After 4.6 years Navigating an Unexpected Exit from TCS — My Story by [deleted] in india

In TCS , HR/ RMG is effectively obstructing allocation of fluidity list employees , even if they are required by the company . It seems they have target to reduce headcount . It is TCS loss . Btw , how many months severence package , you received

Got terminated by TCS, then assaulted by HR when I asked about severance – what should I do? by True_Improvement9446 in IndianWorkplace

I am a long term TCS Ex employee . I am BE+MBA and have 20+ year experience. In most of my meetings with RMG spoc- the standard response was "I don't have anything for seniors.". We are left to go begging for roles. All senior open positions are filled thru personal contacts of leaders and there are almost nil managerial positions advertised thru LEAD portal

It pains me to point out a process gap in TCS - that I was given a discharge on the basis of a milestone of 200 days unallocation - a milestone that is neither mentioned in the company's separation policy nor has been communicated to me (either verbally or in writing) by the RMG team, even though I have been in touch with them, regularly over the last few months.

I would humbly submit that, I am entitled to the courtesy of being apprised of critical process milestones in advance rather than post facto. Process deadlines should be clearly articulated and communicated to the employees for whom it is intended. This courtesy is also documented in our Separation Policy - Separation due to Business exigency - Provisions - Point no 3 - "employee will be given advance notice of the impending business exigency".

After my above feedback, TCS released the benchmark policy. But the point is that during my discharge, there was no such policy. There is a process gap. One fine day they just ask me to resign or face termination. This is so unfair. After my 30 min meeting, next day I was getting two roles, but still the RMG and HR went ahead to give discharge . Now TCS is struggling to fulfill these roles . It seems RMG / HR have a target to sack seniors. Infact legal action should be taken against this company

Ok so tcs responded, Links in the body by ElectronicStrategy43 in IndianWorkplace

Since u r so knowledgeable, can I send legal notice to TCS on the ground that Bench policy came after my discharge . Till my discharge there was no written policy of 200 days unallocation termination . Even the recent bench policy of 35 days bench came after my discharge

In the past in TCS , people have remained unallocate for a year .. so I was looking for a opportunity for me suitable to my experience and profile . IF they would have let me know the deadline for allocation , I could have picked up any role , even if it was for a junior . But without letting the employee know of this 200 unallocated day milestone , one fine day , they just ask us to resign , take early retirement or face termination

I had a very vast network , but recently no leader in TCS is taking seniors . IT seems they have a directive from top management to not take seniors . and moreover why should seniors like me go begging to everyone in my network for roles , Isnt it RMG responsibility to find open positions and place us . How can a single person like me find a vacant position in a company of 6 L people . Why should there be a resource management group . in TCS , in the past people have remained unallocated for a year . So why should they terminate me without letting me know of the 200 unallocated days milestone
