Tata is in Markham right? I wonder what the split in on-shore/off-shore will be.

One interesting point is that Markham itself is a pretty popular "off-shoring" location for US businesses.

The only Toronto office I can see listed for TCS is downtown @ 400 University Avenue (which hilariously enough is the building I worked in previously) - I'm sure they'll gladly work anywhere in the city though! As of now, the project managers and team leads are on site, with the majority of their technical staff being back in India.

Ah I thought I saw their logo on top of one of the few non-CGI/AMD buildings last time I was in the area.

Anyhow I got a bit side tracked there, I hope you got decent notice and manage to land comfortably on your feet.

Thanks! If anything, the notice was excessive (six months) - so it's been challenging to search for a new position as we won't be able to start until February 1st (without abandoning our severance packages at least.) Most of us have either lined up something afterwards, or are beginning to search now (I'm still selectively searching for now) - hopefully we all move on to something better!
