Are personal laptops allowed inside TCS campus?

Hi. New joiner here. I wanted to know whether personal laptops are allowed in places other than ODC like cafeteria or library etc. How should I utilize my time on the bench if those aren't allowed?

I don't think a lot of them even read them. Just scroll past them to get compliant on ievolve

Yes I read them. But I still see a lot of associates sitting in cafeterias and the library with their laptops.

Are there systems inside the library where we could access myapps? Or are you suggesting to open in myapps when I get my TCS work laptop?

Myapps is like a Virtual Machine, it's a website with which you can access TCS internal sites. So u can use your own tab, laptop,pc, Phone, any device for using myapps

Nope. Pls adhere to what you learned in training. Upto a tablet is also ok, but don’t connect to any tcs wifi.
