Calendar falls a bit weird this year but we get 4 firm days and I believe it will cost us 3 of our own days to make it a full break. They added mlk as a holiday so the net days are the same as prior years. I often work a bit part time during the “break” and bank the time. I’ve seen an uptick in COs dumping rfps due in early January.

I think we get most days off except two, so we have to use our floating holidays or PTO.

Hi fishes, I need some guidance.

I am currently into the SAP Security domain and I absolutely do not have any interest in it. I am planning to shift to development and have started on some courses on my own.

My question is, is there any future prospects in SAP UI5 and Fiori? Since my background is in SAP, I assume it will make a domain switch easier.

Or should I move into the JS-React path since there seems to be a lot of demand? But my worry is about my lack of actual work experience
