One get satisfaction on providing basic infrastructure to country. Team spirit up to Divisional unit.

Dislikes

Too much political interference, non engineering responsibilities takes most of your quality working time. Sometime personal ego and intrests jeopardize team working. PWD officials spend very less time for planning and estimation which is entrusted to technical staffs like surveyors and drawing staff. Higher officers tend to become track minded.

Work Details

Rural road construction , road maintenance plans, e procurement, contract management.

Seeking advice on current job

Current Job Situation: I’ve been working at TCS for over 2.5 years, with a total experience of 4.5 years. My salary is 9.6 LPA, and I work with technologies like Casper framework, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSP, Java, PL/SQL, and JBoss. While I have good job security and flexibility, I feel like I’m working with outdated technologies and have a lot of leisure time, which is affecting my motivation. Concerns: 1. Outdated Tech: I’m worried that working with older tech will limit future opportunities. Should I stay or move to a role with newer technologies? 2. Salary: Is my current package competitive for my experience? What salary should I aim for if I switch? Seeking Advice: What modern technologies should I learn to stay relevant?
