Well there are boutique firms that could use your skills. Don't know your specialty, but if it's change management, then you could probably find tons of opportunities in other firms. Not sure about industry options, but I imagine there are firms that hire people who understand and can analyze the way people work/live in order to design products or spaces? Could also explore think tanks or analyst firms that examine workplace dynamics... Can't think of any, but it might broaden your field.

Would love to hear thoughts on best approach of you are a senior associate at V10 firm.

1. Oracle - 18.3 LPA fixed + probable bonus (I may or may not get)

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.

What would you have done in my place? Should I go for Oracle or Amadeus?
