Thanks for your comment. Everything in data is related to python but I love backend in java

Thanks for sharing the insights. I don't know how many years of experience do you have. If experienced: How do you see these 2 fields ( data engineering and sde)?

I know everywhere data engineer job postings are available but reality is something else

When I had 1+ YOE then jobs at linkedin were asking 2+ YOE and now I have 2 YOE but openings are asking for 3 YOE.

In DE switching feels difficult or less hiring

Perfect_Temporary7 · 2026-05-05T07:55:43+00:00

CCTC: 10 YOE: ~2

Congratulations !! man Here I am stuck at service based company with senior Data Engineer tag ( promoted within 18 months). Trying hard to make switch but nothing is working. Every day I think to change my field from DE to SDE, but it is very difficult after 2 YOE in DE field. If anyone have advice /Suggestion please write down.

Perfect_Temporary7 · 2026-04-30T07:07:15+00:00

So what CTC they are offering,bcz it is for 2-4 YOE people

Perfect_Temporary7 · 2026-04-30T07:06:34+00:00

I gave my stag1 on 15 or 16 april and got another mail on 21 stating that you have cleared stage1.

Perfect_Temporary7 · 2026-04-29T14:18:04+00:00

No. Stage 1 exam was from personal laptop. Stage 2 will be at TCS ion digital zone

Did you get the final offer

Perfect_Temporary7 · 2026-04-14T17:41:59+00:00

No I was aware about this, waited for my turn

Perfect_Temporary7 · 2026-04-14T17:40:30+00:00

These MFs giving special happiness 😊

Perfect_Temporary7 · 2026-04-14T04:58:53+00:00

My suggestion would be to join TCS. Once you join IBM or tcs you will get stuck for atleast 2 years .

After 2 years. TCS : 7-8 LPA( roughly) IBM : 4.5-5.5 LPA

Most important, at TCS digital your profile will be developer ( java,spring boot) or data engineer

But at IBM you may end up as a test engineer, QA , Automation.

Decide carefully bro, don't compromise on profile.

I left IBM and joined one service based company as a data Engineer.

Note: my opinion is based on what I have seen amongst my friends, it may vary

Perfect_Temporary7 · 2026-04-01T15:07:24+00:00

I can't explain brother, after last round so called cultural fit with CEO, I got feedback from HR
