Pros

Lots of projects, many clients, good learning experience, good facilities at office like library, canteen, good ergonomics, opportunity to meet various cultures.

Cons

Very low salary compared with industry. Bad appraisal system, only few people who are close to top management are given good hikes/promotions, rest all are crushed to bottom. Top management is not skilled, so can never recognize or appreciate the talented team member. No facilities for self improvement. No good trainings are provided on new technologies. Can not raise voice to top management.

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.
