Insurance and job security that's it. No other benefit.
Salary doesn't increase every year. They eat out variable pay by 75%. No learning curve. No financial growth.

In TCS you have flexibility....you can choose projects, reject projects, learn lot of things through various learning platforms. Though during project, sometimes managing learning is an uphill task. Low salaries for long timers is a big drawback. It boasts of being agile but does not use agile for running its own day to day operations. Resourcing is in a big time mess, people working on project have to invest a lot of time in resourcing, there's no dedicated team within the projects ( even projects as large as with 300 people). Quarterly bonus is almost certain to be zero at 12+ yr experience levels. Old school mentality still exists in TCS, where wearing Jeans is a crime on weekdays. Male employees still do not get official paternity leave ( when needed they apply other available leaves)...Read More
Low salaries Late night meetings Leadership vaccum, super seniors are like arrogant bosses, they cannot toleryone word against their decisions. Quarterly bonus is virtually non existent at 13+ yr experience levels

Good work culture ( if one does not want to work ). One can spend complete career without working. One can deny work by telling lack of bandwidth or lack of experience. TCS has tie up with most training platforms so one learn a lot. If you have good relation with seniors then chances are there for onsite oppurtunity.
No appreciation for project work completion and hardly any promotion or salary hike. Every project manager amd partner will give a ladoo of onsite oppurtunity to everyone in the project to motivate as they are helpless due to low pay and low yearly appreciation of associates. TCS is mostly concentrated on AMS and BAU projects so chances are less to get a role in consulting or implementation project. ( its mostly like tata customer service) No mapping of career aspiration, skillset or education qualification. Senior are mostly concerned about incoming revenue and will tag to any project as long as revenue from client is coming. Getting out of project one does not like is very difficult without proper connection or if the project does not finish. No proper training before onboading, Partners try to skill associates on clients resources after onboarding to save money....Read More

Work life balance is good with positive work culture. Benefits and allowance are good.
Reward & recognition are comparatively on the lower side, may be subject to a project based. Band promotion after a certain level is very rare.

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.

Age old thinking. Senior HR leaders follow HR processes set in place 2 decades back. Company misleads markets. To markets, company gives commentary that the performance is good, whereas to employees, company shares a picture that they are bleeding financially. In a way, they are cutting employee salary to feed dividends to shareholders.

Just the Job Security and If you lucky then good people to work with
Salary hikes are the lowest even if you give every possible effort, They are clients puppet, Force you to WFO five days a week and if you do not then they will deduct your Variable Pay, Ask you to wear Formals forcefully. They will even force you to take trainings which are not relevant and seems unnecessary
