Guys did you hear the big news???
Hi Guys, I am 5.5 years Java Developer and I have offer from JPMorgan Chase and Walmart .
Jpmc: 50% on current fixed + jpmc benefits Walmrat: 50% on current fixed + yearly bonus + stocks.
Please help me choose which will be better, mainly looking for brand value, work life balance and yearly hikes.
I tend to overwork myself and it’s really taking a toll on my mental well-being. I want to learn a lot and prove myself to my superiors so that they recognize me/see value. Now my work has a sense of dread to it. I watched my parents be workaholics growing up, so it’s all I know. I’m also goal-oriented and driven, so achieving a lot scratches that itch for me. But, it’s making me want to quit cause I’m burned out and depressed….im not sure what to do. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Did they have to spend a lot of money to be a part of your wedding?
Honestly, no. But that’s just me 🤷🏿♀️
I don’t care at all if we get presents or not. The intention is to bring together the people who mean the most to us to celebrate our marriage in their presence.
If they show up, bring their best wishes, mingle with other loved ones and amplify a celebratory attitude…that’s all I want. That’s it, that’s all.
If you additionally give a gift, great! If not, it genuinely won’t bother or phase me.
Same here. Nothing, not even a card. Same goes back to them though. No gifts for them. I am petty like that but it wasn't a backyard wedding. It was one with open bar, music, etc.
Pro
I got married this weekend and I’m surprised by the number of guests who didn’t give a gift (yet I guess). And no, these aren’t out of town guest and I didn’t have a destination wedding. A few of the guest are very wealthy too. I’m not expecting big gifts, but at least a card would have been nice.
I would be hurt, to be honest. It’s not about amount spent though. They could at the very least get you a card, bottle of champagne, etc.
In that case, I would also feel a certain way about that. Maybe they don’t know wedding etiquette, but as someone who cares about their friends I want to give them a gift at every chance to celebrate them. I would keep this in mind in your future endeavors with them, but forgive them for not having the ability to be a good friend to you. Not for them but for you!!
Yes, if past 3 month mark. Maybe they honestly forgot…which I have def left cards in my hotel room before and had to mail it a few days later.
Etiquette says guests have three months after the wedding to send a gift.
Also what Scrum1 said. Did you have a destination wedding? Were they bridesmaids? Etc.
