- In today's video, I'm diving into a critical issue many employees are facing right now: the return to office mandates and the potential job risks associated with it. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we all adapted to working from home, but now some companies are forcing employees back into the office. In fact, they're linking variable pay to office attendance and even threatening job termination for those who don't comply.
I share real stories of individuals caught in this tough situation, including one who made a hasty decision to quit without another job lined up. I discuss why it's crucial to think strategically and not make impulsive decisions when faced with such demands. I'll also provide tips on how to navigate these challenging times, how to buy time, and how to look for other opportunities without jeopardizing your current job.
If you're currently working remotely and facing pressure to return to the office, this video is for you. I hope my insights and advice will help you make more informed decisions.

Salute to this guy. Don't be afraid of these companies notorious practices. No need to fear, just start prepairing. You have 3 months of notice + 2, 3 months of resume gap is nothing
I did the same resigned without offer. Got the job, nothing to worry
I did that and now it has been more than 5 months with no job. I also thought of starting a business which wasn't the best choice. Tell me is that really bad to have a gap like 1 yrs or more?
@@brewingentertainment824 what's your current company
Up to 4, 5 months it's fine after that, issues will be there
Companies can't get away with such inhumane rules in European countries.
We have to make better employee laws which haven't been changed since 1947.
Netherlands is an inspiration for employee laws.
Exactly
All IT employees in India can go to Netherlands if they want!
current modi gov is only with big corporation
Leave India
@@politicallyincorrect1705 Please recall, why we celebrate Labor Day 01/May.
My company made 3 days work from office mandatory, i never went to office as i could apply attendance as WFH on exceptional approval, they asked me to return to office after a few months, I resigned and found another WFH job with 100% hike, it's a win win for me though
Can I know in which company you are working now?
Is this trend healthy? We have a scenario that there isn't place to sit and work, all the team is from a different location, and we have to sit in cafeteria or lawns, etc. What do companies achieve here?
Agree mate
Only one thing real estate value
Its not healthy
control , micro manage
They achieve only one thing which they want: ego satisfaction
But why companies are SOOO SOOO bureaucratic !!! What is the purpose of forcing employees . Face to face Interaction/ Team collaboration / socializing all these are irritating ridiculous points. Ultimate vision here !! Deliverables should happen smoothly without any excuses . Travelling / Spending time in office our life will be exhausted. We should start adapting to new changes when we see significant progress. When there is a option to handle your work remotely ,then what is the purpose of brining back the employees to the office. Login security/ vpn connectivity / Client confidentiality all sensitive access can be monitored accordingly if that is the reason. If client approval is there then anything is possible.
Employee are at mercy of company
Easy answer. Business is not good in 2024 and future doesn't look good. Companies wants to reduce operation cost. Rest is upto you to understand.
IT companies are worst place to work in. They should focus more on AI because the top bosses are nothing less than robots and they should not hire humans as employees. Luckily I left this sector 10 years back without an offer. Today I work in a much better sector with much better pay with the flexibility to work from any city I want.
what do you work on now?

@manc8873 how to enter ?
@@manc8873MBA?
@@manc8873you work in which sector and which role
Ex CEO of TCS was laid off as he was not committing to improving margins. The old horse has been onboarded who is on cost cutting spree.
The salary hikes are committed on social media and happen only in the variable component and the variable salary is at the discretion of the management.
Many associates have actually had a salary cut ranging from 12-20% on CTC
So true mate I think the older one with 2025 policy was good the new CEO should retire talks technology and calls PPL to office waiting 4 hours in travel increases carbon foot print and then they talk work life balance paisa to dete hi nahi
The best thing I would advise people who have job or in bench is do not be afraid, have your resume and LinkedIn update and constantly up-skill yourself with relevant certifications or projects in your domain. No one in the company is your friend. And after a year or 18 months try to give a couple of interviews so that you’re not out of practice. Because at the end of the day your biggest skill is your ability to sell yourself to the highest bidder.
Actually I somewhat disagree with putting papers without offer. I myself had put paper before any offer bcz companies are not considering 3 month notice period. That was valid enough for me to quit and based on my skillset I was confident that within 3-4 months max will bag an offer. That's exactly what happened and i got multiple offers within 3 months. But it's a different scenario if your skillsets are not high in demand like mine (Data scientist) and in that case i completely agree with you.
typical interview for junior will have 50-60 questions, that can be easily notes by attending 6-7 interviews.
