Hi Folks, I have below two offers , Bit confused which one should I go with. TATA CONSULTANCY SERVICES have solid revenue and Business Model and Job is 100% Secured , While I came to know about NORDSTORM that it's a Sinking Ship. Job Location : Seattle YOE : 5 Role : Senior Software Engineer TATA CONSULTANCY SERVICES TC : 130K NORDSTROM TC : 200K If anyone currently working with NORDSTORM , Please help me to take the decision , Is my JOB Secured in NORDSTORM for over 3 Years ?
Definitely Nordstrom. Also, nothing is secure for 3 years.
Does Nordstrom include an employee discount? Either way, go with Nordstrom.
How you rate Job Security in Nordstorm ?
I don’t have that kind of magic 8 ball. Nordstrom is a solid brand, and I don’t see them going out of business anytime soon. But like a poster said above, nothing is guaranteed for three years, even Tata. On the other hand, I haven’t had good experiences with the folks coming out of the consulting companies, and I’d lean more favorably towards hiring someone from Nordstrom than Tata.
Nordstrom. YOE=5 means you aren't old enough to be a lifer anywhere. Nordstrom will be around long enough for you to get the experience, and then decide in 3-5 years if you want to stay or move on.
I worked for TCS long back. Even know all top folks personally. It’s a good culture to work for but they don’t pride themselves on paying well. It hires hundreds of thousands a year. So, you will never be a special person, just a cattle in the herd.
So what you suggest ? TCS or JWN ?
Don’t be blind. Take an informed decision. I do not know Nordstrom so well and not able to recommend.
I’m assuming you’re from India. If you want a well rounded experience working with a more diverse group of people and a different culture, go with Nordstrom. They’re not going anywhere. Job security is controlled by you.
Yeah , you are correct I am from INDIA. Was with TCS all 5 years , Thanks , Actually my heart says to go with JWN but the post about layoffs and Sinking Ship make me think again.
Nordstrom will be fine for a while. TCS has a reputation for underpaying and not hiring the best talent.
Go to Nerdstrom
I would go for Nordstrom, if you're good you'll rise within 2 years or so and then move on. Good/better companies tend to stay away from consulting companies like Tata. Has a rep for not the best talent. If you choose Tata don't stay there long.
I think Nordstrom isn’t going anywhere in 3 years. But yeah I’d probably keep leetcoding
I read many news about Nordstorm that they are Firing and Hiring , Since I am on H1B I need secured Job till I get my I140 approved. How you rate Job Security in Nordstorm ?
Stick to TCS then till I140 gets approved.
