Pros

Fancy expectations with lowest benefits per market

Cons

1. Not so good the sold out Work-Life balance : Due to the nature of the industry, employees face long working hours, tight deadlines, and the need to be available outside regular working hours, which impact work-life balance. Which is exactly opposite to what is sold. 2. Bureaucracy: Being a large organization, TCS has significant bureaucratic processes, which might slow down decision-making and implementation of new ideas. 3. Salary and benefits : Most employees , al old timers, employees feel that the compensation packages, including salaries and benefits, are not as competitive compared to other top-tier IT firms, and also especially those in the early stages of careers. Not good for old timers and early joiners. 4. No Scope for Creativity - Working in unknown structured and stupid process-driven environment limit opportunities for creative thinking and innovation. 5. Global mobility and basic Infrastructure lack: Although TCS offers global opportunities, obtaining visas and relocating internationally is challenging and not mostly align with employees' personal preferences or timelines. Getting a basic laptop can be a challenge too.

Pros

Friendly co-workers. Friendly culture. Lots of diversity in projects.

Cons

Once you leave you can never return. I worked for TCS for nearly 8 years and went from making 72k/year to 91k/year. At a senior level I should have been making far more. The pay is sub par. As a Senior Software Engineer I made under 100k/year.

1. Job security 2. Onsite opportunity 3. No competitive or dominative mentality in team 4. No office politics 5. Work life balance is good 6. Work culture is good

Cons

1. Below average yearly increment 2. Low career growth in terms of money 3. No work from home, fully work from office 4. Before 2 years you are not eligible to change your project 5. No possibility to take release from project once allocated 6. If you are in probation period or you are a trainee or you are an permanent employee all the cases you have to serve 90 days notice period, no negotiation. 7. No cab service, in 1pm to 10pm shift only drop is available and in night shift(9pm to 6am) only pickup is available that too you need to apply in the portal before 3 days. 8. You will get performance pay every three months. It is an average company for average people, not for technical experts. once you leave the company, you can not join again in your life as per policy, if you rejected the offer or did not accept within 7 days of offer release, you are blacklisted forever.
