Likes

Once upon a time I liked TCS about the industry standards, reputation,work life balance and skill development concepts.

Dislikes

...fficials about the unprofessional behaviour they don't take any action about it. No work life balance, salary hike, promotions, work satisfaction etc. No recognized in work.Ratings are not given based on work, it's purely based on reviewer & Manager would like to give even if you do work or not

Likes

Little job security unless and until you don't violate company security policy noone will fire you.

Dislikes

Paying low salary to existing employees and hiring outside candidates in average package. And giving yearly hike of just 2-3% however in media they will show 7-10% sometimes more. Higher management doesn't bother about you. They want their work done. Most of the higher management company working on toxic behaviour. A lot of people are on bench some are since year. Average bench period 3months min. Doesn't have anything any project.

Some management people are supportive towards your work and understands the challenges and show the path towards success

Dislikes

Salary structure and quarterly bonus deduction even tbough we are 100% WFO complaint still we are getting only 40%. Whereas those who are not they are getting 100% bonus. This is based on your grades.

The working culture of highly seniors like 12-15 years of experience candidates are still same on current time. They didn't teach the newly freshers candidates how to contribute,they just put work pressure on them (most of the managers doing the same on freasher).

Dislikes

The salary policy , project allocation systems, and also the managers. The working Hours are horrible like ,for me Iam working on morning 6 am to evening 7pm and still my managers shouting at me for the issues I am not able to solve because it a new thing for me and my skills doesn't match to the project requirements, so, I am struggling.

Dislikes

...o many years in same project. It depends on your manager and project management. Variable pay is mysterious. It depends not based on your performance, depends on entire unit your associated with.
