One is global, one is local. Jokes aside, I’ve heard local focuses more in sales while global is more delivery.

Within Global, the team you are in also makes a difference.

Global has both sales and delivery and includes regional career paths as well as capability specialization options. I’m local considering a transfer, so I’ve had a lot of convos on this - my global counterparts seem to get a lot more investment in training and have opportunities to work on the most transformational projects, which don’t often get sold in my market. I think it’s the difference between being part of a team that focuses on and prioritizes Salesforce exclusively (global) versus local that spreads investment across capabilities and doesn’t necessarily prioritize Salesforce.

Hi fishes,

Cognizant- 21L fixed and 1.5L variable
PWC - 22L fixed

This is for a guidewire role.
Which is a better offer? What would be a good option for growth wrt role, salary etc.
Also, PWC claims to offer variable based on their fixed CTC based on the ratings.. is this true ? How much is the avg percentage given?

Thanks in advance!

I love international tax (in core) and don’t mind compliance at all but it’s been nearly 100% of what I do. Any ways of balancing out with more structuring/planning?

Some background: there’s only 3 of us IT locally and with the departure of our SM, the little structuring/planning work I do see will probably dry up when they leave. Do I network with other bigger offices to pick up that kind of work?

Need advice!

Last year when Covid broke, I received a couple of interview calls but ignored them as I felt the organization kept me at work when other companies cut short their HR staff so I should be with them even if with no appraisal.

How have you combated your fear of rejection? I fixate on such small things as when my friends, for example, reject plans I have made. This definitely makes me more averse to putting myself out there and makes me ruminate on past perceived failures, which are clearly not good for personal growth

So recently my SO has been accusing me of being in control of when we are intimate (sex and cuddling). She says that every time she wants to I say no - and whenever I want to - she says yes. So it's by default doing whatever I want when I want. It's a gross exaggeration of what's happening - but does anyone ever deal with something like this? How do you say no to something like that - without your partner thinking you're just looking out for yourself or you're controlling?
