Recently got a job offer from one of the big 4 companies and was wondering if now is a good time to switch. My current job is a dead end job with no scope for growth at all.

Any signs of Big 4 looking to lay off?

Hey Folks,
I recently got a job offer from a US based finance company. They do not have any subsidiary in India and outsource the IT half to a team here, which I will be a part of. The organization specified that this will be a contract based role, and that either party may terminate it with no prior notice.

Is it a good idea to join this organization?  The pay is very good, almost 4x my other offers, but I am worried about job stability and the perks i lose if I am not an employee.

Are contract based jobs a safe bet?

Cleared all the rounds and even sent the HR the documents they asked for. They also said I would have to relocate to Mumbai. However it's been more than a week and they haven't rolled out an offer letter. HR said that since they invested so heavily in IPL, they are trying to reassess their budget for this quarter, that's why it's taking so long.

Should I be worried? I have a feeling that I even if I get an offer they might try to lowball me/lay off later.

This is making me feel insecure in my job now.

Shaktikanta Das said the central bank's decision came after a comprehensive assessment of the Paytm Payments Bank's operations and was taken in the interest of the consumers.

Heard rumours that there are mass layoffs in PwC. Is it true can someone confirm?

Layoffs in PwC?

As everyone knows that zomato is now hiring 800 employees after two months of a mass layoff, and exit of senior profiles like VP and CTO.

Let me tell you the truth about the founder. He is an opportunist. He doesn't give a shit about the culture or any employee. The company is built on the death of many riders and cheating with low-wage workers.

Timing- Isn't it a bit weird that a company that did a mass layoff two months back is now hiring? Seeing that many employees got laid off from the top-tier company. It is a great time to employ smart folks as the hiring competition in the market is at its lowest. Or the mass layoff that happened previously was planned with the thought of hiring again next year with very little competition and desperate candidates. 

Layoff: In zomato, it's hire and fire culture. I have seen many of my friends leave even after performing well. Honestly, sometimes I don't even feel human. It's expected from employees to start their day early and go late at night. If you want to leave early (around 6 or 7), you should have a solid reason for doing that. Here code release happens late at night due to less traffic. So it's expected of you to be available all the time.

Incompetent Managers- I have worked with two managers here. Both know the existing system as they were once an IC building that system. The issue with these people is that they grew up the ladder because they were the only ones left behind in the team. They lack real-world system knowledge. I have previously worked at amazon, and I know the team lead level there. But here it's like jo ruk gaya vo raja hai. It's hard to work with these people as they lack proper estimations of the projects and at the end of the day. The ICs have to face the wrath of the product teams.

People who are planning to join the company. Please do join, as working 24/7 you would learn a lot in a very short period of time. Also, the culture is team dependent, so you might get a team with chill environment.

Reality check at Zomato

Founder

I have an offer from PWC with joining around July end. I have also gotten an offer from a startup in a role that I want. The pay at the startup is better and the role is also of my liking, but considering the market what should I do?

Should I join PwC fulltime?
