Trending @Infosys; Hike for bench ppl !!!!
Hello , I have been on bench for almost a year recently only I have entered into a project. But till the i count cycle fill up I was in bench . Now will I be still eligible for any appraisal or hike ? If any hike how much it might be ??
Currently my i count is still showing frozen heard Hr needs to send mail for me .
Less chances. What was ur previous rating? A colleague was fired bcoz he was on bench in past and bad rating in past, even though he was working good in proj for 2-3 months.
Previously it was met expections I got once .so i most probably i won't get any hike and there is possibility i might get fired even though currently iam in project, that's what u saying?
If u get NI rating this time then ur in danger. Hang tight, but start navigating ur next. Best wishes.
I have a question....I'll be joining Infosys as a associate consultant ( ORC or ESAP )
How is the career growth ?
And will i get project ?
I can't speak for u as ur a experience guy switching to infy , as i started here as fresher with basic role I can speak for mine , terrible growth u feel so stagnation in here , lot of bench time , and forget about hikes this is the consecutive 4th time infy delayed hikes , as I said this is based on my experience and peers of same level ,idk much about higher job level people's cases
Im joining via off campus placement
MBA 2024 batch
Role - Associate consultant ( ORC / ESAP )
Your hike will be dependent on your Ratings & eligibility criteria and not whether you are on a bench or a project.
But obviously your ratings will be based on your manager & appraiser who might consider your Bench time, Billable percentage, Projects, skills, other activities etc..
I got NI rating , am i in trouble? Will I be put to pip for sure ?
Yes, you are in the Danger zone & they might put you in PIP. Last year people who got NI ratings were put in PIP( if assigned to project/convinced HR during discussion) or asked to resign immediately (if they are in bench for too long). But don't worry & upskill yourself and try to align to a project and work hard & they will put you in PIP and if you pass PIP, then you are out of danger zone.
