What is the starting salary for a tax senior? 😅
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.

They were upfront with the salary and the range. If you continue you are essentially telling them that range was fine for you. If you get an offer, weigh it versus the “dream company” perspective.
Thanks! They asked me up front too knowing we were far off, and at the time I wanted to continue on so said it was fine. I would take it in the range since it’s a dream company, but figured I’d see if I can go back to negotiate after already “agreeing” to the range. (If it even gets to that point)
How far apart are you?
Here’s the problem, there’s usually no problem trying but you have to be realistic about what you’re trying to get. If you’re too far apart it’s just wasting everyone’s time.
Hence the question how far apart you are. If you’re 20k off maybe you can do something. A few thousand base extra, maybe additional stock, signing bonus, hell even some extra PTO.
If you’re 60k off, we’ll that becomes a problem.
Those numbers are pulled completely at random btw. Adjust using your best judgement.
I would look at the TC plus benefits and see if you would actually be losing money
