Pros

Multi Technology, domain opportunities exist Well defined governance processes Knowledge sharing culture does exist onsite options are good . . join as a lateral to get good competitive package

Cons

Lack of transparency in appraisal Lack of transparency in promotion.. only talks about innovation, ryp & all blah blah.. HR's treating core employees as commodities.. after initial 2 years either get an onsite or quit the company or else you'll end-up becoming average laterals at same grade or experience level earn upto double than the existing employees who joined as a fresher or are serving since long..

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.
