Manager was very supportive they encouraged us to keep on learning and give our best. No extra hour of work we need to do. Incase of any doubt my lead and manager used to help us understand every single details of why and how we are going to fix it.
Salary and promotion is very slow

- Plenty of resources to learn from. Talent development team is actively encouraging employees to learn new tech which is very good. - People are amazing and kind. I liked everyone there. - You will get amazing role only if you are lucky. Mostly you'll get something that you don't like (for freshers ) and you can't change the role. Read cons to know why. - Great place to start career and settle at later stage of your life. Not an ideal place for in-between....Read More
- Terrible Management - False promises - Switching roles and projects internally is a nightmare which wouldn't be needed if expected role is given at the first place - Most employees preferences are security and on-site, not worried about growth which makes everyone to work in more relaxed manner. So the environment is uninspiring. - insignificant salary hike ( It doesn't beat inflation) - Takes longer time to get promoted (usually multiples of 4 years ). Your worth is measured in terms of number of years of experience only....Read More

Multiple opportunity but no one helps to know about opportunities.Managers and RMG do not bother about your skillset.You generally get project which do not match your skillset.
Managers generally do politics and fraud in appraisal. Managers do not want to work by ownself but impose work on juniors to complete all work even on weekends and extended working. CEO should be changed to make work culture better.

Job security is good .A person without knowledge or work interest can also survive without fear.
No growth in appraisal/ promotion, learning. More work pressure on the person who works . Work will not be balanced among the team. Everything will be on few people who works and rest of them can sit idle and enjoy the benefits

The work culture and work life balance is great. Cultural events and health care programs are organised timely!
The salary hike is very bad even with good ratings. Promotions got delayed and you have to face many politics within project.

Learning and Development: TCS offers various training programs and learning opportunities, including the TCS Learning Hub, which helps employees continuously upgrade their skills. Career Pathways: There are clear career progression paths within the organization, allowing employees to advance based on their performance and skills.
Competitive but Moderate Pay: Some employees feel that the salary packages offered by TCS are not as competitive as those offered by other leading tech companies, especially for freshers and junior roles. Increment Rates: Annual salary increments may be perceived as modest, and not always in line with industry standards.

At TCS, I am grateful for the opportunity to start my career as a fresher straight out of college. The structured work environment and exposure to financial processes have helped me develop a strong foundation in Accounts Receivable. Handling invoice processing and working with ERP tools has enhanced my attention to detail and problem-solving skills. I appreciate the experience and learning I have gained here, which has strengthened my professional journey....Read More
While I appreciate the opportunity TCS gave me as a fresher, I found that the work involved limited exposure to technical growth and innovation. The repetitive nature of tasks and lack of hands-on experience in advanced technologies made me realize my passion lies in a more dynamic and development-oriented role. This motivated me toupskill in Salesforce development, where I can build solutions, work on automation, and contribute more effectively to business processes....Read More

Human Resource is a big pain. You can not get a convincing reply. They always sound like chatbot and hopefully will be the very first to be replaced by AI. Offshore people are all lazy and procrastinate. There is nobody to look upto for inspiration. There is no motivation to grow or to achive anything professionally. People here are always busy working, but still accomplish nothing.

Work life balance and Job Security. If you are looking for an stable working place without expecting huge annual hikes TCS is best company to work with.
Annual salary hikes and Work Culture are not up to mark.

Onsite opportunities, during my 6 year tenure at TCS 5 years I was at onsite, though it is a pure luck. Medical insurance was better but now they started diluting. My colleagues were helpful but again it depends on luck.
As a mechanical engineer it is not an ideal place for beginners, you will be working on simple tasks that doesn’t need any engineering or technical skills. Better look for opportunities at OEMs or tier1s at the early stage and choose TCS for a settled life.

They are not treating employees with good respect. Hr peoples are very rude. Even for checking something they are speaking in a rude way. Its been 2.5 months i got project still i didn't get license for TCS teams. Without teams very hard to connect with peoples also. Not proving proper support, proper work for your experience. I'm an automation tester but i'm doing manual work. Without intimating me they directly tagged me to this release sayinb frst learn functionality to do automation, but the worst thing is i'm not even learning functionality. Just doing UI validation, whether conton, design, links are correct. Overalll very worst organization. People can choose this organization only for job security that's it. No growth nothing...Read More

They are deducting variable pay without solid reason. My salary was 14-16k less than it should come. And for seniors this difference is even more.

They provide access to lots of online learning plarforms like Udemy, LinkedIn learning and etc. You could also get an opportunity to visit onsite.
If you are passionate to get an IT job then never enroll in mass hiring because you'll never know what job role you might end up with, even if you are just want to get into IT sector as a fresher then never choose TCS because they are absolutely cheap in terms of salary and the managers are condescending so you might feel frightenedto speak up at certain instances. Less flexible when it comes switching to a different team....Read More

It is a good place to work but for a very limited time
People wont give you release if you have a dependency on you. In this way you will never learn new things with new people and process. The higher ups are just lazy and egoistic people who do not care for the company or its employees.

TCS offers good work life balance and average skill development. Once you are in they rarely fire. They have variety of projects where you will be mapped according to your skill even if you are average or poor in skill.
Poor salary hikes, Removal of hybrid mode. And Poor promotions. Only disadvantages of TCS job as a fresher is less money.
