Slow rotation policy , felt it could move a bit faster.
Need to give more to the GCP to move up the value chain.

Great work , was proud to work there and opportunities were there for the taking.
Salary & Compensation lags the industry and onsite rotation needs to be enforced.

They train you well
Working in Mumbai location better than any other location of TCS
No pressure initially

Cons

Stagnant growth
Low salary hikes
Trainees are allocated projects randomly so its your luck whether you are in a good project or not

Advice to Senior Management

The upper management is good but the project managers not that competent and the quality of work is not depending on your ability to work so decrease the randomness in awarding trainee a project

Pros

Good culture and growth opportunity. Relaxed work atmosphere and good for balancing personal and professional life. Good options to rise in the management ladder.
Long term onsite assignments (2-6 years) are a norm.

Cons

Not the best pay package provider. If you are a dedicated and exceptional performer, this may not be the company for you. You might just end up being paid marginally higher than your peers anyway.
The middle tier of management is total junk (they spend 90% of their time with timesheet tracking, bill invoice generation and red tapism) as all most of the best resources leave before that phase.

Pros

good consulting exposure through some good clients

Cons

need to build industry expertise in chosen sectors

Advice to Senior Management

build competence in specific sectors

Pros

Good work life balance
Good working atmosphere
A great breadth of projects
Great CSR + Employee satisfaction

Cons

Average compensation
Difficulty in changing projects

Advice to Senior Management
