letter received from NTT Data. What will be the consequences if I don't join?

How is NTT Data for job security, growth and work life balance. I was asked to work in UK shifts, will I get any allowance for that??

Before how many should I inform the onboarding HR if I want to postpone the joining date from Friday to next Monday ( from 26th Aug to 29th Aug )
Is it an easy process or can also be declined ?

I'm really having a difficult time understanding how engineering is supposed to be really competitive, most of the projects I've worked on were in groups and there wasn't usually a clear "leader," we were just on a team

Hi All, just sharing what on mind to vent it out from my system. Maybe with this I could gain some insights and inspiration.
I have been working as a data scientist since 2018 & have been the bread winner. I have neither been under a proper mentor nor with a team of peers from my field to help me out. I was alone and confused. I have never really got the chance to prove myself which makes me all the more depressed. I'm not sure what to do with my future, indecisive and low on confidence.

What is the next process once accepted offer in pwcindia. I have accepted offer and have my joining in 2 weeks. Have not received any further communication from HR.

Hi, do you know of any opening as a production manager making at least 120K? The environment where I'm currently working is getting more toxic than ever and they are expecting me to fill all the openings with the minimum wage. I've been in the same company for the last 7 years, but with all the pandemic still going on, nobody seems to understand that when you are short staffed is impossible to get the same results as when you are fully staffed. Any help or insights will be greatly appreciated.
