TCS has ‘good news’ for IT pros in the US

Amid the layoff season, Indian IT giant Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has good news for IT professionals in the US. The IT giant has announced plans to create 1,200 new jobs in the US by the end of 2024. The Indian IT company will create these jobs in the state of Illinois, along with accelerating its STEM outreach efforts in local schools to cover 25 per cent more students and teachers.

“I am thrilled that TCS will be expanding their footprint in the Land of Lincoln—with over a thousand jobs being added over the next two years,” said Governor JB Pritzker. “TCS’ expansion is a testament to our first-rate education system and our extraordinarily talented workforce. With their STEM Education Initiatives, the next generation of Illinoisans will be prepared for the innovative jobs of the future—jobs that will transform our state into the premier tech hub in the nation. To our partners at TCS: thank you for your commitment to the State of Illinois. We couldn’t be happier to call you our neighbors,” he added.
