      Worst Job I Ever Had

      Pros

      They hire good people, upper management cares enough to tell employees to avoid this and other review sites while themselves writing fake 5-star reviews full of TCS corporate speak.

      Cons

      Lies, lies, lies. They tell new employees they have just landed a dream career, then proceed to give them three hour shifts with no reasonable predictability. No promotion from within, jobs are filled before anyone knows they're available. I had a few new employees come to me in tears, asking why it's so bad. TCS is constantly being sued for violating labor laws. I don't know anyone who ever got a single 10 minute break. It got worse every year. I was never so happy to leave a job.

      Pros

      You will find yourself working with some of the most supportive & giving people around if your staff has been there 5+ years.

      Cons

      Little advancement. We're losing most of our best people as they seek a living wage. Hours cut for part timers as part of payroll limiting. Management more focused on current catch phrases than employee satisfaction. Turnover is increasing. Hearing more & more disappointment from those who remember a more encouraging environment.
