Dislikes

Managers will always try to give you onsite lolly pop and in 80% scenario its a trap for employee. In most of the cases they are giving false commitment(80%) to employee. Even though you worked with so long with tcs they will not give you good hike or retention offer rather they would prefer to buy new employee with around market price or more than market price. Dirty corporate politics is also there but again it depends on individual how they are playing there role.

Got Offer from TCS!

Hello, I got 32L CTC offer from TCS as an IAM associate consultant. Is it a good package considering I have 10.9 years of experience and in IAM 3.6 years? Rest of the experience is in dot net. Also, TCS is considering 10.2 experience only as some process on their side. Please share your thoughts on the offered package and the experience part. Thank you in advance.
