Everything is good about this company except the appraisal. I got a my expected package while joined TCS and after 7 years completion and very good bands over many years now I feel like I am getting very less salary. Their appraisal and promotion pay is marginally less. So I recommend not to stay on TCS for quite long time like me.

very less pay scale and growth. even appraisals are given in penneies. if it is your first job, then you will be stuck at the same salary bracket for a very long time and andit's very difficult to get digital or innovator profiles being in a project which require too much effort from your side,and occasionally they keep changing the rooms and conditions also.
