Folks who joined Tata Consultancy TCS this year, even though you had another offer.

how is it? Was it worth joining, leaving your previous company, work wise, salary, WLB, peace of mind etc.?

Was working 7-8hrs in my previous org. Now working 12+ hrs per day. Huge shift in culture, here bootlicking is extremely common and management needs their ego stroked every now and then. If you are new then goodluck coz your team members will not help you to bring you up to speed. You don't have the option to choose a project, no matter how senior you are.
See they have their own agenda and will always be extremely rigid with it. You don't have wiggle room or anything. I would say it will be a mistake, personally after approx 3 months in TCS.

Depends on the other offers you have

+1

Yes, after hiring people in huge numbers. maybe TCS became like this.

Yes huge mistake joining tcs .... unorganised due to huge no of hiring also messed up work culture as high attrition....dont join tcs ...they hv majority local projects where client ba's create watsapp group and call you from different nos if you don't pick calls
