..., you will have to look for another one on your own , else they will remove you. Used to pay fairly but is now as good as literally any other company like TCS, Infosys in terms of both work quality and compensation. No real way to move vertically based on merit unlike TCS.

... their employees. They have a very good L&D team. Culture wise it's really good. They have very good pay structure. Office timings are really good though it depends on project to project. Higher management is very skilful and very transparent. They used to share all the details to their employees. In short they believe in open culture. They give value to their employees and will do everything for employee growth.
