Hey ZSers,

I have been selected into ZS for the BTAC role under CCM(Customer-Centric Marketing). My YOE is 3.8 in Cognizant, and the domain is ETL, DW, cloud(AWS).

My question is, ZS is giving a great package compared to what I have in Cognizant (Above 100% hike), and Cognizant is ready to retain me by giving somewhere 50%-60% hike. Will ZS be a good choice for me to switch? In terms of growth, technologies, work, pay. Or should I accept what cognizant is giving and get retained?

• Growth wise ZS is way above Cognizant
In ZS you will have 35 CTC in next 5-6 years and if you grow well and things go well at more senior level ( you can touch 1 Cr CTC in next 12-15 years)

• Technology wise ZS is not that cool. Not sure what BTACs use bdw majorly ( as I am a BOAC)

• Work wise - Its majorly pharma client at ZS, which is one thing in case you like variety and different types of exposure

• Work hours /WLB will take a hit at ZS. Expect ~9.5 - 10 working hours on an average and ~11 at the start to quickly ramp up

• Pay for work is there at ZS and the journey is rewarding if you stay for a slightly longer period

Hey, Thanks for the valuable response. It will surely help in making my final decision.😊

Career growth and progression is good but again it's a subjective question. ZS pays reasonably good in comparison to peers.
WLB can be a concern but that depends on your current working hrs in Cognizant

Hello everyone, need a help from you.

Previously my HRA amount was 96000 per annum so I was submitting a rental agreement of full hra without giving pan card details of myself and first party.

Now I have recently joined a new company and here hra is 2.7LPA.

How can I claim the full hra amount? I live in a rented house where agreement is between owner and my dad. Also owner will not accept for a fake agreement too.

Any other alternative do I have to claim HRA? Your inputs are welcome here
