Dela...WHERE?? Hehe get it

funnylike

I live in the Philly suburbs on the PA side just north of the DE border. If in Wilmington, Philly is a 30-40 minute drive with a train option and well worth multiple visits. For sights in the Wilmington/western Philly burbs, google “brandywine valley”. It’s actually quite a nice area with a lot of history, but you have to get out of Wilmington city proper.

If further south and you’ll still be there after Memorial Day, the DE/MD beaches are options; southern NJ beaches are easy drive as well. If you’re in Dover, you have my sympathies. But I assume you’re in or near Wilmington as that’s where most of the economic action is.

Hi All,

I am 12 yoe, working at a very stable product based organisation (not NEC).
But I want to switch to a better role & compensation.

I got an offer from Thoughtworks GGN as a lead consultant. Being a mother, I have anxiety about joining TW, since it is service based.

1. Bcoz of the recession and hiring is not for specific project, is it the right time to join TW or is it risky w.r.t job security?
2. How flexible is TW for WFH or it depends on the client?
3. How is WLB?

Please help..

Recently started my own firm and interested in others thoughts. Are there resources out there for practical advice or is it only something that comes with experience? For example, I can take let's say a 601A client and use the resources available to me to learn how to do it. But if a client asks me is it better to marry my fiance in her home country, bring her here on a K-1 or have her visit on a B-2, that's not learned from a book or webinar. How does one learn how to evaluate new cases?

MOSS ADAMS SoCal (Irvine, San Diego, LA) BRS people can you please provide some insight? I spoke to an experienced hire recruiter today and he said the company is moving to a hybrid model to include more in-person time between clients and staff. How often are you traveling to client sites and the office? is it as much as audit 2-3 weeks living in a hotel or sitting in the client's office? or maybe once a month? or are you working mostly remote? Thank you.

Can anyone recommend a GREAT recruiter? I’m looking to move from agency to client side - would love someone who understands that transition.

Thanks in advance!
