I have accepted Infosys Offer Letter . If I am not joining Infy and joins another company, then is there anything like Infosys remembers it and will not consider in its Future Opportunities saying "You previously Didnt join our Organisation after accepting Offer Letter , So we are not considering your profile ahead " (Something like blacklist).
Has anybody accepted Infy Offer Letter and Have not joined ...and later got another Offer from Infy after say 6 months or 1 year and then Joined Infy ?

Rising Star
Cynical but honest: I feel very little at this point because I’ve seen it happen so often. I don’t think agency leadership thinks layoffs detract from wins in any way. At the end of the day I don’t think they feel any genuine accountability to keeping people employed at all.
Bingo
Feel like it's less about time and more about how much they've addressed. Personally I don't want to hear about wins until I've gotten the post-mortem on why layoffs happened.
I feel like they have addressed why folks were let go: Lost contracts we thought would be renewing due to funding cuts.
Do they think the pizza and cheap beer would help pay the rent?
This is a huddle calling out how many activations we’ve had for the first half of the year and how many media dollars were spent.
I ask for a massive training budget
I think you have agency leadership who don’t have a true strategy to prosper in the new world order of AI and Marcom. Their numbers tell them to cut headcount but they also know they have to maintain some sense of business normalcy to present a glimmer of employee morale hence the helter skelter nature of management actions. It will only get worse until they figure stuff out.
It’s a slap in the face. Just hold off on the celebrations until there’s something real to celebrate…aka a sense of stability and growth
