[Layoffs] Why have we just collectively decided to suck it up rather than retaliate?
It's infuriating how everyone's advice to deal with layoffs is side hustles, wasting your life away to constantly upskill and reducing spending. Basically everyone here is saying "live life like shit to appease your corporate overlords" as if layoffs are OUR fault? Instead, why aren't we seeing any advice on the lines of: Build expertise in something while you're an employee and later start your own company/business/consultation on the basis of it. This will increase competition within businesses and will force them to treat their employees like humans. This was kind of the reason why things were generally good for employees from 2021-22 because all the startups popping up increased competition for labour. Or if your employer lays a bunch of people off and starts giving the rest of you their workload, simply refuse! Don't work extra long or extra hard. Get the employees together collectively and make everyone, or at least the majority refuse to entertain these outlandish demands from your employers. What are they gonna do? Fire you all and lose their business? And if that's not going to work, just do everything very poorly and if you're asked about it, just cite that there is a lack of manpower needed to get quality results. Basically, why have we collectively decided to take the short end of the stick and make our lives miserable when we should instead force employers to face consequences of THEIR OWN poor strategic planning? Why aren't we even discussing ideas for, let alone working on protecting our own best interests rather than interests of those who are screwing us over?
BJP will rule forever!!
As this is not healthy for Indian democracy. We are steadily drifting towards a dominant one-party system, where one outfit holds overwhelming structural advantages. Whether we like it or not, this appears to be the emerging reality. Scale of resources deployed this time has been unprecedented - reports of over 3 lakh paramilitary personnel in West Bengal alone, widespread complaints of voter list deletions (SIR) that the Supreme Court largely did not entertain, an Election Commission perceived by many as compromised, and financial muscle that no other party can match. When institutions, machinery, money, and manpower all lean heavily in one direction, the playing field stops being level. We may soon be looking at an Opposition-free India not because the BJP’s ideas have won universal consent, but because the opposition has been systematically outmatched in organisation, resources, and institutional leverage.
Selected at Cognizant but offer not released due to internal changes
Cleared all technical + HR rounds at Cognizant for a Java developer role. HR discussed CTC, documents, and I was waiting for the offer letter for ~3 weeks. Today HR called and said my profile is “on hold” because of internal rule changes/manpower approval issues, and they’re not issuing the salary offer right now. They said they may contact me in future if there’s a requirement. Just wanted to understand: • Has anyone faced a similar situation at Cognizant or other service companies? • Did they eventually release the offer later? • How long did you wait before moving on? Feeling confused because everything was cleared and salary discussion was already done. Would appreciate honest experiences/advice.
