Tata Consultancy Services reviews

1. You're hired for a particular project and not TCS and you cannot leave this project until you leave TCS. 2. Projects are mostly support at indian client location. 3. They will not tell you for which project you are being hired. 4. If you resist that you do not wish to work at that project then nobody will bother to help you.they will Either force you to work there or leave. 5. They will put you to client location to work without any TCS benefits(no transport, no canteen, neither access to client benefits) . 6. Less salary hike not even 30% if you're coming from good MNC and joined TCS. 7. You are just a project hire not TCS employee. 8.No work life balance at client location. 9. Indian client projects are Always on cost cutting side so don't even expect hike. 10. If you have real development work experience then do not join TCS because you will never get chance to improve here.

A lot to say. The company is not for freshers despite the fact that it is the highest recruiter from engineering colleges in India. 90 % projects are support projects. Support projects are hell especially for a person who has spent 4 years studying engineering. It is not at all a place to stay for more than 2 years. The environment makes people sluggish and reluctant to do any work. The head count is very huge. Gaining recognition will take a long time. The biggest issue is that it recruits graduates in campus drive claiming that they will be offered jobs in core related projects and the branch of TCS is called 'Engineering and Industrial Services'. It shows a dream that it is an elite sector and only 9000 out of 3 lakh employees are a part of it. In TCS, none of them holds true. People in EIS are being tagged to support projects and literally there is no difference between an IT guy and EIS guy. SO if you are joining this company just because you have got a job in TCS EIS, go for it only if you do not have a better choice.
