The work life balance, Initiatives for employees to learn and show there tallents. Job security.
Very low value for lateral hire. No opportunities for change of stream. Compensation and salary hike is worst. Efforts not recognised. Higher management is worst.
Boring. I tried a lot to change my skill and team for more interesting work but manager is deaf i guess.

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

It's been a year and I haven't found anything to like about in TCS yet.
As a fresher if you are going to join TCS, it's really a bad idea, even if they are offering you a digital role. Don't join TCS unless you are being offered Prime role. TCS is no more the company it used to be. Fresh Digital candidates are being assigned to inferior projects that destroys profile and domains of the candidates.

HR Policies, Reluctance towards upkilling, blind-eye towards employee ambition and career objectives. The biggest minus point is the salary which goes complete unrevised since a long time. Promotion and appraisal are very marginal.

TCS is a good organization. We can develop our skills , if we are working in projects as developer, and job security and culture is also stable.
The cons for this company is mainly salary and promotions. Salary will get increase 7% only if got 'A' rating also. Promotions will come based on colabaration with the managers and project.

No likes I've been stich in this company, this kind of sucks. They don't give you proper hike not even 10per for a year. No fecility in office, no tea or coffee vending machine, it's like 3 machine for 14 story office building at itpl banglore. No tissue paper in toilet. But they want you to work from office

Performance bonus they deduct lakhs of rupees in CTC and pay only 33% of our money for for no reason. In TCS, performance bonus is not dependent on employee performance neither company performance. It's depend on top management. Simply they show the amount in CTC which nowhere will be getting to employees. We will not be getting theright answer from HR. There is no proper time management to managers or leads. It's more like govt company. Who require WFH, they keep getting for silly reasons. For genuine medical resons, mid level and jr. Levels they won't be getting. There is no punch-in and punch-out time tracking of employees....Read More

I would never advise any young job seeker to work in such an institution. The experience I had with TCS was horrible and it had an adverse effect on my life. I was shocked at the company's behaviour regarding their female employee's well-being, as I never expected this out of such an esteemed and respected foundation like TATA.
