Concerns About Opportunities for Internal Growth(very Big Pain)

I want to bring up an issue that many of us are facing. We often receive emails encouraging us to learn new skills through TCS resources or external courses, with the promise of more opportunities within the company. While this sounds great, there seems to be a big difference between what's being said and what actually happens.

Many of us already spend over 10 hours a day at work, along with managing our personal and family lives. Despite this, we still take the time to learn new skills through internal platforms like Ultimatix and outside courses. However, when we apply for projects to use these new skills, we're often told that only people with specific experience are needed.

This makes us wonder: If employees who are committed to learning and growing within the company aren't being given a chance, then what is the real purpose of these learning programs? It's discouraging to be encouraged to learn new things but then not be considered for opportunities to use those skills.

*****I want all your opinion.

Hi,

Yes it's correct,If we are doing the work and along it we are working on the technical things it really allows us to learn. But if we are not using that technology and try to learn it does not motivate us to learn

Second they are only trying to force us to learn unnecessary things which we are not using. It really makes sense if we are not using and learning then it wastes of time.

It has been 3 years since I completed my AWS certified associate but no use and now almost forget many things. Only the concept I remember.

I have realisation that no one in talent development wants to help you grow..they just do the job of sending emails on trainings ..and nobody cares about the impact of outcome

This is very much true and when I saw the solution architect curriculum for cloud,devops, microservices..... It was evidently impossible...

4 external certification and 80 courses...and then an ion exam and the one demo project approved by a solution architect

Yea this is an ongoing scam in this company, also I think another reason might be the managers at top level especially with zero skillset feel threatened as they will be employing someone who might be more skilled than them, it's a very toxic unfair environment we work in sadly

The funny part is most of the TCS mandatory courses are irrelevant to the current role or your aspiration role. They are not even having any partnership with any of the certification bodies. "Certificate renewal" is 100% not possible in TCS.

Very true.

I have completed certifications which are of highest order in their category, and is outside my core technology. Due to this I also got tagged to a relevant unit. But, project and role I got is still old style.

The problem is that no one in TCS wants to groom a new learner. This is the general attitude problem all over TCS. In my 13 years in TCS I have not learned a single new skill.
