Now I got an offer of 16lpa in CTS for Automation Testing role. But once I started talking to friends i got to know that one of my frnd has recently been fired from CTS last year due t unavailability of project. Now i am scared as I m single child of my parent and i have to pay emi and handle my household. Please suggest

From my point of view for 7 year 6lpa seems too less. I think it's time to switch.

Yes I have heard same thing about cts they fire employees because of non availability of project.

I will say you can take cts offer and in notice period try to get more offer letter to avoid CTS.

anyway what's your current stack automation?

You must switch now mate , if tcs really cares they'll surely offer you a hike , with 6yoe you can get better offers what cognizant offered is just a tip , let us assume even if they fired there are way more companies out there with that requirement , no need to be afraid .

than it's too less for your yoe switch or you will regret later

Hi Gaurav, I think it's time now for you to switch. As you're having 7 years of experience in TCS, mostly after your resignation the company will try to retain you probably with a hike of 100% or more than that depending upon the requirement. If you wish to stay and believe the management you are working under then you should think of the offer, else you have the offer already in hand.

Hello Fishes !!

Cctc - 6.8 LPA

I have accepted an offer for BA3 band for 10 LPA (46% hike). Is this a good offer or was I low balled ? Wanted to know as this is my first switch so I cannot judge if this is a good offer or not.
I had communicated my expected salary of 11 LPA (fixed) during negotiations for which HR said she would have to ask the concerned team. I then said that I am willing to negotiate and was offered 10. Was this wise or should I have waited ?
