Pros

TCS pays for bench time (most consulting firms don't anymore). When an assignment ends, they work diligently to find a new one. They have a good, extensive online training program with Skillsoft, including employee access to Books24x7.com.

Cons

Health benefits are average at best. They only pay for 1 industry association membership, and only up to a mere $75, leaving the employee to pay the rest or for more than 1. Their employee web platform for accessing all employee information is poorly designed and not very intuitive. A large percentage of management, as well as the consultants, are from India, for whom English is a second language, and it can be difficult to understand them at times, especially on conference bridge calls. The salary was significantly below industry averages. They did not have a good technical advancement program.

Pros

They will pay you. Lax work environment when not dealing with security. The food at the cafeteria is stellar and well priced.

Cons

Poor management Obsolete development machines Oppressive security (version control is against official security policy) Poor (easily circumventable) security (it is easier to circumvent security than it is to go through it) Lack of necessary development equipment Poor communication between management and employees Bureaucratic gridlock and political infighting are too common among management etc.

Works like a govt company. There is lot of job security. But limited chances to grow and less compensation. Onsite work is tremendous but pay is peanuts
