No mobility between teams. Kind of stuck to same team forever. Pay is well . Tech stack can be legacy since most are legacy products Integrated with aquired products.

Dislikes

Conventional mindset of indian management.

...es aren't tracked like service based companies. But there will be fixed timings. Salary is on a bit higher compared other similar product based companies. Hike percentages will be around 10% (first two hikes will be 12% and 16% for freshers). Job security is good. Cost cutting will be done by removing amenities or delaying the hikes, not by laying off.

Dislikes

Work satisfaction will not be there. Very old product. No platform to learn new technologies. Learning new skills is not a priority. Timesheets need to be submitted at the end of every week even if there isn't much work. It will taken very seriously. Will be a bit difficult sometimes. Company culture is still age old. Need to call everyone 'sir' and hierarchy is still there. Managers aren't friendly but helps much technically. Seniors hangout with seniors only.

Work timing: we need to connect to US Employees at night sometimes. Job Security is like you never know you are fired.

Good I like that there are good projects available. If you get that great you will get experience and knowledge.

Dislikes

1. Salary and hikes are low. 2. Poor employee welfare activities, once a year they take you out for team lunch. If you missed then nothing, no gifts, abs nothing, saving so much money but gives back nothing.
