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.
Tata Consultancy

It’s very low but did they tell you that’s their max? Like will you get OT after 40 hours? Normally I’d say F that, but maybe if you get in now and they keep you through March it’s worth the steady work. Plus it’s not pharma and that’s worth something, too.
@SC1 so you know for a fact that an agency booted their recruiter for low balling creatives? Sounds like fiction. Though I’d love to think agencies value creatives like that, I’m pretty sure that’s not the case.
I’ve been asked to lower my rate several times now. I think it’s the market. But try to get 800 or 900 if you really need the job.
Take it and see if something else better comes along. At least money in your pocket! Companies have no problem cutting midway so why should you feel bad to leave if something better comes up. Or use it to negotiate back to original rate. They won’t want you to leave once you start.

It’s low but at the same time, different agencies have different rate models.
If it’s a longer term commitment they might also soften the blow (make it up in volume) but even then... you should be at at least $1000 (again, generalizing the market).
It’s not typical to lowball because of awards.
