Why Complicate Life ?

On a day when earth has almost completed a round around the Sun, I sat down and thought of writing few liners which might help all of us in resolving the complications of Life.

Missing Somebody ? ……………………………………………………………………Call

Wanna Meet Up ? ……………………………………………………………………….Invite

Wanna Be Understood ? ……………………………………………………….……..…Explain

Have Questions ? ……………………………………………….................................Ask

Don’t Like Something ?…………………………………………………………………Say It

Like Something ? ……………………………………………………………………….State It

Want Something ? ..............................................................................................Ask For It

Love Someone? …………………………………………………………………………Tell It

Guys, nobody will know what’s going on your mind. It’s better to Explain rather than Expect. We all have the answer for NO, take the risk of getting YES !!

btw It’s Your Life, make It Large.

TCS Salary Hike April 2012 – An Estimate

This post was originally posted by me on 22-Nov-2011. But due to severe parental pressures had to remove it. Now since the tides have subdued so re-posting again. 

For the past 1 Year I had the privilege to estimate software size and cost. This lead me to produce an estimate for the upcoming salary structures across Indian IT Companies and more precisely TCS. I took out my Numerical Analysis book (which I hardly studied during my Engineering) and started with each chapter. I found out ways of Computing the trajectory of a spacecraft by accurate numerical solutions of a system using ordinary differential equations.  The way Hedge funds (private investment funds) carry out numerical analysis to calculate the value of stocks and derivatives more precisely than other market participants. So the process of understanding Numerical & Graph Analysis was becoming interesting.

This study has been prepared on the famous Newton’s Algorithm - Newton–Raphson Method along with Linear Interpolation, Current IT Market Scenario and Macro Level Challenges which IT Companies normally suffer with. So once the techniques were applied I could not believe my eyes with the sort of data these procedures provided and believe me I was not disappointed. The study takes into consideration that most of us would be placed in Band B or Band C. As, people hardly get Band A in TCS with 3 Years Experience. The study fails for Band D because TCS has an unusual process of decreasing the salary rather than increasing it. So by means if you happen to have a Band D (unfortunately) your experience would have increased with a negative hike in salary. It’s weird but TRUE.
