Why freshers working in TCS are generally considered as dumb?

I was really motivated to write this post after reading Facebook statuses of my dear friends-"Finally got placed in TCS.","Going to work with TCS" and blah blah blah...! Question to my dear friends is not-"How TCS is biggest employer of India." but what you are going to do in TCS as fresher.

So basically problem is not with working of yours but your mindset. It is clear that all of us wants to be a software engineer. But it is only true for CSE and IT students. Question may arise about other engineering stream students like Mechanical, Production engineers. They also call themselves as software engineers and hide reality by saying Software is my passion. Really, is coding your passion? If really coding is your passion why don't you join Oracle, Flipkat, Microsoft and Google. Don't you think that's an absurd truth? Why don't you join a core software company and why are you complacent with your job position in service-sectored companies like TCS? Fact is that you will never get a chance to code and you don't know how you will be used.

Company is not a problem at all but your mindset as always. Accept the fact that you joined TCS only because you are not good enough to get another good job. You will have to accept this reality in  95% of fresher joining such companies. When you know that you are not good at coding, why not others should call you dumb. What about other 5% freshers, later or sooner they end up leaving TCS with ZERO Experience.

You simply join TCS as a simplistic approach for career choice but I am very sad to say you are one of them. Yes off course TCS is mass employer, I know at least 80 TCSers who proudly say they don't know doubly linked list, yes they may not be dumb but as a coder they are always.

Hope so I will not see one of you at Nagpur Passport center calling names of applicants.

I think following people should join TCS:

1. If you are so called engineer who sucks at technical skill and yet want to be part of IT industry with approach of  no interest and improvement in life.

2. If you want government like job with stability and sluggish growth rate.

3. If you don't have capability of another placement and are in dire need of job.

4.  If you plan to go for higher studies and just want a job for sake of convenience. Really 1% with this objective go for higher studies after wasting 2 years of corporate life.

On toughest battlefield in world Siachin glacier, India has lost over 900 soldiers. But news of the brave heart Hanumanthappa Koppad broke hearts of all truly Indians. Hanumanthappa and his nine friend soldiers were resting in their camp at Sonam post, suddenly a huge ice wall crashed upon post, about 9 days ago. They were buried under ice alive, 25 feet below of tightly compacted snow.

Following facts of Hanumanthappa’s life are really inspiring:

     He was rejected thrice by Indian army

He hailed from a small village Betadur from state of Karnataka. Tradition of this village inspired him to be in army forces. Hanumanthappa was rejected by Indian army thrice before he joined army. He was very determinant and passionate about mother India.

He used to walk 6 km to school everyday 

In his childhood he would travel 6 kilometers of distance on his feet to reach school, which was in Aralikatti village.

 

                    Yoga master

He was deeply religious man. He was not only practicing yoga daily at 18000 feet, but also used to teach his colleagues about breathing exercises.  

                    Liked to work in difficult areas

He was enrolled in 19^th Battalion of Madras Regiment in year 2002. He always used to work at difficult battlefields.  His posting at Mahore in Jammu and Kashmir, involvement in operations during 2003 to 2006 shows his bravery and burliness.

          One of the toughest man to work at army

At the age of 32+ he had that kind of fitness which can make any youngster jealous. He was certainly toughest among all men deployed at glacier post. Army experts claim that only 90% of victims of such cases can be revived if provided healthcare within first fifteen minutes and only 27% are alive after 35 minute. This is sufficient to explain strength him and brave heart Indian soldier. 

We must salute him. Indian educational system must include his brave stories in book to inspire youngsters.
