Its a big question now , cause over open platform the image already defamed .

But i believe it depends on your project . WLB will differ with project allocations .

Yoe

9

Same situation but yoe is 3.5

Now a days 50% -100%hike is normal . Dont switch for only 30%

Yes but but how about job security ? Is Globant better than cognizant ?

No

Contrary to what the kids here bark all day, cts is still a good place to work. There is no job security issue unless you really screw up. Good company to work with. Just make u sure you are getting decent pay.

If you are going for insanely high salary, don't expect any hike or promotion obviously. This applies to any place. Also cts is too big to generalise. I think it was in 2019 20. They fired last band people. Don't worry. No company fires you as long as you are in their budget and you don't mess up.

But now no one has mentioned anything about the bonus and I checked my contract and no where does it mention anything about the bonus. Can anyone help me here. Who can i speak to?

Dear Colleagues,
I had HR discussion today where I asked for 60 percent hike. HR said they need to check with business if they can approve this hike. She said she will come back to me post discussions with business. My question is if they do not approve of the asked amount will the HR come back stating what is the best that they can offer? Or they would simply reject my profile. What would be the timeline for offer letter generation if approval is received?
