Pros

it used to be a good company 2 years back. now days new maniac management & unacceptable HR policies have screwed it up nothing good.

Cons

-Long working hours - 9.5 hours - that is also monitored by a tool called empulse. -poor transport services. -Forget salary - take ur joining CTC as granted. it wont grow even if u spend decades here. -Fake promotions that only makes u end up with higher work responsibility but no better pay check. -Its loosing more & more clients - job security has gone. Currently people are being fired. -People matters only a tag line. People really doesn't matter. -You will only work here full fill ur manager's Goal, u dont have a goal. -Every year u will find ur project managers , BU Heads & HR bodies changing ( I guess they all leave after realizing the pathetic state ) & every time the new managers & HR people come up with new experimental idea that makes ur life more & more pathetic - all awards & recognitions are being cut down. - forceful movements are given -

Pros

Pretty flexible. It's cool if you get on a project with a good client, because honestly you will become like a low-class employee at that company who they all dont care about and expect you not to be around very long so if you can deal with that then you can try and have a good time with them.

Cons

Honestly can't believe the audacity and entitlement of the middle management at this place. For example, last year everybody got about 3% merit raises (not at all keeping up with inflation but still something). This year, they were working with the same pool of funds to work with for raises, but made a "business decision" to consolidate the raises to only management. The rest of us got nothing. And the TOLD us they kept everything for themselves. And in addition to that, they twisted the knife by COMPLAINING to the whole department on a department call that their bonuses weren't enough. Just tone-deaf and careless mostly.
