Nothing really

Dislikes

Promotions are on hold at all levels for 2 years now. Even the top performers with A band not getting promoted and salary hike is 2-4%. All this in the name of difficult market conditions, meanwhile CEO getting near to 30% hike, hypocrisy much? Is TCS management turning away from famed TATA ethics?

Salary package is very less compared to the market standards. Employee benefits are not given much importance for the associates who stays longer in the organisation. A good organization for freshers to hone their skills but not for everyone.

TCS is government like company. There are many projects and many domains. If we have good relations, we can jump between projects or accounts. Sometimes lucky enough to get into good domain or get into project to enjoy without doing much work.

Dislikes

1. Appraisal system is biased 2. Slow growth in terms of career and salary 3. Most of the projects will have internal politics and will not allow to grow 4. Most of the project try to utilize within projects and will not plan for career growth 5. No proper guidance for career growth 6. Roles and grades are not aligned 7. There are no role promotions and there is no JD for roles 8. The appraisal goals are absurd not relevant to project or role, mostly they are carry forward from previous cycles. If the goals are achieved, why they carry forward every year?
