The discrepancy between the time I spend making a pitch book and the time the client spends actually reviewing them is something I'd rather not think about

For every 30 pitch books you will prob see 10 that clients actually read, 3 that result in a live deal and 1 where you close a deal

A pitch to live deal conversion rate of 10% seems astronomically high

This post is an alert message for anyone joining the Johnson & Johnson EMEA account for SAP & had Rakesh Sharma for their Manager round.

He is nothing less than a con man & will promise you a lot to make you join the account. After that he will put you in testing projects. If you ask for a release, he will either not release you or release with a very bad rating and influence other project managers to not take you into their projects.

You will be left with no choice other than leaving TCS.
