Is it worth?

Hi, I am working in TCS from 2.8 years with 4.5LPA. Currently, I am on bench from 5 months. I am getting projects but from TCS Aadibhatla which is 70km from my home. There are shuttles but in the evening I couldn't catch the bus(shuttle) because of my shift timings which is 11 AM to 8 PM. And I have to pay Rs.1500/- for bus pass every month. Is it worth travelling 70km?

TCS Adibatla is situated at the other end of the city and its not really worth travelling that much. Deny the project , and look for projects either in SP,DP or KP or maybe with client locations.

Yeah actually I have rejected many projects due to this aadibhatla location. So, please let me know if there'll be any risk if I be on bench period for long time

I rejected close to 15 projects before landing a project with Client location after a short bench period of 18 days. So if you haven't spent much on bench as of now , consider your options and try to look from projects via ultimatix too

Use your time on bench to upskill and switch

It is not at all worth it. You will have to loose both money and time in travelling.
