Pros

-opportunity to work in a team that is mostly young -work/life balance is good...specially if u r in a non development project -u get to interact with some of the most brilliant minds in the software industry -opportunities to go abroad which means higher remuneration

Cons

-First and foremost ....they dont recognise talent freshers are just thrown into any project irrespective of their skillsets they even will train u on one technology and give u project on an entirely different one which u r supposed to master -not a great company for career starters especially if u r really talented...better look for some development company

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.
