I will not recommend tcs to anywhere unless and until you get good salary. Now tcs has 5 days office working policy. Plus 9 working hours and for mumbai powai location it will take 2+2 = 4 hours traveling time. Very less hike. No promotion. Not having good project.

Freshers can learn and gain skills sets and can switch to another company. Tcs is not like company it is more of like school. After college you can start your professional journey from here. But it has its own drawback which I'll discuss in dislike section. Some of Its policy is good but also these have its own drawback XD. such as health insurance benifits, No layoff policy.

... of the people working here because of job security and life insurance benifits. Salary of a freshers is not practical according to current days scenario. Freshers have less scope to grow up and less promotion opportunities. No matters how much work are you delivering higher management will only force you to come back office. Some people do nothing literally just only sucking the company. Management is puppet. If anyone (freshers) wants to do nothing after 10 years and he or she belongs to a rich family where your salary is just your pocket money. then yes u can choose tcs blindly.
