Heard so many bad reviews about Nagarro's project allocation. Especially people from Automation Testing backgrounds are pushed into manual testing projects.
Second is that when the demand is not more from clients the client interviews get very tough to get into a decent project. Heard many are sitting on the bench for more than 3 months, and they are now looking out for another switch.

When building a new brand, who is the actual client? Who has the final say? Who should you really listen to if no one is taking the lead? The president of the company, the original owner, the financial money partner, the third party manager? Everyone seems to have a voice, but the main contact is the underling gathering and offering their own opinion, which strangely seems to be the most on point. How do you handle this type of situation?

The role is in FinTech
I’m responsible for strategy, comms and key partnerships for a bank product. It reports through Customer Experience but touches product, Ops. marketing. It’s basically a Project Manager role but more nuanced.

Anyone out there in a role like this? Any books. videos or even best practices to share?

I need some mental health advice/help. I have a client who is extremely condescending and rude. They are a bully. They make themselves feel good trying to make other people feel small. It sucks.

I know that dealing with clients like this is part of the biz but I've really let them get in my head and get myself down.

What do you do to keep your head up and not let these types of clients trample any enthusiasm to do your job?

So I think I understand why this craziness with GME is happening...but my question is does the GME craziness disprove game theory? The WSB group seems to be in a multi-player game where they’re all holding until it hits $1k; if they all collectively sell at $1k, sellers outnumber buyers and price craters. But if I know that, isn’t my incentive to sell at $999? And since we know that, isn’t it actually $998 (and this becomes recursive), so shouldn’t game theory predict they all sell now?
