Will CTS follow TCS??

Not sure.. I can give you my view..
When was the last hike given by TCS? I am not sure but if it is was around April 25, then they are keeping a gap between their annual hikes

According to CTS, they have given the hikes only in Nov25 - atleast they can claim - so they can use this excuse to delay till Nov26 to complete 12 months gap

.

I think TCS last year provided September 2025

Yes we got in November 2025

Notice period people laughing in corner 🤣

My supervisor gave me 8hours of AWOL because I couldn't show up one day because I was under anxiety. I have gave him letters from psychiatrist,psychologist that I'm passing through this. He didn't care and gave me an AWOL. I want to leave my job because my department is very toxic but I don't want to leave having that on my records.
If I move to another job later on (private or federal) this 8 hours of AWOL will show up?

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us.

And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?
