Hi Fishes,
I had HR discussion with EXL Service for data science role. They are offering me:
Fixed - 18.5lpa(15 base ctc+ 3.5 practice premium)
Variable - 1.5lpa
JB-4L
I tried to convince them to increase in fixed and can reduce the jb part, but hr told leadership is not agreeing to increase the fixed part. Rather they increase jb from 3.5 to 4L. What should I do? Please suggest.
Overall exp - 4.5yrs, current offer from top product based is 18.05lpa fixed + 1.5variable with 1.5jb.

Finally found THE one, after over a year of searching and trying out at least 5 different ones!
A nice comfortable office chair.
https://ergochair.co/collections/chairs/products/ergonomics-mesh-chair-w-adjustable-headrest-and-armrest?variant=32511617597491
My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest
I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.

Def backoffice
I interviewed for a lead knowledge analyst position. If you like research and are in the technical side of things in your particular area, it might be a good place for you. It’s more of you becoming a subject matter expert that consultants can tap on for expertise depending on client needs. It is client facing from time to time but only when necessary.
If you’re coming from a consulting background, they may tell you right upfront they don’t need a true consultant. I was told to interview at platinion as that seemed more up my alley.
Sorry for the late reply. I was told mid-120k~ish. They require around 4 to 6 years of experience for this position.
While this is a decent salary, it definitely doesn’t compare to salaries that consultants make at BCG with that many years of experience.
I have been told, however, that it’s possible to switch over to a more client facing role, but not sure what, if any, salary bump you might receive. Regardless, if you think this is the right fit, I would say it’s worth it as the team is only growing from what I heard during interviews and a great place to foster your personal and profession growth (my brother works for BCG and he can attest to this, as well.)
It’s a research role. You may work with teams who are client-facing but your role isn’t.
