Pros

The company has a good reputation all over the world. The work-personal life balance is the one thing thats appreciable. Once again this depends upon the kind of project a person works for. TCS is best known for Job Security.

Cons

I personally (and most of the TCS employees will agree) think, Appraisal system here in this company is just for the name sake.

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.
