Pros
Good base pay for doing practically nothing
Cons
I accepted a position with TCS as my first job out of college being given the impression I would be involved in software development. They bring everyone in for a training period at their campus in Ohio and give lessons on agile, devops, and coding languages, which seemed like they intend for their employees to be involved in the development cycle. When I got to my company of contract, I was put in a basement that had not been modeled since the early 90's to do application support. The managers assured me this was the way that people start in development when obviously it was not. After several months at my new job doing real development, I can confidently say the managers and account did not have the slightest clue what they were doing, or were knowingly trying to deceive me. The recent graduates I worked with still believed our managers even though they were still doing HR work for half a year. When I left the job, I was no better a developer than when I joined. I would have been worse if I did not keep studying in my free time. Some people from my orientation batch moved their entire families to locations for projects only to arrive and be told the project did not exist! The only star they got was for pay out-weighing the work being done. If you are an American-born citizen looking to have a career in software development, stay away as far as possible from this company.
