You are a 7+ years dwbi professional and you are looking out for your next switch. Many industry pundits would argue like product based companies and consultancies have better jobs , both in terms of the CTC and the kind of work, In this article I would like to emphasize why an IT professional shall stick to essentially IT companies while switching and which IT companies excel in the DWBI space and why an IT professional shall consider switching\being into these IT companies.
Please note this is just an opinion and the information below is based on what we hear in cafe discussions. This is not legal advise :)
It's always better to be in the IT service industry as it offers what is most important -
1. Job security.
2. A wide range of projects to move into from time to time.
3. Ability to work overseas and in India accordingly.
4. Though product based companies do offer high packages, most of their projects are internal, the exposure of which is nothing when compared to that of traditional billable projects.
Mid sized IT companies generally hire 7-8 years experience IT professionals as Project manager and leads for once in a blue moon client projects which they are able to bag.The upside is that there is tremendous opportunity for you in terms of CTC and client interaction. You can own the entire project. The only downside is job security as it is a project specific hiring.
Some of the top players in dwbi domain globally are as follows:
1. Cognzant - Every dwbi professional should definitely consider this company to work for. The work experience earned here is globally recognized in the dwbi space.
2. Wpro - Many wpro alumni have moved in dwbi product leaders like Informatica and are running the show there.Great company to work in new technologies.
3. IBbM - Is a market leader in analytics and every other thing. There is no dearth of projects but again that could change as per the geography.
4. Acenture- Another very nice to company to work for. Takes care of its employees and provides good CTC. Good number of projects across all domains.
5. Infy - It's great to see infy in the new avtaar. This company has managed to put back leadership issues and is now going great guns. A good option to consider.
