Pros

One of the big shot companies in India, but not for long if they move at this pace! Wonderful employees at the effort level, but they leave too soon - the company does nothing to retain them which clearly show that the company does not care!

Cons

Has the most ridiculous management policies, ineffective middle management who contribute very less to quality of work delivered due to technical incompetency (even though there are training opportunities), hard-working employees at the effort level - mostly fresh graduates and post-graduates with zeal and enthusiasm to contribute well, but their skills are not tapped well! Farcical, ill-balanced appraisal and performance measuring process.

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.
