It's not bad to have a dress code. Helps maintain decorum. You don't see a TCS shutting down every few years for a reason.

If you think a company shuts down because of employees not wearing pant-shirts, then you are part of the problem this industry faces

I just can’t wait to get outta this organization. One of the biggest mistake I made in my life is being lazy and not working on my skills. Hence I’m stuck in this place for years.

It is a thing in most big corporates (employing >10k employees) And if you mistakenly wear jeans on these days, the glare you get from elder employees

No no, one of previous company, niche industry We had formals from Mon-Fri and Casuals on Saturday. The older guys dressed up on Saturday as if it was a party lol

I've said this before here and will say this again. There's a huge crowd looking forward to a job in WITCH and thousands of families depending on that 25k salary, and they will not mind following the rules. We grapeviners aren't their target group and it will only look like a pathetic joke to us. The ones starting out in TCS will someday end up big and let's wish them the best. Dress code isn't everything, and dress code has never destroyed anyone either.

Problem is that they want people to wear ties also and trust me ties are not the most comfortable thing even in AC office too . Dress code shows the thought process of the org , and the level of the maturity and business and product maturity , IT is about focussing on skills and money shots , Most clients would care for cheap resources and bug free products and not what there resources wear to work .

Formals aren't suited for Indian weather. It's just something we adopted after looks at the milords in London, Chicago, NYC etc all these guys wear formals and blazers also because it suits their climate. In India formals is a pain travelling in local, bus, sometimes walking on dirty roads will stain the shoes. First get weather and infrastructure like the west then copy the west

Exactly , Weather does not suit formals and infra is catching up , but no we need not copy West .

How're tattoos viewed at workplaces in '23?

I have plans to get a few on my fingers. A good chunk of my job involves meeting people (journo here).

What's your take on the acceptance of tattoos at workplaces and among people in 2023?
