Pros

TCS is most widely known for its job security. It is a great company to start your career with. If you are lucky to work your way through the right projects and under the right people, you have no limit to professional growth. It has a very laid back culture and would suit the slow lifestyle if that is you - it takes a while for you to climb the corporate ladder. You get ample opportunity to learn new technology and trends and use it on the job. Provides its employees with excellent on the job learning opportunity and professional learning reimbursement program.

Cons

It has below standard salaries and compensation packages. The promotion guidelines though standard are not transparent enough to guide you. Great work is not rewarded and Bad work is not punished. You need to document each of your duties (can copy from others achievements) and claim it yours.

Pros

Large client base. Talented people, have "cracked the code" on offshoring development and support.

Cons

For anyone used to working in US-based firms, the culture and politics will be difficult to understand and navigate. Internal policies and systems focus on the offshore delivery center model. Roles in the US do not fit into that mold, and obtaining approvals for simple expenses can require weeks and insanely high approval chains given the size of TCS. I needed approval from a global division head (a CEO direct-report) just to pay for a short training course. Missions of different departments are not clearly defined, so overlap and conflict are common.
