Dislikes

Disliking aspects of working at a company like Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) 1. Salary and Appraisals: Many employees feel that the compensation is lower compared to industry standards, especially for freshers or those in junior roles. Increment percentages are often perceived as modest. 2. Limited Growth for Niche Skills: Some employees express concerns about the lack of opportunities to work on cutting-edge technologies or niche skills due to the nature of the projects. 3. Work-Life Balance: Depending on the project and client demands, maintaining work-life balance can be challenging. Long hours or high workloads may arise during critical phases. 4. Bureaucracy and Hierarchy: As a large organization, decision-making processes might feel slow and overly hierarchical to some employees. 5. Onsite Opportunities: The allocation of onsite roles can be highly competitive and dependent on project requirements, leading to dissatisfaction among those seeking international exposure. 6. Skill Utilization: Employees sometimes report being allocated to roles or projects that do not match their skill set, leading to stagnation or lack of job satisfaction. 7. Training Quality: While TCS offers extensive training programs, some employees feel these are too generic or insufficiently aligned with the latest industry trends. These issues aren't universal and vary greatly depending on the individual, the team, and the project. Many employees also appreciate TCS's job stability, reputation, and learning opportunities.

Dislikes

1. Next to terrible on appraisal n salary hike n promotion part. 2. HR and RMG are all blood sucking vampires, never were and never will work in employee favour. 3. Supervisor is favor making machine BUT ONLY for Girls and his favourite ones who are always ready to catch his shit. 4. Asking for release from project feels like you've asked for one of the kidney of Supervisor, he will try giving all the possible excuses which makes no sense but you'll fall prey easily as you are not aware of company policies which happens in 99% cases and for remaining tennure you'll hv to live on supervisor's mercy. After changing almost 5 projects, last one was life changing and finally decided to say TATA to Tata. Always ensure to join this as your last resort and waht max package you can join for, otherwise refuse the chance for better future.
