What people are saying about TCS

Going by the current news of layoffs at TCS, it’s honestly heartbreaking
People who’ve given their time, effort, and energy to the company are suddenly being shown the door. It really makes you think... no matter how senior or experienced you are, no role is ever fully safe. The same company that once relied on them is now asking them to leave. Feels unfair, honestly. And if there’s anyone who’s seen or experienced something off inside, maybe now’s the time to speak up. pls share your story. Not to point fingers, but just so others understand what actually goes on. We all deserve transparency. We all deserve better.
