I do love my job, but I do not love having to go to work, if that makes sense. Since I do have to work, I don't mind working in logistics.

I like it. I'm definitely not passionate about it. It's just a job for me. Sometimes I think about going to school again for something I'm a little bit more excited about, but the money is good.

I do not exactly love my job but I don't hate it either . It does get pretty hectic most of the times but I feel like supply chain would be worst then my current job. So ill be passing on it. Anyone else ?

I’m pretty much the same here. Don’t hate but don’t love it.

I love my job because I love my coworkers. We all work well together and the environment is light and friendly. My supervisor is very supportive and has great management skills which I appreciate. I really am pretty happy with where I am now and have no desire to make any career changes right now.

I kind of just fell into this role, but I don't regret it at all. I've been learning so much about business and the back end.

Could anyone please share some insights about work at the AI COE at TCS? How's the team and how's overall growth in terms of skills and payscale? Are there any drawbacks of joining AI COE?

It’s very discouraging to continuously receive these rejection emails. With 9 years of supply chain experience, I am not sure why I would not be able to at least get an interview for entry level roles that require no experience. Not just this one pictured but others as well. I’ve applied to maybe 60 positions since May, both mid level and “entry” and no interviews. I’ve had my resume professionally re-written twice. Not sure where the disconnect is. Anyone else going through this same thing?
