Pros

Well, the brand Tata always work. Most of the projects are testing projects as it is service based company. The funda is to get the work from clients and we do it. No matter what kind of work. Work and life balance is quite good and very good in that. Well it all depends on project also

Cons

The middle management is the major problem. Most of them got into the position because of seniority and not because of talent.

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.
