Hello Fishes,

I'm currently serving my notice period. LWD is on 06-Sep. My manager said that he will try for an onsite opportunity with other projects like the UK or europe as he doesn't have any onsite (US) opening in the current project. Yesterday he said he found a UK project having an onsite opportunity and said that the respective manager will contact.

I'm holding an offer for 26LPA with 8.5 YOE with product based company.

I really confused to make a decision. Pls help
