Partners who were asked to leave their firm, what was your severance? I’ve heard anywhere from 6 months to 1 year with retention of pension

Hi Fishes,

I have attended two interviews with cognizant for the same role. From that, I have got an offer letter from one panel and I am discussing with the HR about to make some salary revise.
Unfortunately, the second panel also processed my profile and it got short listed and they come back for a talk to process the offer letter. Now the first panel HR called me and asked about the second process why it got happened.
Does this results in any drawback for the offer letter i have got already?

I joined Capgemini on 15 th September. But didn't receive salary. Can someone please help on this. When can I expect that.

I am actively looking for a change from Academia researcher to industry. I get job interviews in a big company. It has been in the 4 rounds for technical interviews talking to hiring manager, her peer, her boss. Yesterday was the 5th round talking to the HR director. I thought it was to negotiate salary. But it was just an conversation talking about who am I, career goals, questions etc. What is the point of this conversation? Will this impact the overall result? Anyone experienced this?

How much does a senior cloud security consultant make at EY?

What benefits should I be asking for if I’m leaving 401k match company with good stock purchase program?

I’m in considering relocating looking for high income low tax city.

Look for opportunities in other consulting firms currently hiring. Anyone hiring for someone with 3.5 YOE of which 1 year is of consulting for a big healthcare organization!

My company allows contributions to both traditional (pre-tax) and Roth (post-tax) 401k. Is it better to split my contributions between the two? For example, I could contribute 3% to Roth and 3% to traditional (my employer matches up to 6% total but that can only goes to traditional)

Hey fishes,

I am currently having 10 LPA with around 4 YOE in React Js.. I am expecting for a 16+ LPA.. Is it the right time to switch?

Got an offer from pwc in the data privacy role.
With 13.5 Lpa currently i’m at 12 and made switch on march.
Though my current company is an mnc but not that big and no work pressure is there, amazing work life balance. However, there is little to no learning and its very slow, the project is just starting and the client itself is not clear what they want. Do you think I should switch just because its a big 4. Please help me decide. Yoe -3.5

Has anyone who's worked in HR, Finance, or another role with visibility to compensation information been able to use that as leverage for salary negotiations?

To put it bluntly, I know certain people with less experience and a lower performance rating are getting paid more than me due to my role working with payroll data. I suspect this was due to the fact that I did not counter offer when I accepted this role, which was a few months ago, and now I regret it.

Accepted job offer with higher salary, but after cost of living adjustment it’s turning out to not be a raise…struggling with this now. How bad would it be to rescind my acceptance?

New start coming out of undergrad - other than maxing out 401k contribution to 18.5k in the year, what other low hanging fruit should I get? (I.e. I’ve heard of a Roth ira but not sure what it is)

I’m investing all my retirement (401k, Roth IRA) in a s and p500 fund (FXAIX). Thoughts on if this is wise in the long run vs just using a target date fund?

Does anyone here browse YouTube videos for tips on running your practice? New legal software to try? Nuances in argumentation, deposition or trial skills, etc? IF so, how do you search for content? Do you have favorite channels you recommend (even if they happen to be yours)? We are thinking of starting a YouTube channel giving practical advice for practicing lawyers. We want to be value-added - and there is not too much competition in our state. Thanks for your thoughts!!
