Hi puys ..
I have been recently put into a project but I am not getting the allocation . The allocation may have to wait for over an year . What will be the implications ???
I talked to my supervisors in the company ...They told me it will be taken care of .
Implications??

dvchinmaya · January 22, 2013, 5:53am

@kaushikranjan Hi..Usually they will use freshers as shadow resources and non-billbale.Allocation really takes time.

kaushikranjan · January 22, 2013, 5:10pm

@dvchinmaya As someone who recently joined project what are the takeaways apart from the learnings. Are the ratings given half yearly or after 1 year...

dvchinmaya · January 23, 2013, 2:53am

@boombaat Hey , I have given couple of interviews including DELL , HCL ,IBM .

I have offer letter from DELL and HCL . They are giving me hike 55% hike .

I loved the CSC culture and everything is so good here . But i have finally resigned from CSC and have joining on 25 MARCH in DELL .

Therefore trying for TCS , as some of my colleagues have told me that it is nice company and lot of onsite oppurtunites .

I have 2 doubts :-

1) What is the expected hike in tcs ?

2) how to deal with salary negotiation {doing first time }

boombaat · January 25, 2013, 3:05am

@vrana95

No doubt, TCS is one of the biggest and best companies when it comes to IT domain. About the too many many onsite opportunities being there, is a true fact. All of it, including the salary hike will come with experience. The more the experience, the better it gets. So if you have 3+ years of experience, then TCS is a must try :-)

@dvchinmaya

Any idea about the package offered to Assistant System Analysts in TCS??

paridhi11890 · January 28, 2013, 4:26am

I have heard that sometimes the package is revised and increased at the time of joining... is it true?? I am from 2013 batch and have been placed in TCS as Asst Systems Engineer..

Also is it possible to change ur field from software to management or business roles like that of consultant or analyst?

Seniors please advice..

Thanks :)

Yes.It's true as the sane has happened in the past.

It all depends on which project you get.TCS has loads of support and maintenenance projects.For most of these projects,TCS associates play role as functional consultant/analyst.But it doesn't happen in all cases and also IT industry still recognise this experience as 'IT' experience with some exposure to domain knowledge.

But if you join TCS after completion of MBA,your role would be Business development manger,which is mangerial role.if you dont have masters degree,you certainly have to wait for somke years to get into 'official' managerial role.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the quick reply :)

Can you tell me on what parameters is the increase based?

Does it depend on the college name, performance in ILP or something else?

Also my current package is 3.15.. how much increase can be expected?

paps3535 · January 28, 2013, 6:28am

@paridhi11890

I think,you got me wrong.If there is any increment,it would be for all new joinees.There won't be any discrimination on the basis of college or branch of engineering.And I assume that increment is part of rationalisation process.
