Is termination a good thing on Infosys?
I recently learned that Infosys has been issuing termination letters to employees whose year-end performance is rated below commendable, effectively forcing them to leave the company.
From my perspective, this situation presents certain advantages:
1.)Employees receive three months' basic salary after the termination date.
2.)There is no notice period, allowing them to leave Infosys immediately while still receiving three months' pay.
I am actively searching for a new job and attending interviews. However, many companies require candidates to have a notice period of 30 days or less to be considered. Given this, I see the termination option as a valuable opportunity to switch companies.
I joined Infosys as a fresher, and despite completing three years and consistently achieving outstanding performance in year-end evaluations, I have not received any salary increments. This situation makes the option of termination even more appealing, as it would provide financial support while allowing me to transition smoothly into a new role.
I am guaranteed that employees will leave infosys if this if how they are looking their employees and one major thing is that employees stop working once after realising this opportunity of termination with pays.
I truly appreciate your positive attitude and it's a great quality to have! However, I’d like to share a broader perspective. The same situation you’re in might not apply to everyone, as there are multiple factors considered in terminations or layoffs.
For example, while performance ratings matter, companies also track other metrics. Some IT firms, for instance, monitor online activity. If an employee is marked as working for 10 hours but is actually online for only 2–3 hours, this could raise concerns. Even with a good rating from a manager, HR policies and compliance also play a role in decisions. Many people might not be aware of these factors, which can unintentionally work against them.
That said, I truly believe your confidence and optimism will take you far. Wishing you all the best in your journey ahead!
This is a great insight from you.
With this, I would like to ask you about how are you preparing for the next job?
Like, as of resources, are you preparing from Udemy or LinkedIn Learning or maybe GeeksForGeeks?
Also, do you suggest invest considerable time on competitive coding through HackerRank or LeetCode or any other platform?
And is it possible to create 2 projects good enough to show up on the Resume within the timeframe of of 2 months? (Considering Java + Spring Boot tech stack)
It's depends on the company you are aiming for, if you have a passion to work with Google or microsoft your need to learn efficient coding. The questions will be of that level to check your ability to solve complex logics in a good efficient manner - topics like O(1) time complexity
