The perception of company depends on the project you are in . This company is great when you learn in a project and work environment is good . But when you get yourself landed in a project in which work culture is toxic and people are not very professional, then that is a trouble . I have worked in both kinds of project . In one I was learning something new everyday , and people were quite professional. But in another project, Which was support work culture was very toxic and there was nothing to learn . Each and everyday spent in that project seemed like waste of time to me .

Work culture is amazing. Work life balance is also great. But with someone like me who needs work and wants to constantly learn, tcs wasn’t the place to start. It’s good for mid level careers, not for freshers.
