I joined TCS 3yrs ago and since then I couldn't switch. I am planning since last year March but actually not able to work on it. Even I couldn't apply actively. Currently I am involved in a role which has nothing to do with development and I feel bit less confident. So I want to know why it is so hard to leave? Does everyone feel same? Is this ecosystem somewhat responsible for this?
6 YOE joining 5th company next month.
Never let a retard shame you for job hopping.
Job hopping is one of the fewest ways to attain some economic mobility in this shithole country.
For a corporation understand that you're a fungible resource. They'll throw you under the bus once you've outlived their utility. Always lookout for your own personal interest first.
Shithole country? Ok all the best dude!
There's literally shit on every street with open manholes in every city. Technically accurate 😂
I've switched 4 companies in 5Y 🤡🤡
Interested in knowing the journey. Can you please tell me about it? Company, Role, Package.?
Those are not anyway aligned with your question bro that's why I have avoided it in the first place.
My take; yes the ecosystem is 'somewhat' responsible for sure, but you are your own responsibility! Play wisely.
Am not asking to go haywire and job hopping like crazy but should be calculated risks at least in initial years by the time you cross 35, you won't have any energy/ wish / fire to do so!
So?? do while you can. ✊🏽
I feel the same Reasons
Not to be harsh, but excuses in each point. You gotta do this for yourself!
100% agree.
I’m exiting WITCH in a few weeks 🥳. AMA
What's your tech stack and yoe?
2YOE. Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, HTML/CSS lots of AWS exposure too.
The reason is you don’t want to be out of your comfort zone. People are able to switch companies just ask yourself why you can’t.
I want to switch so badly. But the 90 days NP making it hard.
Get some leverage (offer) and negotiate? 😅
Get an offer from someplace considered slightly above WITCH tier, one with tonnes of employees. They usually are okay with 3 months, then within that timeframe get more offers as you’re approaching the end.
3 yrs experience here also. I know it's very hard. I kept losing confidence everyday as I am in support project. I have been contemplating resigning since December 2022. Last year in December I decided to resign. Started to look for a new job but due to NP couldn't land many interviews. Every week thought of resigning. Said to myself that I will resign today, then next day the same thing. Gathered courage and resigned last month without any offer. Felt a bit of regret at the starting but now I feel light as a feather. Hopeful for future and thankful to myself for taking this step.
I've switched my first company after 4 years. The thing is, you've to come out of your comfort zone and do anything (be it coding / preparation) consistently because consistency is the key.
You'll never be 100% prepared for an interview so keep preparing and once you feel confident, just start giving interviews. You'll succeed 🙋♂️
because of the slave mentality
Hello everyone,
Today marks the completion of my three years at TCS, and I am at my wit's end. I urgently wish to switch to a new company as soon as possible.

Is there a way to come out of current company, since notice period is 90 days, not able to get job offers easily(almost nill), every recruiter is expecting joining within 30 days. Not able to manage finances with current salary and at th...
There is a great insecurity in service companies that we are not competent enough to switch to other companies . Especially TCS.
If you were such a person in the past and if you managed to switch companies, how did you do it? What tech...
