Hybrid vs WFH?
Hello Guys,
I joined Cognizant recently, the project interview calls which I am getting is not from my base location.
I have the location constraint, should I wait for the right opportunity or raise this concern to ADP team so they can look in to it?
As per ADP policy, one should not have any constraints and take the project as FCFS basis.

The pettiness is real
It’s real when it becomes your reality and one comment determines your overall performance and compensation
Happens a ton on consulting, and one of the primary reasons I got out.
I remember being an engagement manager- delivering a project requiring 8 hours of flights each way, doing proposals, and then getting docked for missing a Friday evening happy hour. So much happier since leaving
That sounds like retaliation wtf

Shake it off, as long as you weren’t in a promo year who cares. Never offer to do Bd work for that partner again.

If you want to stand up, then stand up strong have a 1 on 1 with the partner that wrote the feedback. Explain why you disagree, what it means to you, and why they should adjust it. If you do this in a non confrontational manner, it will work, and they will respect you for the ask.
Time to look for a new job. If it takes an inflated ego and a comment to tank someone’s bonus, I’m out.
Manager, Consulting and yes she is in my office and also the LCAL
She doesn't deserve you. Start looking elsewhere. Consulting feels like such a powertrip at times, especially when dealing with Partners.
Tell your counselor @op
What level are you?
What practice?
Is this partner in your office/region/counseling family?

This happens all the time. Did you say “no” right before the performance review? You never want it to be the last thing on their minds going into performance review season.
Not saying this is your fault - it definitely is. But it’s,... predictable.
Next time, say yes and leverage junior staff to assist
I would reach out to the partner’s boss. I would not let it go like that. Just request a meeting and you can tell him/her what happened.
If I were your counselor, I would tell your side of the story in the round table.

Cause you kind sound like Karen lol and i don’t think it’s an appropriate approach at all - I’d go through this with counselor first then my pillar lead to mitigate the impact instead of go full vendetta mode and reach out to ‘partner’s boss’.
Beyond just addressing what the OP should do next, how do we prevent others from being in the same situation.
Is this the culture we want to condone and be part of?
I think in this case the Partner did a bait and switch and stabbed them behind their back
To OP this seems like someone who would give good feedback.
Partner:
- Acknowledged OP letting her know before starting OP wouldnt be able to finish due to project work
- graciously thanked OP for their work
.. Then
- wrote review that said does not finish what OP starts.
I was thinking more along the lines of how do we call out Partners/SMs, and Managers who do this. How do we prevent them from doing this the future, how do we improve communications between parties etc.

Take it as a learning opportunity and minimize future work with that leader, not worth stoking it into a bigger fire
