Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has been named to the Forbes annual list of America’s Best Large Employers.
This recognition is based on an independent survey of 45,000 employees working for American companies with more than 1,000 employees, a statement said.
TCS is one of the largest recruiters in the U.S. in the IT services industry, and has hired more than 21,000 people over the last three years. Its diverse and engaged workforce of more than 45,000 people across the U.S., collaborates with global teams to help customers innovate, transform, and grow. TCS clients include nearly half the FORTUNE 500 companies – in industries ranging from banking and financial services to retail, life sciences and health care, manufacturing, and travel.
By consistently investing in building talent across the company through professional development initiatives and digital skills programs, TCS has become a top employer and set the industry standard for talent retention. The company cultivates a deep bench of veteran experts – called Contextual Masters – who can solve a wide range of specific problems with contextual knowledge. TCS harnesses contextual knowledge from across the company to support clients throughout their digital transformation journeys, according to the statement.
“TCS has focused on creating an employee-friendly workplace that fosters innovation and empowers people to grow both personally and professionally,” said Suresh Muthuswami, Chairman, TCS North America. “We will continue to invest in our people and culture to ensure TCS remains one of the best employers in the U.S. and around the world.”
TCS employees go beyond helping businesses transform through technology; they make a meaningful difference in their communities. Nearly all TCS employees in the U.S. engage with purpose-driven initiatives every year. Additionally, TCS invests in addressing the most pressing needs of the community – education, skilling, employability, and digital entrepreneurship with a focus on bridging the opportunity gap for people and communities. TCS’ STEM programs are increasing equitable access to STEM learning and preparing the students for the digital workforce of tomorrow.
