TCS Product Development Engineer salaries in Chennai

Likes

I like work culture and the security that TCS won't layoffs their employee easily. But if u r someone looking for growth and good salary then definitely TCS is not for u. It's a good company to join after u have successfully completed 15-20 yrs of experience so that u cn spend later years peacefully.

Dislikes

...l become stagnant after few years, managers won't release u easily from project. Salary hike pathetic, hike (3-6%) doesn't even beat inflation rate. Trust me u will become frustrated seeing ur salary hike.

Manager was very supportive they encouraged us to keep on learning and give our best. No extra hour of work we need to do. Incase of any doubt my lead and manager used to help us understand every single details of why and how we are going to fix it.

Dislikes

Salary and promotion is very slow

Likes

It has low work load due to enough support staff and job is secure as TCS will never ask to leave unless there is a major policy violation.

Dislikes

...ment is near impossible. Promotion will be heard rarely. Lots of hidden charges. And the most important, you will never get salary given in offer letter, it will be short by around atleast 2 LPA or more than that only.

Work life balance is good but again its depends on the project.

Dislikes

1. There are no other benefits apart from salary 2. 5 days WFO failing which they deduct in the quarterly performance pay. 3. Salary Hike is for name sake you will end up getting 30 to 35k per year for highest band. 4. No technical growth. Here most of the projects are like support kind of thing so there is no technical growth. 5. Apart from job security there are no other benefits

- Plenty of resources to learn from. Talent development team is actively encouraging employees to learn new tech which is very good. - People are amazing and kind. I liked everyone there. - You will get amazing role only if you are lucky. Mostly you'll get something that you don't like (for freshers ) and you can't change the role. Read cons to know why. - Great place to start career and settle at later stage of your life. Not an ideal place for in-between.

Dislikes

...akes everyone to work in more relaxed manner. So the environment is uninspiring. - insignificant salary hike ( It doesn't beat inflation) - Takes longer time to get promoted (usually multiples of 4 years ). Your worth is measured in terms of number of years of experience only.
