Working at Tata Consultancy Services in Chicago, IL: 13 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Chicago, IL Area

"I've worked for TCS and all I can say is its not for everyone."

"I have worked 8 months in TCS with a client of BMO harris bank"

"I am part of the company that has the largest number of employees"

"Very Good company to work with as a fresher"

"I've been working in Tata Consutancy Services over 1 year and 3 months. The main goal of the company is to outsource software engineers into client company. I've learned some, but instead of working on the stuff I wanted, I was placed and had to fit into the position based on their needs."

"I worked for TCS for about 7 months, and in that amount of time I found the company to be terrible. The only redeeming quality is the fact that they hire Jr. Developers to help them get experience. The employee website is so confusing, it takes an instruction manual on how to use it. I enrolled my spouse in the insurance that they offered and she did not start getting coverage until I had been there for 6 months. I would contact them almost daily on this issue. I would call the helpdesk, who would tell me to create a ticket in the "Help Ticketing System", but then when I would open a ticket in the ticketing system, they would just tell me to call the helpdesk. My supervisor never wrote any performance reviews for me despite it being required of him and my continued emails on the matter. In fact, it was virtually impossible to get in contact with my supervisor, so any problems or issues I had fell upon deaf ears. Also the company still uses Lotus Notes as their emailing system, which is the most out-of-date, unintuitive, and inconvenient system out there."

"Great place to work where you will be exposed to various technologies"

"I have worked for more than 2 years in India for Tata Consultancy Services. It was a very nice experience. Great opportunity to improve your skills. Nice work culture and work environment."

"They do not provide you a cell phone and laptop for work and you have to go to the office when the job can be done from home or a remote location."

"Okay for freshers and newcomers."

"First of all I worked with TCS in India. The work environment was competitive but very pleasant. The appraisal process is quite difficult but if you work hard then you will get repaid. I enjoyed working there."

"I've been working for TCS since 2011."
