Tata's lost its touch? TCS ain't what it used to be :-(

Tata is not the same after Sir Ratan Tata! TCS used to really look after its employees, even when they were on the bench. Now, things have changed and it's disappointing.

Dislikes

Low salary. Extremely delayed promotions. Extremely low variable payout. Unethical seniors- often false promises of promotion and onsite are offered to allure employees in joining project. Long working hours expectation. Supervisors call you at unearthly hours. Goals and Attributes are set at the last moment during appraisal time and often set as per the decision made on your band. If a low band is decided for you, then un realistic goals are set for you. Highly demotivating work environment.
