Fishies. How do you inform the recruiter and hiring manager that you are no longer aligned with salary expectations ? We’ve been going back and forward and after taking some time off and thinking about it, I am not interested in the salary they are offering. Most importantly that I do not want to burn any bridges especially the director of that department is my friend sister. The position is in industry and not consulting. TIA

Hi Fishes I am in a complex situation, please help me out..

I got an offer with TCS and initially selected joining date as Jan 2.. but current org released me in 1 month instead of 3 months.. I asked TCS HR and others for early Onboarding but they didn't respond well..

After that I got one offer and joined immediately. But now I don't like to work here as I have to go to office all 5 days mandatorily, also role is slightly new to me.

How can join in TCS on the selected date ?
Any possibility?
