An employee's benefit from organization is not just a payslip. This organization is a great place in terms of learning opportunities with multiple learning channels. - Regarding the work culture and projects, its nurturing for freshers. They would learn many things useful. It would add a brand value. Again it depends from project to project. But mostly it is a great work place with good managers and colleagues.

Dislikes

... from the manager is like asking for his/her kidneys. Salary increment is poor. They claim that Digital candidates get good pay but completing modules for digital is useless rather someone can prepare to move out of the company. No goodies, outing and very few parties just do your work and go home. Switching project on your will is nightmare or impossible, they make you stay even if you have no work just for billing

Pros are: 1. TCS is good in giving salary on time. It gives every last working day of a month on time. 2. The work load is average, I didn't got much work. But may be you got lots of work if your team lead is not good. 3. The job security in TCS is 100%.
