Tagline: The bench is shrinking. So is single-stack expertise.
Intro:
In 2024, TCS noticed a surplus of Java-only developers, but the projects were shifting to Python, microservices, and low-code platforms.
Solution:
- Internal “Tech Reboot” campaign
- 30-day learning paths:
- Java → Python cross-skilling
- .NET → Low-code tools like PowerApps
- Selenium testers → Cypress + Playwright automation
Tech Tools Used:
- TCS’s internal LMS + LinkedIn Learning
- AI assistants for code refactoring suggestions
Outcome:
- 20,000+ developers redeployed within 6 weeks
- 40% of bench-time eliminated
- ₹100+ crore in retention savings
Why It Matters in India:
In our IT industry, “deployable” means “relevant.” Skills = currency.
