Pros

Good place for a start of a career but never stick to this place for more than couple of years.

Cons

Middle Management full of low performers who have no idea what they are doing. Looks like they are running another Taliban regime. HR Dept has a liason with Management and have no idea what Human resources mean. Policies of this company are the worst in the modern corporate world.

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.
