TCS offers a wide range of opportunities for career advancement, with clear paths for promotion and skill development.

Dislikes

While TCS offers a stable work environment and excellent opportunities for career growth, the salary packages, especially for entry-level positions, might sometimes feel below industry standards. However, I understand that TCS compensates this with other benefits like job security, learning opportunities, and a clear path for career progression. Over time, as one gains experience and demonstrates value, there are opportunities for salary increases and career advancement

Dislikes

from last 2 year there is lots of politics overall citi uses very old tech. If you wanna bring anything new there are lots of obstacles and politics. Promotion halted, layoff happening. We have senior developers who can't open vim or work with basic python. So overall everything from work to culture to tech to the job satisfaction is going downhill very fast. As soon as market opens, attrition rate would be really high and the good employers would be first to leave.
