Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

I got H1B lottery but my project got closed.what is the probability I can go to US with that lottery??

I need some good advice. I have been working on a very weird project for past two and half years now. This project has not at all being in a proper way and feels like a classic case scenario of sucking up to clients to keep the business with them. But in this conundrum, I am suffering A LOT. 
My core working areas are SSIS and SQL Server and I have been trying expand my skillset to cloud platforms like Azure engaging in some proper Data Engineering roles. But I have been sole contributor in my role in this project and inevitably a very heavy dependency developed upon me over time and now the management is not willing to involve me in any project other than this.
I have been trying to get some opportunities laterally but since I have no hands-on experience in my "preferred skillset", no one's willing to consider. I tried talking to my managers and I keep hearing "It's a good thing that you have developed such good rapport with the customers" (which I have), "this project will end soon and you will get better opportunities once we close this project", "we will consider you for on-site opportunities". None of these promises have been fulfilled. I realized very late that I have just been exploited since I have been doing at least a three man job in the billing of one and they keep extending me on the project. Accolades are there but just on mailers and that too from customers, not my managers.
To add insult to injury when I received customer appreciation no one from the management even bothered to highlight it internally and they didn't nominate me for H1B unlike they promised. There is no incentive of any type- bonus, better project or onsite opportunities and I am struggling to find jobs within or outside the organization because of current market scenario and lack of experience. 
I am getting restless thinking about this and the time I am losing on this worthless project. There seems to be 
a huge disconnect between HR, management and employee. What to do???

Feels like I am stuck

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I’m a 3rd year integrated msc chemistry(5 year) student from NIT Warangal and I have an exit option after 3rd year also, i.e with the bachelors of Science degree and as of now I have decided to go with this. But the major concern for me is that my college won’t be allowing me for the campus placement.
I have done internships and projects in product domain.
I am looking for opportunities, so that I have a offer to join from May. Any idea How should I go about this?

Hello! My current org has processed H1B Visa for me. But at the moment there are no opportunities. I desperately want to move to US/Outside India. If I apply for US jobs outside my orgnization, will the next org sponsor my existing visa?

Hello! With valid H1B can I apply for jobs in US outside my org?

Hey guys, I'm stuck in an MNC currently without any real world project for almost half an year now. I've been building projects on my own and looking for a switch. Since, situation in the market is a little tight, I'm hardly finding any non internship opportunities for freshers. Kindly let me know of any sources or any suggestions on how to move on from here. Seeing my friends getting fired from FAANG co. and still not get any other offer makes me more disheartened. Please help.

Is anyone hiring freshers(2022 grad)?

Welcome to Moving Abroad's Private Community

I have received an official communication to initiate the process of L1B visa. I have heard rumours that companies initiate and help you in getting the visa but when it comes to actually sending you to US they delay the travel by 3 months citing budget constraints.

Anybody have heard or experienced this in their organisation? 

P.S. On the sidelines, I have secured and offer letter which is 2X my current CTC.

I wanted to hear from this community, what would you do in this case? Considering L1B rumours mighty be some strategy to retain employees.

Hey All,

I’m going to have meeting with HR regarding  PIP next week. There I need to take decision whether I have to resign and take 4 months pay or whether I have to go with PIP plan and perform certain tasks for 2 months what they will decide and evaluate.
I’m a bit confused what option should I need to opt.
I’m looking for jobs but didn’t receive any calls till now but I’m actively applying.

From many people I’ve heard that in PIP they are giving hard to achieve tasks and pressurising to resign else if got fail in PIP, they will terminate and will give termination letter instead of relieving letter.
What option should I opt , considering all the possibilities and current market situation?

P.S - I have 2 YOE in front end development 

Suggestions from experience would be highly appreciated and can help me.

Decision - PIP OR RESIGN?

Hey all, How are you ?
Well I am not fine, I am devastated and have no idea what to do with my life now. As I can't see any way out of this mess where I am right now.
I finally got an offer from a company where I have to join in 1 month but my current company is not allowing me to leave before serving the notice period of 90 days. Despite being on the bench for the last 5 months and still no hope for getting allocated with a project. Firstly, my manager told me that they'll give an early release if I find another opportunity somewhere. But now since I have got the job offer from a different company he denied it. 

The HR of the company where I have to join after a month told me it's not possible to wait for 90 days and he'll revoke the offer if I am unable to join in a month.

😓 my life is a complete mess now. Don't know what to do. I am literally crying every hour, seeing my career getting ruined. It was my mistake joining such a company where employees are not at all valued. 

It was difficult for me to find another job as I didn't have proper experience. I worked on a project for 8 months only and the project got ramped down. 

Now I don't have any choice. I feel like I am trapped for life and there is no way out.
Writing this post with watery eyes. Hoping to know if there is any solution to this trap.

I started my job search in last November, I was able to appear for 4 interviews and I got selected in all four but I never received an offer letter even after submitting all the documents. 😞 

I called HR and dropped so many mails, HRs never responded. 

I feel bad and feels stuck as my CV doesn’t shortlists. 

My timing/Luck like others is never with me.

Never got an offer letter

Asking for some suggestions

Hi all,

Recently, my father passed away. I have been working at TCS Kolkata Gitanjali park since 2021, and my salary is around 25k. Now, I have to take care of my home. I live in a PG in Kolkata, for which I pay 7k per month. It will be very difficult for me to manage my home and live in Kolkata on a 25k salary.

I asked my manager and HR to grant me WFH, but they refused. They said they would release me from the project. I am trying to apply to other companies, but I am not getting any offers. 

If any of you have suggestions or can help, please let me know.

Thank you.
