Hello everyone!
Can anyone please explain the promotion process followed here and specially at LCCI? If there's any minimum criteria like X no of years in a particular level, etc. followed while checking eligibility of an employee?
And also - what's the hike/increment range usually at the time of promotion?
Eli Lilly and Company.
Any leads would be highly helpful.
Thank you!
I recently joined TCS but I was moved into very different project which was told during hiring. Also they told me for joining incentive but later after 65 days of joining they didn't give saying your business aproval got rejected. I really want to be with TCS but due to project dissatisfaction, I am looking for different job. I am not sure if I can leave the organisation soo soon(4 months) and it should not effect my carrier.

escalate the issue to the sr partner in your practice and get your lame ass manager put to 3mo PIP
Or say no, get fired, and make sure you still have the proof when you sue for wrongful termination?
@A1, pray you never find out
Personally, I’d think about taking the severance, but I’d ask if they can give you a week to think about it. The reason I’d take the severance is that what happened to you would make me distrust the company as a whole. What kind of company puts leaders like that in charge? It’s rough right now, but I think ultimately you’ll be happier elsewhere. Find a job somewhere else where you won’t have to worry about working with these jerks again.
I strongly recommend you contact HR and ethics so the firm can investigate and address issues, and for you please call an attorney for consultation. HR and Ethics are in place to protect the firm. A lawyer will protect you.
Go to a lawyer. That’s really, really messed up.
Its your manager's job to catch those mistakes.
I’ve been at the firm for a few years, the severance offered so quickly is highly unusual. PIP is step 1. OP you should get in contact with HR, ASAP.
If true, this sucks but I to P1's point there might be more to this. This is totally the Manager and Partners problem. No intelligent client is going to hold the more junior candidate responsible. The client holds the Manager and partner responsible. If true, this is most definitely grounds for escalation to HR.
KPMG7 people win wrongful termination suits all the time. But point about perception is true. Still would advise check with HR. I’ve seen these things be stopped cold in their tracks before.
Whats PIP?
@SC1 it would have been easier just to tell me 😂😂
@A1 Personal Improvement Plan. @OP - is there more background to the story? Happy to help but this seems to be unnecessarily quick escalation. Doesn’t mean it isn’t true but definitely out of the ordinary
Sounds like they were looking for an excuse to fire you anyway, since it appears that manager and partner are on the same page. Escalate to HR, file an EEOC complaint (at the same time) and let them fire your ass
This is classic - associate / senior associates are viewed as expendable. A perpetual machine - this happens all of the time
It seems that you are in a loose - loose situation.
Apologize. Take PIP. Start looking for job in another Big 4 immediately. Switch while you have the job. But things also depends on a lot of other factors which you did not mention on this thread.
Personally don’t think HR or senior partner will be helpful. And I also agree that it’s managers responsibility to proof check, etc, etc. But this won’t change the fact that your performance is tainted on papers - which will eventually haunt you later
A 1 month PIP? That is an incredibly short time for actual demonstrated improvement of the magnitude that makes or breaks a firing decision. It sounds like the client demanded heads roll and this way they could position it as you being let go with a slight time lag.
I would put all your energy towards an immediate HR escalation + job search. Delay giving them a response as long as possible while you do this.
so where is the OP after all these advices??
They have secured his phone
K7, the best legal advice is to get professional legal advice. Lawsuit would not be necessary or public if both sides settle and sign an NDA. If true u r the scapegoat for a partner f’n the client they want it NDAd as well. Get yourself a nice severance, take a vaca to santo domingo, and put some santeria spells on their punk asses. Peace
Seriously, something’s not right here - you absolutely should talk to the Ethics Hotline. If they’re doing their job, you’ll see some justice. Keep us apprised...
What level are you OP? If senior or below, managers / directors should have caught unless it’s something innocuous like a status update. Is it really just this one mess up that exited you from this firm
