My friend just made partner at a small venture capital firm and I want to get him a gift to congratulate. Would an Hermès tie be too cliche?

Hi Fishes,
I have a qn, for any further switches, when HR asks my current CTC, would they offer hike based on my fixed pay in my organization or with total CTC.

I do have two offers

1. X - 9.6 fixed + 10% of X as variable
2. Y - 9.38 fixed and 22% variable

Considering I switch after next 1-2 years, may I know which would be better offer?

Ok this one’s for my fellow adhd’ers and auties: are we pro or against disclosing? Feels like it’d help my partners understand why I’m so good at certain things and absolute shite at others, rather than just thinking I’m lazy. But also, disclosure = risk of stigma. Where do people fall? For the seniors/counsel/partners, would you want your associates to disclose something like this or is it just irrelevant/going to make you think they’re just a problem for you even if you like their work?
