Hi fishes,
Why TCS is so rude and self proclaimed kinda. I declined TCS offer last year as they were giving very less CTC. Now I got interviewed again with TCS and cleared all the rounds but they are not reactivating my ibegin portal for document upload since I rejected them last year...in this way u think they will never ever reactivate my profile.

Tough to say without more info Ie. Partner/no. of kids etc.
As for salary, I think ca. 200-250K CHF.
If I wear you I would use numbeo to compare cost of living. 250k per year is definetly comfortable if you are single , but will not be much left of it if you have child and a spouse.
To my surprise, Glassdoor shows senior manager salary for all big4 at 150K.
Got it. Contracting always give you more money.
Do you speak German and/or have an EU passport?
I will be transferring from a member firm, so visa will be sorted before I make the move.
If you expect to live in the city you will need deep pockets. Bear in mind that tax here varies not only by Kanton but also based on the village that you live in. My partner and I earn about 250 k between us and we do okay. We live about 30 mins out of the city by train. As an example, we moved from Kanton Zurich to Kanton Schwyz a couple of years ago. Our rent reduced by CHF 700 per month and our tax dropped by 1000 (we moved about 4 miles - Schwyz is one of the lowest tax Kantons).
It’s not at all east to compare the situation here with anywhere else.
Another metric for you. I came here for a 3 month contract. I clocked up 16 years here just before Christmas!
