Pros

Previously the so called 'security'. Now none. Only pros to senior or top level people, they get WFH, with almost 0 work. Get salary in time. Has power to bully juniors and freshers

Cons

1. Salary. My friends who joined in different companies are earning 5 to 20 times the minimum, i barely got 5k increment by being best rated in 4 years 2. Hierarchy. The managers and team leads can treat you and socially kill you and rag you but won't get any issues, because HR,RMG,Manager and all other people are at the same side. So no use even if you complain . Even anonymous complaint will get back tracked about who complained. I don't know how it still maintaining 'secure' company status, when there is always breaches happening about employee complaints without securing anonymity 3. Kill your skills and knowledge by making you repeated work without giving project release for 3-5 years. No use wherever you go 4. No transportation, but must come in clean formals without sweating. Especially in a city like Bangalore. Cheers my fellow workers for doing such dangerous stunts from past many years Finally... Zero growth through company, only personal growth

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.
