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.

Job security would be one of the top reasons of joining TCS. Work life balance is also good compared to the market.

Dislikes

Salary and promotion process being one of the worst metrics on being a part of the TCS family. If you would like to join TCS, consider it in a phase where you would settle down here with a good package as retirement plan, don't join it early in your career because progressing here will make you old.

Lot of learning platforms to upskill yourself.

Dislikes

...et better Band compared to one who has higher IPF Promotions is a big challenge. You will sped 8 years or more if you are in mid senior level (asoc) Salary component includes variables but you will get 20-35% of it only Increments (2-3%) will be only on paper. Your salary will never increase in hand. If you are getting 1L increment then be rest assured that 40 k will be on fixed and 60k on qva which you will never get in full. They will pay you less than 40% whatever efforts you put in. Onsite opportunities have reduced.

Job Security cos most of them are lazy bags who doesnt skill up and also cheap labour for the clients .

Dislikes

Everything .No Career Growth , Horrible work culture. Underpaid salary .Sometimes we think even a tea shop would be better than working at TCS as a fresher

Not much work pressure, seniors are supportive. Higher ups support for upskilling though they never make use of it.

Dislikes

...on seat availability not skill/performance based. Recently giving very bad band. Those who are in company are getting lesser salary than freshers..
