If any company (service based) is not providing any project to any new joinee, does that mean they are planning to fire the person?

No one will go through pain of hiring if they have no project.
However if you are on bench for months, thats a red flag. Talk to Resource manager or HR.

Most of the service based companies schedule your interviews right from day2 .you will in danger zone if you cross 3 months on bench

Not exactly, I've seen some people who were on bench/assigned for more than 8-9months but still no one was fired.

See, if you are not a high paid resource then its not much issue
It’s important you look for a project - cz if at any time company feels they are not making good profits- people on bench are first targets to be fired, high paid resources are at high risk.

Normally its not much issue until there is recession or loss to the company

Hello Fishes,
I am much stressed.. it’s only been 5 months to join Capgemini. I joined in as cyber security consultant with good package.
However, the work I do the tricks, logics and solutions I share with team to apply in the project… all are of no use when discussed with the architect guy. The whole team rely upon the wordings/solutions suggested by him only. It feels like my skill/knowledge and experience is of no use.
I feel like what am I doing here….? Any suggestions please.

When the IRS (e.g., a RO/AO/Examiner) calls or writes a letter… How do you verify that it’s really the IRS and not a scam? I’m new to tax law and I’m worried that I’m going to respond to/answer a scam and give away client info (or my own tax preparer info). I don’t think my worry is unfounded due to the tremendous amount of tax/IRS scam out there but it would be nice to hear from some of y’all so that I’m not so worried about it…
