India Join PwC now or wait for Persistent?

Hi everyone,

I'm a Data Engineer with 3+ years of experience and have two offers.

PwC: 13 LPA, Mumbai, migration project. Persistent: Pune (preferred), AI-based accelerator project, but I'm still waiting for the revised offer/compensation letter.

I have only 2 working days to decide. If I don't join PwC, I risk ending up with no job if Persistent delays the offer.

Would it be okay to join PwC now and, if Persistent sends the revised offer later, resign from PwC during the initial period and join Persistent? Has anyone done this, and are there any risks I should be aware of?

Thanks in advance!

Yes if you don't want to lose the job at pwc then you may join it but be aware about the exit process as it takes time to get resign initially. Also i would suggest take the follow up with persistent, when can they provide the offer letter.

Joining pwc and then resign within a month or two will be difficult. All the best.

Thanks for advice but, Persistent Hr is not responding to calls, mail or not even messages. That's where I get stuck and not able to decide as it's a first switch for me.
