I recently joined TCS but I was moved into very different project which was told during hiring. Also they told me for joining incentive but later after 65 days of joining they didn't give saying your business aproval got rejected. I really want to be with TCS but due to project dissatisfaction, I am looking for different job. I am not sure if I can leave the organisation soo soon(4 months) and it should not effect my carrier.

Go for it! Now is the least risky time to march down an entrepreneurial route 😄

You’re a child, nothing to lose, go for it, real careers start at 40
You obviously don’t have overbearing parents... just have a plan b
Pretty valid risk. Most startups bootstrap to the tune of $30k+. Do you have that on hand? And are you willing to commit?
It’s your life, do what makes you happy. Most people in this bowl are money mad, so you will probably get push back here haha
True.
You will make me so happy if you do this!!!
I’m staying at my current role solely so that I can have the capital to go down the business ownership route in 4-5 years. Do it!
Controversial industry, but hunting / firearm goods. Family friend owns a small retailer and is retiring in the coming years. Would be looking to purchase and build from what he’s already established.
I would say if you can go PT at your job, minimal hours to keep benefits, do what you have to do and kick off your side business. This way you have maybe 20 hours you have to give your job (easily done in 2-3 days) and the rest to go for other opps. Cut the leash once you’ve found the thing that makes you happy (and $$ of course). Good luck and go for it!
100%.
Now is the best time to do it. If it doesn’t worm out you can just blame COVID for the gap in the resume. Worked for me during the 2009 crisis. Sold my company in 2014.
What kind of company?
Go for it dude. Honestly this is really hard to do the more senior you get in the corporate chain due to the opportunity cost of a safe and well off lifestyle.
I hope you do this 🙌

Go for it! I started entertaining my entrepreneurship whims around that age and now, about a decade later, through some ebbs and flows those endeavours are finally starting to become serious enough that I can entertain quitting my day job in a year or two.

Go. For. It. And write back and let us know how it goes.
I wish I'd have done it when I was your age. Go girl, do it!

I did it at 29. My company lasted 9’months before we ran out of funding. Was an awful time in my life. I learned a bit. The entrepreneurial cred gets me some respect from the partners and interviewers love it. But I’m in consulting now lol - best of luck to you!
What are you starting?
