Pros

Great Initial Training Program. Good opportunity for learning if put on the right project. Some people may be interested in onsite opportunities for the $.

Cons

Pay is really really bad. 90% of the people that I worked with were extremely incompetent who were (not surprisingly) satisfied with their job. Any decent engineer would get frustrated in just a couple of weeks. Management treats employee like a herd of cattle. Engineers are randomly put on projects. Employees have to work in shifts because there are not enough PCs or chairs for people to sit on! Barring a couple of projects, the work is very dull and boring. If you are billed by the client, good for you otherwise be prepared to spend long working hours.

Pros

The best reason to work for TCS is that its an established IT company in India. Its been in business for the last 41 years. Job security is granted. Its an IT goverment. There are good policies when it comes to employee social welfare. I hope there will be no IT company in India where you will get pension , family pension after retirement. It gives medical reimbursement for upto 5 lakh per annum at a very small premium of around 4000/- per year. Good company to join when you reach the retirement age.

Cons

Career growth takes a negative trend while you start working for TCS. If you are a lateral TCS deducts half of your experiance. You will feel the pinch of it later. TCS recruits 3-4 years experinaced professionals and make them work hard for atleast 4 years before they give promotion and increment. There is too much of office politics happening in TCS. Hence it has become a government office. Your career growth depends on your ability to keep your boss happy. Deserved never get promotion. Employee rating and performance pay is fake.
