R Systems - 28 LPA - Remote

YOE - 6.5 years

Things you wish someone would have told you before starting a career in marketing?

I have 5 years of work experience with equal experience in Data Engineering and DevOps. Now I am thinking to focus on a particular area. Can someone suggest me which one will have more scope in future. I am equally interested in both.

Would moving from a firm to an employee relations position mean that I never secure an in-house employment law position? Or would such a move better position me to go in-house one day? I am having difficulty transitioning from a labor & employment firm to an in-house role, and so I am exploring alternatives while keeping in mind my future career trajectory.

Has anyone heard of "to the new" company in noida.
Hows the company as brand wise. Will switching from a well known company to a less known company be a downgrade from career growth perspective(less number of calls in next switch) ?

What do I do?
Just switched to a gud org with gud perk,pay,project work but My boss is the epitome of a**h*** reasons-
Onboarded me on a huge project (12 phase proj) with no KT, only gave docs to read from.
He was handling this proj till phase 4 but has completely withdrawn out without proper transition.
I cannot make decisions and my decisions are overridden by him.
I have 2 yrs experience and it's now my onus to negotiate with PPL in VP,EVP position and also handle testing & dev team.

I currently work at Fidelity Investments in the call center. I want to move my career towards in person planning at a branch and there isn’t a lot of opportunity here at Fidelity to do that in my area. What are some other good firms to work for?

Does anyone practice White Collar criminal defense in NYC or know a decent amount about it? Is it fun or fulfilling? Is it a good way to break into government work in the future?

Foreign LLM student here. I plan to take the NY bar exam in February. I’m thinking of taking a bar prep course (most likely Barbri). They offer two options: the “traditional” course (which lasts around 2.5 months) and an extended 6-month course. The difference in price is substantial – 2.5k for the traditional course vs 6k for the extended one. Any thoughts/recommendations on which one I should take? In case it is helpful, I come from a civil law country. Thanks!

I have been practicing in creditors rights/foreclosure in PA & NJ for around 4.5 years. Due to the foreclosure/eviction moratoriums there is no work to do and I was furloughed. I am looking to change directions- what is the most logical next move?

For the past 25+ years, I've been a devops engineer, cloud architect and team lead on many projects. I would like to make a career move into IT Management (i.e. DevOps Manager, Director of Cloud Ops, etc.). When it comes to skills needed, what should my focus be on and how would that translate onto a resume? I would love to still be hands-on to utilize my tech knowledge.

Hi Fishes

WE-6Yrs

I was initially trained & was working on tool based tech stack- OpenText in CCM in my previous Org.
In my current Org I was put into Linux, Unix & Cobol with just a 5-10% usage of OpenText on top of it. My grip on OpenText has been ruined since last 2.5 Yrs. I am desparately looking for a change in tech stack. I have PowerBI & Cybersecurity in mind. Would like to get into something that will have avenues & opportunities in future.
I am open to suggestions & recommendations.
