I'm working for a client in TCS. Got better offer from lti mindtree.
I resigned, my manager asked me if we can provide onsite, I asked for Canada, she said she can initiate. Visa may take like six eight months.
Can you please suggest how I can be assured that they will really send me onsite? I'm not sure how to ask for guaranty? Please suggest

There is no assurance. The best you can do is get that on a mail and if possible start with the process of initiation. I was in TCS and they sent me after I took my paper back. A friend of mine was also promised but was not sent due to changed requirement. Not everything is in manager's hand
I think I need not to answer the question you clearly summed it up.

No assurance and onsite is something TCS promises everyone who resigns. Am not saying they are lieing . But opportunities for onsite are very limited and even they cant promise anything.

Then it depends on how much trust you have, how much increase if any they can give now, what is the new offer etc.
Please consider switching. I have a sister in TCS, she's there for 6.5 years still waiting for onsite.
They have matched her holding offers and retained get though
Dont get retained for onsite promise which may or may not happen. It's not in anybody's hand depends on the future vacancy in onsite which there is no guarantee based on current scenario. My colleague got retained for onsite promise and finally manager tried but couldn't make it happen.
If you don't like to join mindtree , try searching for other companies. You will get for sure since you serving notice period.
No email. But no use of email when this is not something under manager control. You will have to wait for project eventhough you have got VIS considering recession on going. Manager may even change after sometime . Anything can happen.nothing is certain as of now

Agree with people stating that no one can guarantee. However see the overall project set up, how often people are getting opportunities and are people frequently traveling even if not your team, the adjacent teams. That might give some indication of the possibility.
Just one month back they asked me for Mexico onsite even when I didn't resigned or asked. One of my friend from different team but same client went to Canada onsite this march only.
This is really difficult to choose as everything depends on if then.
Don't waste time in such things
If you want go to Mexico
But Canada is surely a lie

Don't believe in TCS but at the same time, i would not recommend you to join LTI Mindtree as there are not much projects with more people in bench. Better look for other companies.
Sure, thank you for your suggestions, as I have 90 days notice period I was not able to get many calls, hope now I will get many chances.
