Trending @Infosys; Bench Bench Bench

What's going on in Infy - It's been 3 years and no clarity till now. No Skills... No proper project... No Guidance.... No Career growth Don't know when this will end... Zero Confidence to switch...

How many are feeling the same ...???

Being on the bench can be frustrating, but it's a chance to upskill. Try networking internally, and keep pushing for project opportunities.

Go to your manager and ask to assign a good or atleast single tech project

Already approached him, apart from support projects in supply chain domain no other projects.

Then go for it, you can learn from support project and then switch for better opportunity

Bro this is the time.. beat the hell out of it .. prepare so much that i becomes hard for anyone to say no to your profile. Get guidance from youtube like parikh jain ec. You can do it. You can change your story just by getting yourself together and by making a plan
