Pros

1. Good internal tools to learn and upskill. 2. Good company to work if you have good experience in a specific domain.

Cons

1. Appraisal is a joke here. They will change the cycle often and even if you get the highest rating, you wont get anymore than 4 to 5% 2. Favourism - It depends on Projects but I can say almost 90% of the leads/managers here do favourism. There will be people who work hard and as reward get more works. Likewise, there will be people who chill always and gets more relaxed time and promotion as reward. 3. Fake Experience - There are few people from a certain geographic area where they will get fake experience letter from a small local company and join as experienced instead of fresher in TechM with high package. You might have to teach them how to open excel and copy a cell if you were placed with them. 4. RMG - Resource management is pathetic (especially for freshers). You aspire to work as a Developer? Congrats, you will be placed in support projects with rotational/night shifts. 5. TLS - You will get top Notch training from TLS. No disagreeing. But you wont be placed in a project which you are trained for. 6. HR - If you have a problem, and you send a mail, you will get please read the attached policy almost every time which does not have anything to do with your problem. You found something wrong in your project? Welcome to ping pong! PM will say, Please check with HR and HR will say Please check with PM and it goes on forever untill you get frustrated and leave the company.

Pros

* Pay arrives on time, consistently. * Benefits package is decent relative to the industry. * They do invest in internal training programs.

Cons

* Promotions happen, but pay raises simply do not — in three years, I never witnessed a single one, regardless of title or tenure. * They clawed back a 1% cost-of-living raise by quietly cutting variable pay by an equivalent amount. * Overtime is effectively off the table. Budget comes first, always. * HR exists on paper only. Don't expect support or resolution when you need it. * Expense reimbursements — including professional certifications — are like pulling teeth. Expect a fight. * Benefits and perks have been steadily eroded over time to cut costs. * Certain groups of employees are visibly and consistently treated with less respect, given fewer opportunities, and held to different standards than others. Leadership has shown no interest in addressing it.
