Anyone familiar with Tata Consultancy Services? A recruiter reached out regarding a position that would amount to a great promotion. I am interested but would like personal insights on the company, such as culture, pay compared to similar firms, employment security, etc. Thanks!

Be careful with TCS. Most of their contracts don’t have a travel budget. So they may make you move near a client. And if a contract ends and you can’t find a new project, they may lay you off. They do pay well, but exit opportunities from TCS may be limited.

If getting more money and a promotion is what you’re looking for, you may be better served going into industry - it would save your resume (agree that you don’t want TCS on it) and give you good experience if you want to come back to consulting

TCS price their deals at super low margin by charging same resource on multiple projects. The one that lose out is the resource. Don’t go for TCS.
