Since I'm the youngest and talented face in the company, he see myself with high potential, so wasnt happy when I told him I wanted to leave the company to move back. Thus, he agrees with my new terms - giving me assignment in Sydney where possible or full expenses, accommodation travel while I'm on away-from-home assignment. And vice versa, I will continue to provide the client with the best-in-class solutions, independent consulting and professionalism.

This is the rat race of big companies and enterprises.
