Pros

1) External Technical certification can be reimbursed

Cons

Below are basics for any company. With the size of TCS company missing the basic will show where they stand. 1) HR and Onboarding process doesn't exist 2) Superannuation will always be credited to your account after 3 months some time takes 5 months. 3) Team member will keep information very close to them. Within the team every one will work as different team. 4) More mandatory training aligned against clients , domain and lot of useless subject. 5) tickets for help will be closed with no option to reopen. It's always one way. HR and Payroll will always close ticket with standard response and that's it 6) no portal to launch resignation and no streamline of process. You will get acknowledgement only 3 days before your last date. 7) final settlement will happen after 3 months after multiple followups 8) No portal or Alumni for TCS Australia employees. Alumni portal access permitted only for TCS India employee. If you need relieving letter - Good luck with that.

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.
