Job security, work life balance is good.
Appraisal pattern was horifing , favouriteism are there for Appraisal , RNR, work from home facility, company policy is against favouriteism under the Tata code of conduct but still it is very common in projects. Experience and talented employee get 3-4 % salary hike for YOY but favourite employee gets 7% hike minimum.

Disliking aspects of working at a company like Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) 1. Salary and Appraisals: Many employees feel that the compensation is lower compared to industry standards, especially for freshers or those in junior roles. Increment percentages are often perceived as modest. 2. Limited Growth for Niche Skills: Some employees express concerns about the lack of opportunities to work on cutting-edge technologies or niche skills due to the nature of the projects. 3. Work-Life Balance: Depending on the project and client demands, maintaining work-life balance can be challenging. Long hours or high workloads may arise during critical phases. 4. Bureaucracy and Hierarchy: As a large organization, decision-making processes might feel slow and overly hierarchical to some employees. 5. Onsite Opportunities: The allocation of onsite roles can be highly competitive and dependent on project requirements, leading to dissatisfaction among those seeking international exposure. 6. Skill Utilization: Employees sometimes report being allocated to roles or projects that do not match their skill set, leading to stagnation or lack of job satisfaction. 7. Training Quality: While TCS offers extensive training programs, some employees feel these are too generic or insufficiently aligned with the latest industry trends. These issues aren't universal and vary greatly depending on the individual, the team, and the project. Many employees also appreciate TCS's job stability, reputation, and learning opportunities....Read More

My overall TCS experience is good. I learned lot of new things in a TCS. TCS gives opportunity to learn new technologies.
TCS is a service base company so maximum revenue they are earning from support projects. Fresher's expect more development project but maximum time fresher's get allocated to support projects.

Worked at Tata Consultancy Services was as same as government jobs. Good culture, good people and environment. Overall TCS is my dream company from my college days and I got placed in campus
Since I had worked for a short period of time and released due to pregnancy. So I can't able to mention anything that disappointed me.

The good thing about the TCS is that your job is totally secure and you’ll get much comfort as compared to other IT companies hence can balance your life here.
Promotion and appraisals are only the names here you will only get 3-5% increment/yr whether you perform well or not.

Work pressure depends on the projects, if you are lucky you will only have 1 hour of work. If you are extremely unlucky you will have to work on weekends if the project demands without any compoff or benefits.
Old bags in the company decides your upraisal, if they have any vengeance or personal ego you will not get a good rating/performance band.

Work Life Balance depends on projects only. If you are skilled enough, your life will settle as TCS provide top notch job security. You will get lot of learning opportunity even in any projects.
In some projects, you may need to attend night meetings because most of the project's people are from onsite. So, you are required to attend the meetings during night times even you are working in Indian hours.
