Pros

Brand Name of Tata Consultancy Services. Prestigious clients. Office locations in multiple cities around the world. Largest Software firm in Asia.

Cons

Not so good team management. Employees are forced to take up projects they do not wish to be in. The senior management does care much about the junior level software developers.

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.
