Work culture is amazing. Work life balance is also great. But with someone like me who needs work and wants to constantly learn, tcs wasn’t the place to start. It’s good for mid level careers, not for freshers.
No hikes, no motivation, no appraisals, shit salary. Failure to recognize true potential from right employee

there is no value for the employee, all RMG are showing bossism. they dont give value for the employee carrier they just want their billing . I found there is no carrier growth technically because they will allocate the project which are irrelevant to our core skills they is no hikes , i don't see any hike for my salary for last 4 years and nowadays they are not paying variable pay RMG is not allow to tag to right projects where we get onsite opportunities...Read More

TCS offers job security, a good work-life balance, global exposure, and excellent learning opportunities, making it a great place to grow professionally.
Common dislikes about working at TCS include slow salary growth, rigid processes, limited innovation in some projects, and mismatched project allocations. However, experiences vary based on role and team.

The company has a very good management professional and HR to reach for the change of project or in any support. Good work culture. For skill development there is lot of opportunities either in digital applications or in IRC with some very good books.
Following the same hike percentage for freshers and lateral entry is not fair. Even after 8 years You could see that the person often switch has greater pay scale than the person who is loyal to TCS. In Promotions manager would play a political game there.

No ethics, integrity at senior level. Freshers are treated like resources. Senior's are egoistic and do manipulative tactics at freshers. More importance is given to non-skilled employee than skilled one. Veg ambience in regional places is not good. There is biasness and discrimination in regional offices.

TCS is not a employee friendly company. If you show them your capable to handle any work, they won't elevate or give you additional responsibilities simply ask you to to do same task repeatedly and won't release you when you want to move for any other technology or domain after working so many years in same project. It depends on your manager and project management. Variable pay is mysterious. It depends not based on your performance, depends on entire unit your associated with....Read More

It is highly advisable to exercise caution when dealing with TCS's HR. While HR Business Partners (HRBPs) are presented as an independent vertical, in reality, they function as enablers of senior management’s decisions rather than advocates for employees. The higher management, particularly within PS India (Indian projects), often exhibits unprofessional behavior—marked by arrogance, a lack of basic courtesy, and an unreasonable approach. During my initial tenure at TCS, I was unfamiliar with certain company policies. I was instructed to arrange self-funded travel with an assurance of reimbursement, only to later be denied repayment on the grounds of policy non-compliance. Shockingly, this refusal came after a whole year of persistent follow-ups, highlighting not only a lack of accountability but also a disregard for employee welfare—whether mental, emotional, or financial. Meanwhile, HR remained passively copied on emails yet entirely absent when it came to actual support....Read More

There is Nothing to like here.
Manager shouts at you and humiliates you in front of others. They load you with too much work which takes 12 hrs of working in the weekdays and also in weekends. There is favoritism so you will have to also take up the work of people who do not work and happily butter manager for a living. It is a very toxic workplace. They keep 5 lpa as your variable pay and hardly pay 20 percent of that so your ctc is reduced by 4lpa straightway. Hike is 1 - 2 percent annually. They do not maintain any hygiene in the canteens and there are flies and cats and dogs roaming around. Bathrooms are dirty and so is the drinking water. You will never get promotion here....Read More

Nothing..
There's nothing good about this organisation. People are pathetic, and neither want to work nor learn about new technology. TCS is 5-7 years behind it's competition when it comes to its offering. People who has never changed in their life are running the show and think they are the successor of Late Sh. Ratan Tata. People who have moved to overseas treat others badly, you'll be surprised people belittling others over Teams call.. Senior director level individuals will tell you over the Teams call that they don't need your past experience. HR in this organisation is simply useless, and doesn't pay heed to your grievance. If your experience is between 8 to 10 years and you've zeal to work like donkeys and don't want to learn anything new then this organisation is for you.. Also, if you think you'll be travelled to overseas for projects then rethink your decision since only few individuals travel who are good in licking.. Last, don't join their Sales Organisation it's full of idiots.. they'll bid to every single deal knowing they cannot win.. just because they got many individuals in their sales team....Read More

Medical insurance which will cover for indiviual and family floater upto 12L which is highest when compared to other MNC's.
Worst work culture and corporate politices. You will never get a salary hike. hike will be worsest around industry like 1%, 2%. If you are above 40 nothing else to do in else, no need to career growth or hike, you can just work as timepass!!!

I like to about culture at TCS because it offers a sense of satisfaction and comfort, especially with job security.
However on the other hand, there are two things that I feel are missing: Chances of promotion and the opportunities off salary hikes, which tend to be quit low.

Overall Company is good but only on one condition if your not Tamilian or Telugu then never work under in any Tamil or Telugu manager because they will all your credit and perks to there tamil or telugu subordinates only not you. And new CEO of TCS is again a Tamilian and all Tamilians are enjoying because all onsite and other perks without any effort or work they all are getting.
Worst department in TCS is HR Department, HR is puppets of all Tamilians and Telugu Managers. Even you can able to prove your self with all work evidence, Still HR will listen to Tamilian or Telugu Manager. Its time came when HR and new CEO has to change the name of Tata Consultancy services to Tamil/Telugu Consultancy Services.
