I am a new joinee at TCS as C3B and below are a few queries I got. Please help

1. As I heard it's difficult to move between projects in TCS, how can I make sure that I am getting a project that has good growth and onsite opportunities.

2. For a C3B I have a component called 'Perfornance bonus' (25K per month, to be paid quarterly).
How much of it, I will get usually ?

3. Any advices for a new joinee ? Please suggest

Don't worry much my friend. You dive first into TCS ocean, for sure you will start swimming comfortably later.

1. Unfortunately, no one knows this unless one has someone known already working in project. But you can talk to your RMG regarding your aspirations and on-site opportunities too. But totally depends on RMG.
2. Quarterly bonus at your level is being paid in full almost all the time but during my 3 years I have seen 3-4 times people not getting complete variable allowance. Upto c2 level every time people get 100% variable allowance. After that depends on organization's performance in quater which is good since last 1 and half year.

First be careful about RMG. Don't allow them to treat you as a fresher. Tell them clearly about your aspiration role, your expertise etc. Normally they don't care all these, some time they just want to push you for some project. So be vigilant. True, it's hard to tell about the project untill you start working and if your project fall under some vertical or unit it is very difficult to escape from that. Don't worry you will come to know everything later. Good luck👍
