Need Career Advice!

I’m into React Native Mobile App Development for the past 6 years. I’m quite uncertain of the career scope as I’m on bench for past 6 months.

Do I have to switch careers? Do I have to jump into web roles? Do I have to learn native development? Do I need to continue with React Native? I’m confused.

CCTC: 15.5 LPA
ECTC: 32 LPA

I have one offer of 22 LPA (Senior React Native Developer)

With which tech stack can I achieve this expectation? Suggest me some easier to switch.

Hi

I resigned Epam Anywhere last week because I am on bench since 2.5 month , package in EPAM Anywhere was 32.40 lpa fixed .

Started looking outside and got opportunities.

Two offers:

Citi bank- 3277000 fixed

Mastercard- 308000(including 2.80lakhs variable)

I am really confused between these two companies, I heard WLB is very good in Mastercard, but again their salary difference is too much.

Kindly suggest its Urgent.

Hello PwC AC Friends,

I have been on bench since I joined the firm 3 months ago. Now I have got project but still on bench. I have got mail regarding not raising snapshots because I was on bench so i didn't do anything except trainings and some learning. I don't have hours to raise snapshot for.

What shall I do in this case? I am very much worried that if i don't have any project hours to show, will they fire me or what actions are supposed to be taken ? Thanks.
