KPMG I cleared all the rounds of my interview with KPMG and was asked to provide necessary documents and fill a CAF form a week back and had a HR discussion too. I have requested for about 3Lakhs additional fixed pay since my current CTC has increased and HR said she will get back on this. It's been a week and haven't heard back on the offer letter. How long do you think I should wait. Please wait.

Hi All,
Need suggestions here. Please help me out. I was interviewed with IBM and got selected. Waiting for offer letter. Meanwhile got selected in another company and got offer too. Put down my ppr. Offer from another company is way beyond than IBM almost 22% more in terms of fixed. Now I’m confused that once IBM releases their offer then should I ask them to match with my holding or not ? Will they consider for negotiations? What’s your thoughts? IBM

I achieved legendary status at my firm several years back in the holiday white elephant. I was an associate and had a manager who had a great sense of humor. He would regularly pull pranks on us. One time, he sent out a practice-wide invite for a real demo we were doing and he included an actual glamour shot of him (full-Napoleon dynamite, with fist under chin and soft blur) and the absolute worst picture of me ever taken (fully washed out, awkwardly cropped so that my face looked like a blimp, etc). Sent it out to the entire office.
Well, for the white elephant I knew I had to do something worthwhile. To add to it, i had already put in for a transfer to commercial and was moving to a different state, so I figured I had to go big. I got on vista print and ordered a coffee mug, stress ball, and pack of stickers with his glamour shot on it. Put it in a nice box an left it in the pile of presents for our 60+ account team white elephant. My partner actually picked the gift, opened it in front of everyone, and lost it. Started handing out stickers. My manager was mortified.
I have been told that the coffee mug remained on her desk for 1 year and was re-submitted to the following year’s white elephant. My manager (now director) actually had to barter to win it back and (presumably) destroy it.
