I love working with Wipro, as it provides many opportunities to enhance skills and encourages learning new ones
- Skill development - Excellent+4 more
Dislikes
In Wipro, there are a lot of salary deductions, and the appraisal percentages are not very high, even for hard-working employees. This is the main reason for leaving Wipro, although the working culture is fabulous. If we want to lead a fulfilling life, financial growth is essential, and that’s the only reason for leaving Wipro
