Lloyds or TSB - which one is Wipro at?

    Lloyds or TSB - which one is Wipro at?

    Call from Indian agency called Pyramid about a specialised IBM tech contract role. Obviously wouldn't give me any details but I have a strong suspicion it's for Wipro for Lloyds or TSB. Or it could be direct at one of these banks, assuming they need someone to watch over Wipro.

    Anyone know which one of Lloyds or TSB that Wipro are working at?

    I'm sure they are Lloyds.

      I know they are in Lloyds. Don't know about TSB.

              I thought KPMG was handling the TSB fiasco for some Spanish Bank's own IT division?

                I agree with all the negative views about Wipro. I wouldn't want to work for them in a perm role but on a contract basis I would go as far as possible to agree terms that I am happy with and only then take it on. Not that I'm jumping just yet - I have 3 months on my current contract with possible renewal so I'm just feeling things out.

                It's an IBM tech role so my thoughts were that maybe IBM (not sure it's KPMG) were going to bring in specialists to watch over Wipro. Or that Lloyds/TSB would directly contract specialists to watch over Wipro. Either would be preferable to contracting for Wipro.

                  They'll get you on site then bin you off for one of their cheaper bob bods once you've settled in and planned the work out.