Just consider it as a semester exam with 6-7 papers with 10 questions each topics on -> front end, middle ware, back end, release process
By mugging up 50-60 questions, fresher can easily clear the interviews. So always be prepared.
This guy is just like my manager. Upset with this guy😅
I think hybrid is the best work mode
In IT, the product is virtual compare to other industries where engineers need to present at workplace/machinery.
Why they are forcing??
Ok i think some people don't understand that a job is not everything companies will change expectations and requirements as per their business, sensible people cannot change or adapt to corporate at some stage you need to take decisions
As per your example scenario, I don't think relocate to bangalore from Noida is good choice. You are right regarding job market, opportunity is less. Most of the mnc company have 3 months notice period. If we have 3 months notice period then other companies will not consider. If we are on notice period then we may get calls. Most of the companies always prefer immediate joiner.
Cognizant has to face challege in future,, they are trying to do cost cutting but in future whatever they saved they have to loose
Sir I want to appreciate you for your effort in making people aware of current job scenario.expecting more such content in future as well.
2 months without job. HR asks, can you join immediately, prospective candidate says yes. I can join immediately. Offer rolled out.
If you are looking for a job change with current job , than company doesn't contact you due to you have job, but when you left job than finding job is easy due to now a days company looking for immediate joiner.
Any person can easily understand that all these steps are being introduced to increase voluntary attrition. Why? Because if companies resort to layoffs then it will bring a bad name to the company, increased cost of layoff compensation, etc. So why not make things extremely difficult for employees that they quit themselves?
I must say this video was very useful and to the point. loved your inputs ❤
1month notice period also not accepting, companies were looking and giving preference for immediate joiners.
Yesterday he post in linked in that work from home in a positive way but today this video. Not sure to follow which video is right , the theme of every video is like sometimes favour to employee but most of times favour to company policy. What do you suggest?
I know one interesting case. An employee is working from home at Delhi & the company is in Vadodara, Gujarat. Still after COVID continuing work as an exception. Reason is that as compared to the employee 's spouse earning 5 lakhs a month in Delhi, this employee is not bothered about increment or promotion since last three years in this comparatively low paying company. The head of department knows it is cheap to keep such an efficient person who is not bothered about increment or promotion just by allowing WFH.
They reduced building facilities and asking ppl to back office. Need to book seat 4 days before in mid night 12, then only can get seat. Without proper seats available, how ppl can resume to office
When leadership fails to bring new projects & they don't have any deliverables,
These kind of evil Idea comes to their mind --- How to make Engineers life hell 101
Sir Cognizant is forcing many of us who are in bench to resign. Even we are able to clear the interview which they take for client and internal but because of experience they are not taking us in project.
How many days you are in bench for?
Prepare for govt job exam if you have time.
@amanpandey6349 if you don't have experience. How are clearing interview ? Trying to understand your words..
Please do one video about the pros and cons of a contractual job.
companies force employees to come to office as its the easiest way to make them resign by themselves and less hassle! There is no other logical explanation for making them come to office as anyway the teams are not co located and even if so there Is no guarantee that team members will make it on the same day.
be smart. evey rule has exception and pros and cons
Cognizant is not able to pay employees n struggling to make profits and is selling office space but wants employees to work from office.
Forcing employees for office is jist non sense thing now adays 😮😢
I droped paper moving to my native 🎉... Nowadays hectic.... Sir quick ques... This video for below 40 or above 40?
Are you retiring?
Spitting the facts and ground reality
Just wondering, this is such a common sense not to resign without an offer because of WFO and you had to make a video for it.
But notice period plays a very important role nowadays all companies ask for immediate joiners or less than 30 days if u say ur notices period has 90 days where most companies are they dont even schedule the interviews
Great advise.
Thanks Anand for this video
What if we don't need variable we can work from home ? 😕
In that case the stupids will make some.more laws by reducing the hike or giving strict warning
Could you let us know when was the right time for a "career break", I mean, what period was that, 90s, 2000s,??
I want to ask why HR don't check the application...i mean they don't open or check the profile on job portal ...where we applied
True, It is Informative.
