Pros

I had the privilege of working at Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) for a significant period, and my overall experience was largely positive. TCS, being one of the largest IT services companies globally, offers a diverse and challenging work environment that fosters professional growth and development.

Cons

TCS has a hierarchical structure that can sometimes slow down decision-making processes. Navigating through the organizational layers to implement changes or receive approvals may be a bit cumbersome.

Pros

Large client base. Talented people, have "cracked the code" on offshoring development and support.

Cons

For anyone used to working in US-based firms, the culture and politics will be difficult to understand and navigate. Internal policies and systems focus on the offshore delivery center model. Roles in the US do not fit into that mold, and obtaining approvals for simple expenses can require weeks and insanely high approval chains given the size of TCS. I needed approval from a global division head (a CEO direct-report) just to pay for a short training course. Missions of different departments are not clearly defined, so overlap and conflict are common.
