What I like about Tata Consultancy Services(TCS) is that it provides an excellent work-life balance. We can manage our personal life as well as work efficiently. And the second thing that I like about it is job security. It is an excellent place to work as a fresher.

Job security - Excellent

Dislikes

The only thing I don't like about TCS is that the compensation and salary growth are minimal. As a result, there is very slow growth salary-wise compared to other organisations for the same employee with equal years of experience and similar expertise.

How soon should I say I'm not joining the org.

I have offer from 3 orgs 1. Deloitte 2. Thoughtworks 3. TCS Decided to join Deloitte on March 05, which is the DoJ of other two as well. I wanted to know when is the right time to inform tcs and thoughtworks that I'm not joining their orgs, and what's the best reason to give? I wanted to have a backup offer if in worst case deloittes offer messes up.
