      Will i get the offer letter?
      I got selected for TCS digital profile and had my interview a few weeks ago. The interview was about 30-40 minutes. All the rounds happened in one go, project based, SQL and a dsa questions were asked which I solved in Python, also answered OOPs related questions in java. My question is how many days will it take to get offer letter from TCS and will joining date also come with offer letter? Thanks for ur time..

      Appraisal and salary hike is super difficult, if you have worked for product company previously then definitely you wont like tcs for some reasons. Try to join tcs at the time you wanna get stability in life. 3 month of notice period could be a hurdle for you to find a new job

      Oh ! I want to give zero rating if available. So much less salary in TCS, even a labor has more salary. No work and life balance. 7% salary hike is maximum. TCS runs mostly on Govt. contracts. Poor Management and Bad, unhuman behavior by management I experienced and heard from other employees in approx. all locations. Can't imagine this Tata brand might be so unhuman to employees.
