Been on a project for 2 weeks and thinking it’s not for me. The manager is kind of rude when I ask for help/direction, but he always says to ask if things are uncertain. He always has this condescending attitude and just keeps telling me that he expects more of someone at my level, C. I just keep feeling anxious that I’m not meeting expectations and feel reluctant to ask for help. Anyone in the same boat?

There's Loop feedback. This gives you an opportunity to review anyone, including your Manager. I'm a Manager and try to be as team-oriented, as possible. Regardless of level.

Same boat. Manager just severely lacking any type of EQ or appropriateness in when/how to provide feedback (giving feedback in front of clients or peers). I connected with the SM on the project and voiced my concerns and treatment by the manager, turns out they expect more of the manager when it comes to leadership and this type of treatment is not ok. Also connect with other C or SC if they are getting the same vibe from the manager, and having them bring it up with the SM. Voice your anxiousness around expectations by tying it back to your goals so it’s not coming across as just butt hurt feelings but rational reaction to unclear expectations. I used this opportunity to really connect with project leadership.

Try asking for help also with other C or SC who has more time and not this direct report relationship. You won’t have to worry about your performance review with them. As a M, sometimes it can be that you want to give support to your team members but new hires just require so much hand holding and you simply don’t have enough time and wish that they had more experience. So I’m not saying your M is treating your questions the right way, just sharing an alternative approach. If your M can’t help you, find someone else that can help you decipher your M’s message (ideally someone that has worked with him/her) or someone that had been on a similar type of project. You can’t expect your M to guide you every single step of the way. You need to find your own support system.

Dont be shy to ask for other people in your offering for help, especially the ones that have been with the firm for longer, the ones that can show you the ropes. Doesn’t even have to have content knowledge of the project. Good luck navigating and build up that support system!

🤖 Where is TCS HR ?

I observed No involvement of HR in screening call & scheduling technical interview

Is it common with TCS process ?

#1 Got 1st call from project manager (instead of hr) and he is interested to know compensation part.

#2 Got 2nd call for technical interview without scheduling interview.

I was uncomfortable as in 1st call to discuss compensation with project manager ( no authentication, is he really manager).

On the spot technical interview 😁
