TCS says no office, no appraisal, cracks down on staff ignoring WFO rules

Tata Consultancy Services has pressed pause on appraisals for some employees due to non-compliance with its work-from-office policies. The company had significantly updated its attendance requirements over the past two years — now requiring employees to spend nine hours in the office and sending alerts when they fall short of four hours. The final appraisal follows an annual cycle after the employee’s work anniversary and begins with a formal initiation of the process.
