Job security, Company strictly adhere to policies, I like their payroll system and ultimatix tool. TCS siruseri office is excellent place to work.

Dislikes

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.

Multiple opportunities to upskill and learn new technologies, support for certification is good too. All the technical jargan and complexity makes it difficult to access the resource though.

Dislikes

...like school kids and company is teacher, response has to be exactly as per them. Salary is another pain point. And HR, they don't care or know that you even exist. Literally no response at all.

Policies are also very bad, when you dont have project odc in india and project failed to provide seat in nearst tcs office still you need to comply with wfo policy. They wont give you exception. 5. Over mail manager gives assurance to retain person but still won’t honor.