Why work from home which is a headaxhe for the family. Everybody should go to office and work atmosphere can be created .
Life after covid has changed sir to be true. Family health too is important even though you get paid less.
Now In I.T companies 70% are back door entries as durga sir told
Amazing points
Hi Im looking for jobs outside. Due to some shitty politics and in bench for the same reason.
Now when im searching for job i say my official notice was 90 days. But, since im in bench for 60 days. It is possible to negotiate early release. HR will fall back and never calls again
Cognizant?😂
What is your opinion about Companies ?
Does terminating service is justified ?
Thank you for the video
Hello Sir, I am '23 Graduate and still couldn't get into job even though i got placed with campus, I used to work for 8 months under data expertise people and came out 2 months ago.. feeling bad for wasting my youth days.. currently learning on SQL and practicing it..wonder how it's going to be in coming few months. I even rejected the idea of going for masters as the situation is same as here..can you suggest something sir, I am trying to apply everyday whatever is relevant to my skillset..even feels like working in startup with field of interest is good but my parents are expecting a stability from myself and free themselves from humiliations which I can't see them bearing 😢
Absolutely right
Sir, I am on a career break. Please let me know more than 2 months and will be on risk finding opportunities this year
day by day job scenario is getting tough, lot of sr. people looking for job and not able to find. No one knows from where next job will come.
solution??
do think what you can do on your own may be a small business will also work. Dont increase loan at least.
Thanks Sir ..
in case of termination due to unable to go to office, will the releving letter be provided properly? is any severence pay being provided ?
Yes..they will if your performance have been good and your relations are good. Good companies usually don't trouble employees for relieving docs, at least in termination due to WFH.
Don't make that employee a fool, to make your video to view
OMG. What kind of advice is this ! Dude this is not 1990s
agree as well.. the usual advices which anyone can give. 'prepare for the worst' blah blah blah
Nice video
No other employees are as entitled as software employees. Did the companies give Work From Home option?, the companies never said that they wouldn't not call back.
Use your brain, Do u even realise why software employees want wfh? Software as the name suggests doesn't require ur in person presence to create that software as software is VIRTUAL unlike other jobs where workers have to go to factory to create that physical product. Also for many software devs,wfh was present even before corona.

I can guarantee that in 2 years, WFH will completely be discontinued.
Prepare for govt job is the message😂😂😂
If you don't have skills, they think like you, used to like your videos, but disagree with you here.
You are not competent enough to give gyan.
There are no Jobs so do watever companies say !!
Salary of persons who work from home should be cut by 50 percent.
then 75% working time too
@@abhi36292 Instant sack for those who don’t work 100 percent.
COVID is over. Guys get over it. Get back to the office. If you don't like this policy, find another job. Work from home is not a right, it's a privilege.
Humans history always shifted to comfortable zone . Starting with transportation to our handy mobile phones, we always adapted to something which ease our work and makes us more comfortable. Nothing wrong in WFH or hybrid model. It gave some comfortable for employees. So please don’t comment as if you are sticking with Stone Age and working hard for every single thing in your daily life.
Why don’t you start walking instead of taking Car/Bus/Van
@@antoprakash2099 It doesn't matter what you (the employee) want. What matters is what the employer, who is paying for your work, wants. Their money, their policy. You adjust, or find another job. People are staying at home and making CZcams videos. You can do that too!
@@politicallyincorrect1705 you speak as if your employer ask you to do monkey dance , you will do as they say bcoz they are paying you. Sorry, the system doesn’t work like that. That’s the reason why labor law has been formed. One pays either for the material or service provided. Company don’t pay you for nothing. Government don’t offer tax benefits or investment benefits to these organisations or companies for nothing. That’s where the give and take policy starts. And, I’m not here to say object company policy, but at the same time, company can do some things in favour of employees. As an employee or labourers we should keep our request, accepting or not accepting is up to the company. If we don’t request, then as you said we will be like monkey’s for the money they throw.
@@politicallyincorrect1705 Last I checked both the buyer and seller determine the quantity and price in economics. If the supply (workers) do not want to do business with you then you either let us work from home or get desperate folks lower quality workers.

Correct, no such mail from HR..
Just Project managers & DU leads are creating problem. They themselves don't have any work to do other thah counting attendance.
