The day I joined IBM India (Noida) I realised I made a blunder leaving HCL. Just next day after my joining the Talent manager tagged me to a project where my responsility was to monitor a specific IBM tool and create Excel sheet reports.

Next day I went to him and told him the job profile doesn't match with my skill sets. I still can't believe the reply I received from him. He said “ this is not a restaurant that you have the Liberty to choose your own food” and I will be allocated to the right project when there is availability.

I was completely shattered ! My turmoil didn’t end there. I had to do night shifts throughout my entire tenure of 10 months in IBM.

One day I said to myself “enough” and I resigned within a week. Everyone felt it was an immature decision except my parents.

Fortunately my notice period was one month as per IBM policy as I didn't complete an year. I came back to Kolkata my hometown and spend quality time with my parents. Also I used to update my Naukri profile on a daily basis and offers started pouring in. Finally after 3 months of unemployment I got an excellent offer from CTS Hyderabad.

It's almost six months now I am here in Hyderabad and can't express how much happy and motivated I am. I work in an excellent project with awesome team mates and a superb manager.

Also CTS gave me 43% hike from my last drawn salary.

One thing I have understood now “ The only risk in life is not taking any risk”

Cheers !!
