The appraisal system dropped drastically in couple of years. Very minimum salary hike with high ratings.

I could have said that they are the paymasters and you get your salary after taking all the unreasonable pressure and tension but from the past 2 years getting a salary was a big question. When are you going to get it and how much will that be? Systems and organizational structures would change so frequently that there is zero certainties about anything but the chaos and unnecessary conditions to fulfill other than your work to get your salary.

Dislikes

Chaos, chamcha culture, people in the leadership team would do everything to be there and maintain the ecosystem that rots this extremely high potential company. In pure lala culture, everything depends on mood swings. Deserving people would not get promoted but a handful of people who are the yes sir army would get promoted. No work life balance. Absolutely zero faith in the employees, you are just sent to the factories for the sake of abiding to random instructions irrespective of your requirement to do so and contribute. People in good positions hire submissive and less talented employees in order to make sure that the output is always sub standard and they are never challenged.

Since it's a Tata company, you will have job security like no other company if you are in a permanent role. Work life balance is very good and if you are at Pune location, food and commute to office is free. Timings are also flexible and so is your role. As a GET you can get into whatever role you want to get into company and make a career out of it.

Dislikes

Salary is less than market, appraisal is bare minimum and the growth is very slow. Work environment is like semi government.
