TCS was established in 1968 as a division of Tata Sons Limited and incorporated as a separate entity in 1995. It has over 254,000 employees working in 44 countries and aims to provide innovative IT solutions and services while respecting individuals. During the 2009 recession, TCS faced financial difficulties as clients postponed projects but addressed this by changing hiring strategies, gaining employee feedback, and stress management programs. It conducted more frequent performance reviews and learning programs to build talent without extensive recruitment.

helped make TCS one of the
world’s largest global software
and service companies with more
than 1,43,000 consultants working
in 42 countries, operating out of
over 151 offices worldwide, and

8. In 2009, the global economy faced the most severe economic shock. The
defaults on subprime mortgages (home loan defaults) led to recession in the
U.S. which significantly affected Indian IT companies, TCS being one of
them. U.S. clients took a cautious approach and postponed all outsourced
projects, which led to financial crunch.

9. •. When the global
recession struck India,
Tata Consultancy Services
(TCS)took a look at its hr
policies and practices to
attract talent with
optimum cost utilization.

trainers to bring them on a
common platform with other
employees.

company strategy and
people strategy are in
sync to create
employee value
proposition?

executives conducted appraisal

started multiple learning and
development programmes without
investing much on recruitment
during this phase. Some of them
are:

• Initial Learning Program (ILP)
• Foreign Language Initiative (FLI)

HR’s involvement is imperative to
improve overall performance of an
organization and is considered an
integral part of an organisation.
