Me and My important observations about this "Company" My Tech/Functional Expertise:
IT-Software Testing
My Total Experience (In Years):
2 to 5
Fresher Salary (CTC in Lakhs per annum): 2.40 My Recommendation:
50-50 "It depends on you"
I have worked/been working with this company:
Yes
Comments: Fresher Salary: 2.5 to 2.8 lakhs per annum is the fresh engineer salary package depending on the college. Career Growth/Onsite Assignments: One major drawback of TCS is it handles many projects in India so you can be onsite and still in India, and they don’t give any extra perks if you are posted to a client location in India. There are many India specific local projects, which TCS handles to name a few Tata Indicom, SBI, and some projects for state governments too. If you get stuck in this kind of project it can be a waste. Training: TCS gives training for 2 months on different streams, the training is for name sake, any way technical knowledge is not required in Services Company, they teach couple of interesting things like ball room dancing and dining etiquettes too. Work Environment: I worked in a client location, it was not that cool. Brand Value/Respect: Great! TCS team had Father of Indian Software Industry Fakir Chand Kohli Work Life Balance: Depends on Project, after delivery is over the schedule can be cool and during go-alive it can be more. Job Security: Good Co-workers competence: Not very good Bond: TCS has a bond of 2 years for fresh engineers. Facilities: It does not have special campus for its development centers in most of the cities; it leases buildings in different places.

Me and My important observations about this "Company" Fresher Salary (CTC in Lakhs per annum): 2.70 My Recommendation:
50-50 "It depends on you"
I have worked/been working with this company:
Yes
Comments: Brand Value: Brand Value is great. “Tata” name is sufficient to impress anyone. Work culture: Its like Indian govt job. A lot of complacency and politics go hand-in hand. Work-pressure: Not much but depends on the project and your supervisor also. If your supervisor is a workaholic person he wants you too to sit back upto 9 pm and won’t like you to leave office even if you don’t have any work in office for the day. Bench concept: Best in the industry. If you’re a fresher don’t expect work for the first 6 months or so. But you’ve to come to the office every day from 9 to 6. Salary: 2.14 lakh to 2.36 lakhs. (Never trust any HR’s promises. They make false promises before hiring like “…the package has been increased and has been revised but its not getting reflected on the offer letter right now. Once you join the company you’ll get a revised offer letter.”) Dress code: Have to wear formals, always. Job Security: Very high Co-workers competencies: Poor. Recommendation: If you want a peaceful life TCS is the best but if you’ve high aspirations in terms of your career growth DON’T ever join it.

2. By heee! Hi all, Believe me TCS is the sickest place in the world. Please! please! please! dont ever join TCS. Soo many unethicals thing happen there. Its the dirtiest place in the world. 1. By Rock I have worked for 2 year in TCS and now working in a switz bank in singapore. My Experience of TCS- Its a difficult company to work in if u r looking for a fast paced career. Highly beauteucatic culture. But I wont mind joining back TCS after i have earned something like 50L and I m feeling tired of all the work. TCS is a nice company if you just want to take it easy.. noone makes u work hard if u dont want to. no job security issues as salaries are already very low. There are always pros and cons, same people who complain about low onsite and offshore salary dont want to take up high paying high risk jobs with low job security. what a dichotomy...

Career growth and onsite opportunities? Onsite opportunities are abundant and available to everyone. About 30% of TCS workforce is placed onsite.
How is work environment and how efficient is the communication b/w teams or department? - Modern & pleasant environment in most cases, it is also true sometimes that associates work in a relatively odd atmosphere when there is space crunch. Communication across team/department is efficient and it is possible to access information without much headache. A lot of processes have been digitized to ease communication issues.
Work pressure/Work – life balance. - Life is well balanced.
Satisfaction with salary and quality of work. - Salary is justified per market standards however there is always a scope for salary improvements. Quality of work is primarily dependent on the type od assignment (support, enhancement, development etc)
What type of work they do: Product development, Services etc. Or if mix of these then what at percent? - Both. TCS has roped into product development recently in an aggrassive manner.
Job security. Highly secured job which is what makes it difficult to get out of TCS.
Some positives and negatives of the company.
1. Employee satisfaction can be increased by providing them the A/C bus services.
2. Associates can be made aware of the expectation in the begining of the year rather than in the middle or end.
3. Associates can be freed up more easily by their existing managers when there is no work available.
Do you recommend your company to others? Yes or No and Why?
Yes. My times are well spent in TCS and I wish the same for my friends.
