TCS is a very good company, especially for learning & skills development in logistics & other fields. Working behavior is so much good.Team mates colleagues managers so much supportive in every type of work.
Working environment is very good, Most highlighted issue is Salary/appraisal.

Company policies are good for employees in case of skill development and work life balance. But they have experienced employees who are not ready to adjust to the young people or their culture.
Salary increment is not gonna happen anytime soon. Promotions are just a dream. Some people who did not get train from 1970s are managers so that they don't understand your culture or problems. They think sitting in office after office hours are the people who work. Entertainments are allergic to TCS campuses.

TCS only has brand name.Inside TCS nothing is good. A lot of favouritism and politics however it’s everywhere but not like TCS it’s next level. Even not proper Management nobody is there to help you.
In TCS no growth at all if don’t want to grow in life just want to earn salary you can join TCS

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

The company maintains a perfect work life balance in some projects and have a good cultural path in each sectors. Makes us learning daily with variety of activities and educational programs.
Appraisals and promotions are given for the employees in average scale which makes the employees to think about jumping the company. Other than that its a very good company.

Medical Benefits and Tag to impress others for being a TCS Employee. I've got released within 1 month after paying 2 months basic salary, is the only thing to say good about throughout my tennure. Thanks to the Supervisor angel person.
1. Next to terrible on appraisal n salary hike n promotion part. 2. HR and RMG are all blood sucking vampires, never were and never will work in employee favour. 3. Supervisor is favor making machine BUT ONLY for Girls and his favourite ones who are always ready to catch his shit. 4. Asking for release from project feels like you'veasked for one of the kidney of Supervisor, he will try giving all the possible excuses which makes no sense but you'll fall prey easily as you are not aware of company policies which happens in 99% cases and for remaining tennure you'll hv to live on supervisor's mercy. After changing almost 5 projects, last one was life changing and finally decided to say TATA to Tata. Always ensure to join this as your last resort and waht max package you can join for, otherwise refuse the chance for better future....Read More

You will probably not like anything or you might be surprised, all of these depends on which team you have joined.
Leadership lies whenever they want to, They try to micro manage everything, They will scapegoat you when something is not going well, they did it with me. They do not value their clients and their deliveries, and neither their employees.

At TCS, I am grateful for the opportunity to start my career as a fresher straight out of college. The structured work environment and exposure to financial processes have helped me develop a strong foundation in Accounts Receivable. Handling invoice processing and working with ERP tools has enhanced my attention to detail and problem-solving skills. I appreciate the experience and learning I have gained here, which has strengthened my professional journey....Read More
While I appreciate the opportunity TCS gave me as a fresher, I found that the work involved limited exposure to technical growth and innovation. The repetitive nature of tasks and lack of hands-on experience in advanced technologies made me realize my passion lies in a more dynamic and development-oriented role. This motivated me toupskill in Salesforce development, where I can build solutions, work on automation, and contribute more effectively to business processes....Read More

Human Resource is a big pain. You can not get a convincing reply. They always sound like chatbot and hopefully will be the very first to be replaced by AI. Offshore people are all lazy and procrastinate. There is nobody to look upto for inspiration. There is no motivation to grow or to achive anything professionally. People here are always busy working, but still accomplish nothing.

Onsite opportunities, during my 6 year tenure at TCS 5 years I was at onsite, though it is a pure luck. Medical insurance was better but now they started diluting. My colleagues were helpful but again it depends on luck.
As a mechanical engineer it is not an ideal place for beginners, you will be working on simple tasks that doesn’t need any engineering or technical skills. Better look for opportunities at OEMs or tier1s at the early stage and choose TCS for a settled life.

They are not treating employees with good respect. Hr peoples are very rude. Even for checking something they are speaking in a rude way. Its been 2.5 months i got project still i didn't get license for TCS teams. Without teams very hard to connect with peoples also. Not proving proper support, proper work for your experience. I'm an automation tester but i'm doing manual work. Without intimating me they directly tagged me to this release sayinb frst learn functionality to do automation, but the worst thing is i'm not even learning functionality. Just doing UI validation, whether conton, design, links are correct. Overalll very worst organization. People can choose this organization only for job security that's it. No growth nothing...Read More

They provide access to lots of online learning plarforms like Udemy, LinkedIn learning and etc. You could also get an opportunity to visit onsite.
If you are passionate to get an IT job then never enroll in mass hiring because you'll never know what job role you might end up with, even if you are just want to get into IT sector as a fresher then never choose TCS because they are absolutely cheap in terms of salary and the managers are condescending so you might feel frightenedto speak up at certain instances. Less flexible when it comes switching to a different team....Read More

It is a good place to work but for a very limited time
People wont give you release if you have a dependency on you. In this way you will never learn new things with new people and process. The higher ups are just lazy and egoistic people who do not care for the company or its employees.

TCS offers good work life balance and average skill development. Once you are in they rarely fire. They have variety of projects where you will be mapped according to your skill even if you are average or poor in skill.
Poor salary hikes, Removal of hybrid mode. And Poor promotions. Only disadvantages of TCS job as a fresher is less money.
