After over a decade at VMware in sales, the environment has significantly deteriorated since Pat Gelsinger's departure. The touted EPIC2 values and commitment to prioritizing employees are nothing more than a facade. The product line, as well as development and engineering efforts, are on a concerning death march towards obsolescence. The reins have been taken over by an old guard from EMC, focusing on selling out and meeting quotas at the expense of customer satisfaction.

Pat Gelsinger has maintained a laser-sharp focus on Intel's product roadmap since he joined the company. Makes a salesperson's job so much easier.

Hello Guys,

I have cleared the TCS Technical+ Managerial round.
Now HR is looking for salary discussion. But I don't wanna TCS now as I just have 4 YOE.
I wanna simply decline the offer discussion or reject the offer.
I wanna join TCS later in my career at a Good position when I'll have 6-7 YOE.
Rejecting offer discussion or offer letter will impact? Will TCS block me for a lifetime.
Please throw sm light here.
SAP SD 4 YOE, INFOSYS
PS- I am joining PWC IN, Benglore.
