Pros

Salary package was decent - but only after I declined their initial offer which was 40K less than my going rate. Laughable that they low balled so much.

Cons

* My role was predicated on a lie. I interviewed for a Senior Network Engineer position. During the course of 3 interviews they 'twisted' the role into having me join the Managed Services department with a 50/50 split into project delivery/engineering. In the first month I did 100% MS work only. I called management out on it. They responded they needed me at MS for another 3 months while they onboarded/trained more MS 'offshore' staff. I gave them another month to see if they'd honour their word. We reviewed again and I got the same excuses again, but this time with the added twist of 'there isn't enough project/engineering work currently'. I told them I'm not doing another minute of MS work and to honour the original job description when I applied for the job - they exercised their probationary exit clause. Sayonara. * Documentation - All over the place. No-one knows where any documents are. Each person stores documents in different Sharepoint folders for each customer. * Onboarding - Here, read this document. Congrats, you are an expert now with this customer. * My MS manager didn't bother to even reach out in the first month to see how I'm integrating. When he did finally reach out it was to put me on the on-call rotation.

Pros

There is not a single positive thing I can mention about this pathetic company.

Cons

Here comes the list :- 1) Worst management 2) All Politics No Work 3) They cannot sustain an employee for 6 months and portray as if they are the most employee friendly company 4) Disgusting HR who has 0 knowledge of employee retention and policies 5) Bootlicking (Chaploos) people being promoted to Head level within 1 year as they only say “yes” to everything and work as donkeys and keep snapshots of employee teams status to later use against them while firing unethically

Pros

Its a fun place to work and learn Good salary package as per industry - Mohali Great timings - early shift Monthly team events Quarterly Parties with all staff Annual Gala for Awards, Rewards and Recognition. In the past year or so there have been many positive changes in the organisation which have led to the management rebuild their strategy and vision for achieving long term goals. The company has expanded to various geographical horizons from Melbourne & Sydney to Dubai and Saudi Arabia. Hence the exposure to the work which you'll get is extensive. There is a lot of learning and development on the job and the Leadership always promotes the employee for various certifications and get on the job trainings which is sponsored by them. The management ensures to have a monthly review with all of the employees and does understand their concerns, if any.

Cons

Early shifts might not suit everybody but once you get used to it then its the best. I've worked in UK and US shifts as well but ASPAC shifts always felt better
