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.

The new company I’m at now sent me an email from an email address that was HR@companyName.careers saying I was accepted for the position. They gave me paperwork to fill out and sign to accept the position
I fill out the paperwork and send it back to them and it goes through… then a few days later I go back to the email to say something else and I get this…?
Then today I got a check from the company In the mail to setup my home office, and it’s signed by someone I’ve never met before or heard of…?
What…..

If you like M&S topics, would actually recommend going for it. They don’t meaningfully restrict you in any of the practices (M&S, Digital, etc.), really. You can still do any studies you want for the most part—you just need to do some portion of your studies in the practice
Pros: m&s BAs get special mentorship/coaching and perks (budget to attend certain types of conferences, retreats, etc.), can still largely get staffed on whatever you want
Cons: usually need to do like 30ish% of your studies, if I’m not mistaken, with the m&s practice (though these are usually the “sexiest” studies anyway such as GTM strategy and stuff, so it doesn’t matter)
Thanks M2! I dmed you for another follow up question
IMO, go generalist. You can still de-facto specialize by continuing to work in marketing / sales across industries, but you won’t be limited in exploring other functions.
Thanks! Are the interviews going to be different between the two tracks?
Do marketing & sales, they tend to have some of the most interesting studies. If you do generalist you're likely to get stuck on a lot of very boring org/ops/finance
They will suggest ones in your area most likely, but you can just look at the M&S staffing log and message the people staffing other ones around the country.
I guess another follow up question would be - what would the primary reason be for hiring someone from undergrad directly into specialty practice - is it that they don’t want to consider me for the general BA or that they are actually in need of someone in MS?
There’s no special reason for it. They just probably want more M&S BAs. Plenty of BAs from all schools recruit for specialties as well as generalist roles out of undergrad. They are likely offering you the option because they thought your background might be a good fit and thought you might be interested
