Nothing. Lots of team politics. Doesn't matter you work hard and over time, still you will be getting b and c bands because of the team politics and bcz management wants other ppl to work by luring them with bait in terms of band which is not even proportional to their productivity hoping that they would work. Still ppl Don't work. In a team of 6-7 ppl 2-3 ppl will be doing the work of whole team while rest just give excuses of no knowledge in the problems and that is being accepted by management. There are so many management leaks, just bcz managers and leads doesn't wanna do their job of managing at right time so they also ask ppl to work who already are over burdened. They keep encouraging this careless attitude for the employees not taking responsibility and not delivering work. This is overall very demotivating for ppl who are actually working, honest and responsible. After sometime this kills the motivation of even hardworking employees to work and this cycle of encouraging the attitude to not work continues....Read More
Everything: No bonus No incentives No time to work on enhancing your skills No proper training for handling stuffs No equal work distribution You are expected to forget your family and provide 24*7 support. No appreciation No rewards Hike almost none - 2-4% yearly Even if you are providing extended support and working in other ppl's shift bcz of their lack in learning, you are blamed for not being glued to your phone 24*7 in off time And even then there is no appreciation acknowledgement, rather you are blamed. Ppl eat your credit, asks for help all the time, most of their work is done by spoon feeding from you and even then they go behind your back to your managers completely discrediting you by which the managers even get influenced. No hierarchy followed for learning and senior - junior relationship. Managers keep encouraging no work attitude from juniors and ppl who join team afterwards. They are treaded like babies and never held accountable....Read More

For skill development we get a lot of opportunities, like certifications and all. Even if you are working in some other project with some different tech stack, you can still apply for other tech cretificates. Also they provide platforms like udemy, linkdin etc to enhance your skills. Also you got job security working in tcs.
Process of promotions are not that transparent or bias. You only get first two anniversary and finincial upraisals with very less percentage hike. And for promotion you will have to wait till 3 years and that process is also not transparent. Your managera will say that they have raised your promotion in sysstem but you will not be able to see the process and then it will take 1 or 2 years more in promotion....Read More

Job security.
No skill development, Manager's are literally not working. As everyone knows that TCS doesn't fire employee, senior management takes advantage of this and just work for status meetings. There is no reward for talented folks, not getting enough salary and there is no meaning of appraisal process.

Job security is best in industry, not much pressure work wise
Recent policies have make the company not very good for working. No flexibility, almost nothing on promotion and increment. There are multiple person to do a work but in reality only 1 or 2 person among them know and do the work .

For me it is emphasis on learning, and employee development. People often appreciate the opportunities for professional growth through its training programs and wide range of projects across industries.
While I appreciate the learning opportunities and the structured environment at TCS, one area that could be improved is the pace of career progression. Sometimes, the growth trajectory can feel slow due to the large scale of the organization. However, I understand the importance of building a solid foundation, and I’m eager to contribute to the company in ways that could potentially accelerate my growth."...Read More

Job security, medical facilities and company culture are very good .
Work life balance is critical because there are 4 rotational shift and very frequently changes. Salary is poor other than other company, here decrease my skill and after your given 100% effort you can't expect a good promotion due to office politics.

Freshers don’t get to choose the technology they want to work on. So, as a fresher, I suggest not joining TCS. The HR team is not supportive at all, and they don’t understand the value of employees.

1. No anniversary appraisal pay raise. Annual Appraisal cycle is April to April and criteria for annual appraisal is 1 year. So, if you join in May 2025, your first appraisal with pay hike will be in April 2027, as you won't be completing 1 year in April 2026!!! 2. No approvals for external certifications 3. Compulsory wfo even if client approves wfh. 4. If you are joining with grade C3A and above, you will only receive 20-30% of monthly and quarterly performance pay....Read More

Many employees feel that the salary offered by TCS is significantly lower than other IT companies, and salary hikes are often considered inadequate compared to the industry standard.
