Pros

# TATA Brand. # Providing employment to 450, 000 people. # Good employee centric policies. # Easy to get job as a fresher since interview is not much difficult to clear and they recruit in huge numbers. # Good for people who already have a better alternate income source, expecting 9 to 6 secure job with less work, less pressure and treat this job as part-time.

Cons

# Very less career growth and very old projects with less or no learning curve. # RMGs completely neglect your aspirations and force you to join some random project. # HRs are there to save managers and not to help employees to solve problems employees face. # Third class mentality managers. They play with your appraisals and promotions. Bootlickers are given good appraisal ratings and promotions. Appraisal system is not transparent and completely biased. Managers waste your time by forcing you to complete some courses which are neither useful to your project not your career aspirations. # Work environment is full of bullying, backbiting and cheap politics but it depends on Manager and Team Lead to certain extent.

Pros

Large client base. Talented people, have "cracked the code" on offshoring development and support.

Cons

For anyone used to working in US-based firms, the culture and politics will be difficult to understand and navigate. Internal policies and systems focus on the offshore delivery center model. Roles in the US do not fit into that mold, and obtaining approvals for simple expenses can require weeks and insanely high approval chains given the size of TCS. I needed approval from a global division head (a CEO direct-report) just to pay for a short training course. Missions of different departments are not clearly defined, so overlap and conflict are common.
