Pros

Laid back, great learning experience. Ideal starting job out of college. The training program is fun and there are many activities that TATA does outside of the business that help unite those within.

Cons

There is very little opportunity for advancement and can be sent to a client for 6 months at a time. Some of my co-workers were sent to Seattle on a weeks notice and were required to remain there for half a year.

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.
