Upskilling good idea but the pay factor just keeps moving these jobs abroad. I remember my boss at Goldman used to say it doesn't need to be great just good enough will do. Which means just code, deploy and get the delivery done and we will see later......

I think that in this job market, job gaps are not a problem because everyone knows so many people have been let go or looking for work for extended periods of time. Also, freelancing isn't a "gap" per se. I think that explaining how you used your time will be beneficial to making you seem like a proactive and independently minded engineer

Hello guys, I am a ML Engineer by profession and have recently heard about the AI Centre of Excellence at TCS.

Had my annual review Friday (first year with the company).

Nobody under me has gotten less than a 7% raise in the past year. Considering promotions + counter offers as well, it goes as high as 25%. I don’t feel a 3% raise matches a “90% positive” review and plan to bring up the cognitive dissonance I’m feeling. Any other tips or advice to add?
