TAS is the worst place to join

Pros

Work from home. Certain benefits.

Cons

The “technical” office in Chennai is a muddle of “yes man” politics. There is no scope for being righteous and straightforward. What matters is how much you can suck up someone. The org is run akin to a prison where the evil warden decides who stays and who goes. Poor retention policies and non transparent promotions and role changes. TAS is a headless chicken which has no direction or vision and all the LT feeds to the staff are lies weaved in intricate language. Every townhall is rehearsed only questions which are easy to answer or can be easily manipulated taken up. They dont have the guts to answer hard questions regarding jobs and future impacts. They dont even protect their own and treat them as waste paper.

Bullies and unfair treatment

Pros

There are great people in the company, but a few bad apples can ruin the experience

Cons

I had to work closely with a couple of colleagues who did not have the appropriate qualifications or experience for their roles. This was really draining, as it required a significant amount of my time to support them instead of focusing on my own deliverables. There were also instances of unprofessional behavior, including individuals who engaged in bullying and attempted to offload their work onto others. Expectations around office attendance was inconsistent, as management changed my mandatory attendance in the office to four days a week while the rest of the team only needed to attend two days.
