I have seen in Wipro, guys preparing for upsc while being on long bench period (1-2yrs) and nobody cares what they doing and what are they being paid for..

I think if the companies need to cut short their expenses, they would start firing with bench people first, common skill people second and then those who can be removed at higher levels

They won't touch freshers or less experienced as they maintain some kind of a triangle structure and mass workers at low grade pay

Ideally you won't be on bench if you have niche skillset and new projects or CRs are available for work

Yah, even one of my friend got terminated today. He was in bench just from last 1.5 months

like

Yes I heard too.

Dude how much exp does he had I mean sitting on bench for 6 months is even possible I joined an organization on 15 Sept and my onboarding to the project was started on 16th so you see they don't pay you unnecessary..I just have 1 year of experience I switched as 1 wanted to change my domain ..No one can enjoy in corporate world if you are on bench for 2 month or more connect with ur companies resources management team ..

I agree. Take it from my experience. I was looking for switch for last 3.5 months. I was not getting calls as market was already slowed down and whoever was calling was not agreeing on the compensation where i was asking on the market standards. Then some calls were those where i didn’t want to go being service based. Now left around 15% calls which would be around 5-6 interviews. And this was all happening when i was working on project and was confident.
When you are in situation you would be waiting for project allocation as it would be the right choice and suddenly something like this happens then you are not prepared.
Have been into the same situation in past thats why i know the pain.
Anyways good luck for the job hunting guys.. don’t loose hope whoever is going through this.

P
didn't give even one client interview or even put in a project or face internal interviews in 6 months? Not believable

He was on bench itself. That project manager asked to first get it approved from your bench poc about this tagging then only we will onboard you. But afterthen he didn't get any response.

Hey everyone,
I have a phone interview with MODIS tomorrow for the role of Packaging Engineer, Remote. Can someone guide me to successfully get through it? Thank you. Appreciate the help.

I’m interviewing with the company although I have offer signed with another (going though background checks, so didn’t wanna stop before knowing 100%). Really love the process and the team, but unless something goes sideways with signed offer won’t be joining them. I have a colleague who is probably even better fit for the position, I know that she will enjoy the team too and would be happy for a chance to interview with them. How do I approach this?

I remember when I first started working on my thesis project. My adviser asked me to get some funding for it, but he didn't give me any advice about how to do that. He just told me that if I wanted money for my project, I'd have to go through some kind of committee process and submit an application for funding from them. Sure enough, after weeks of writing applications and waiting around for responses from the committee members (who were always too busy), I eventually got approved for funding!
