In all honesty the βΉ is an elegant symbol, ironically designed by a tamil himself, and should be mandated all across the country.
Something like a velvet revolution. Sad its not gonna happen.
We are stuck in a bad marriage with the North and the Central govt.
Let me assure you - most South Indians I know feel this way strongly.
We just cannot express it in public. Stalin is just brave enough to state things.
But on a very serious note, as a country where are we heading?
Not kidding. This was the actual thesis. The guy got a fellowship abroad, I think.
Also it's very difficult for non nlu student to get through it.
They mostly prefer nlu or Jindal. That's very unfair I know.
They have 100s of interns every month. HRs don't even bother to evaluate every single feedback.
It is mostly done by reference.
My suggestion to you because I also faced a similar situation.
Please stick to some good boutique firms for long time.
Gain experience and then go into these top tiers.
I don't want to be just another intern so i don't think my question is silly.
I currently am an A2 in a tier 1 b&f team in Mumbai - I am currently the POC for all major clients and am suffering from an absolute loss of a work life balance and in the last year I have logged over 2000 (yes thats correct) billable hours.
I am at a loss of words to describe the sad stuff of affairs in my team where there is little to no review of my work product, Im answerable directly to the clients and even on my days off I am expected to take calls inspite of providing a handover. My partner refuses to come on any negotiaton calls and my team has no SAs or Counsels. Yet when it comes to being adequately compensated for my role, my partner keeps telling me that this is the bare minimum in my field.
Can anyone please suggest b&f teams which actually have some sort of structure where your work is being supervised or whether the client expectations are not directly on you - I am more than comfortable switching to a smaller set up but I cannot deal with this pressure anymore
- Frequent cha be on PhD regulations
-Frequent change of doctoral committee, with each committee having their own way of running things
-Supervisors being too busy and not providing any feedback on time
- Massive backlog of people pursuing PhD, some from 2014 and 15
There are other systemic issues, but I don't wanna dox myself. Check the other discussions on NLS PhD on Legally India.
Tier 2 Partner- 60- 65 lacs Fixed- upto 40-50 percent of bonus.
PQE and years of experience for above- 8- 10 years average. Incremental increase in income is much more than in a company in coming years.
Even Jamai Raja gets his suits from there!
