Hi Everyone,

I have 16 years of experience in IT and currently work as an Engagement Manager/Project Manager. I recently cleared an interview at TCS for a role in the Cybersecurity field and need your advice on the following:

What kind of salary increment should I expect when joining?
Which role should I request that aligns with my current responsibilities and experience?
What would be the equivalent designation I can expect at TCS?
Your insights would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
TCS is not known in general to offer very generous hikes. 30% hike is the norm there.
If cybersecurity is one of your major skills, and you are looking for a premium package, you can look beyond TCS. Try to look in software companies (and not services) that have key cybersecurity roles.
But TCS has other positives such as insurance cover, job security, etc.

thanks for your response

@op how to get a job as cybersecurity consultant?

How much are you currently withdrawing and how was the interview ?

Should be technical manager /associate director level of role , during interview they might have cleared the role responsibilities ? TCS is good but can't rejoin , onsite opportunities are there in Usa , australia
