Hi All,

Could some one help me in understanding how the designations are defined in TCS and how long it takes to move from one level to the next (especially from ITA to Assistant Consultant) also how much salary can someone with 5 years of experience expect in TCS?

Also can some one provide the same information for Infosys/Wipro.

i believe designations are defined in all software companies as SE(Software Engineer), PA (Program Analyst), PM and so on. i dont think it will be different in TCS or Wipro or Infy.

also, promotions generally take anywhere between 2.5 to 4 years between roles, so it should take an SE around 6-7 years to become a project manager.

no in TCS the designations are like Assistant System Engineer, IT analyst, Assistant Consultant, Associate Consultant.... just wanted to know how long it takes between these designations and what is the salary variance

It normally takes between 3 or 4 years between designations, unless you are an extremely high performer or you and your PM are booze buddies . Truth be told , nobody cares to give you a promotion unless you fight for it .

P.S : I don't hate TCS as much as you think i do

whatever the names be buddy.
either an SE, PA, PM or System engineer, Project lead and Project manager or even as u have said an IT consultant, Assistant and associate consultant, they are are the same hierarchy. Level 1 codes, Level 2 analyzes and Level 3 estimates.

in the companies like TCS, Wipro and Infy, the salary for a PM is around 8-10 Lakh PA. i am not the authority on this, so don't hold me for any wrong data. the time duration between designation is 2.5 - 4 years

Well 8-10 lakhs for PM. Sounds good!

How about System engineer? Analysit? etc.

Thanks.

systems engineer' pay is slightly on the lower side. about 3-4 LPA. A system analyst would get about 5-6 LPA. infact these pays are what makes ppl complain that the top 3 IT service companies of India have pathetic salaries

What about some who has 5.5 years experience and is joining as a Business Analyst (ITA). Firstly is ITA the correct designation and secondly what pay package can be expected TCS/Infy/Wipro.
