Poll, sort of… do you think Texas’ abortion laws and attitude will slow the big migration to Austin from Cali and NYC? Many are of a far left political stance I believe, so will they stand up to it or are they more talk than action?

A few years into a career/resume it better (or how important) for the future to choose a client with bigger clients vs local clients?

I want to get to a point where I can have more agency in where I work. I know there are other considerations but would local ones make future searches harder? Particularly when you had a couple (but not a lot) of decently known clients on your resume in the past?

I've always thought bigger clients/companies can help be a base for your resume.

Currently working at Citi (C10). Would be completing 18months by Feb'23.

1-Can I directly apply for IJP 2-3 week's prior or do I need to serve notice in my current project?
2- Also can I apply directly for C12 level if required YOE is matching?
3- Within IJP can I apply for outside India?
4- What would be ideal appraisal % I can expect considering team size is small and best performer in my current project.

Thanks

This is really random but does anyone else have a dog that is always moving their bed around and throwing pillows off of furniture? Before I started wfh, I used to always think my dog couldn’t really be dragging her bed across the room, but now I catch her doing it when she thinks I’m not looking. I say “no” when I catch her but she grumbles like leave me alone and continues to move it lol.

What's your take on Bezos going to space? I bet the Blue Origin team is having more than a few laughs at how qualified big boss is to be an astronaut. But then he's probably funded himself the best astronaut training money can buy, so 🤷‍♂️

I have 3 YOE as a Software Developer. I currently work as a React/Node developer making 87k per year (I know that is pretty low, my manager will admit it) He has made it clear that I am the most skilled developer on the team, and I am getting promoted to Senior Dev. I would like to know what I should be shooting to make? I really like my job and ideally don't want to move companies, but would like some realistic expectations for what I should be earning.

Hi boys & girls!
