It is a very good company for students of any stream who wanted to work and didn't got admission to tier 1 colleges, because it provides a great platform for unskilled freshers to get into TCS and learn skill and improve their knowledge which will always help them to boost their career as they switch jobs in future.
Dislikes
Nothing is bad about TCS. Just you need to understand the intention of the organisation, that it is not about good salary but to skill and unskilled person who doesn't get job anywhere else because of his knowledge. And In TCS he/she can get that Knowledge and may excel in their future Job.

There is no growth in TCS. Appraisals range from 2-6% which is very less. You have to come 5 days to office. TCS is extremely regional and you will start feeling like a outsider there.

Only the job security and the exceptional health insurance is there which can be easily replaced in a different job.
Dislikes
Most annoying thing about working in TCS is that the company thinks it is making an impact in giving jobs which is true but in turn they are only making the candidate suffer more by scattering the future of his/hers.

You can use udemy and other learning platforms to enhance your skills.
Dislikes
Your work is not appreciated and won't be reflected either in your appraisal/bands or as promotion. Don't over work as they don't see anything at all
Work life balance is great. Encourages learning and certifications.
Dislikes
Increment is very very less. Too much politics in office. Appraisal depends upon your relationship with the manager.

Job security, need not be worried about getting projects, elevate wings.
Dislikes
Salary hike, once you complete elevate wings, you will receive incentive (salary will be doubled) until next band appraisal. After band appraisal you will definitely get poor band and incentive will be discontinued. Can't provide free bus pass.

TCS offers a wide range of opportunities for career advancement, with clear paths for promotion and skill development.
Dislikes
While TCS offers a stable work environment and excellent opportunities for career growth, the salary packages, especially for entry-level positions, might sometimes feel below industry standards. However, I understand that TCS compensates this with other benefits like job security, learning opportunities, and a clear path for careerprogression. Over time, as one gains experience and demonstrates value, there are opportunities for salary increases and career advancement...Read More

It was all good when the previous CEO was there
Dislikes
First dislike is the new CEO, second the organisation itself. They are making it toxic day by day and they don't care about employees' satisfaction or their needs. My advise to any fresher , please avoid TCS for the rest of your life

The Job security is something that's not just a saying but a fact.
The work ambience is good as there's a lot of smart and dedicated people around you.
Benifits you get along are better than most of the other MNCs
Dislikes
The company is not for freshers or to start a career.
RMG is inefficient.
Hikes are very low.
5 days WFO is a pain to be honest.

There is nocig good project where you can learn. They will make you dump. If you are in kolkata branch, then only thing you will hear all time dada, and didi. And "cha khete jabi" , "cigarette khete jabi"
In Kolkata, full and open politics, Senior persons are going on site multiple times.
They don't even have sufficient technical knowledge. Only they know to show bossism and making some nonsense talks.
Please please the earnest request to all freshers , please don't join TCS, specially in Kolkata branch. It will ruin your career if you are really interested in learning and want to grow in career. You can grow only in how to do politics.
you have to go office before your manager is coming into office and you have to leave the office either with them or after their leaving.
Resource manager (RM Team) , worst people I have seen in my career. they don't have any knowledge about technology. It is like if Team A is required one person , assign any free resource to that team, does not matter what skill set he / she has....Read More

Learning growth is very slow and technology used by the project is outdated. Salary hike is very slow they are just providing 5 to 7% of hike.
