...d-19 when company is not making any business, company did not drop any employee. Instead of that they cut out the salary of senior management, while salary of low paying workforce remains the same. Further, work life balance is also good, 8 to 9 hours a day. Hardly, you have to stay for longer hours. Talking in terms of opportunity, as I was working in R&D, I got different opportunities to work with latest of the technology & projects in medical device industry. Also got a chance to interact and work with so many experts and doctors working in the industry. Because of that, also get a chance to travel sometimes, so that was a good experience with lots of learning.

...he management is growing and it applies from top level to bottom level employee. Now comes to salary & appraisal, as it all depends on your GM. What I observed at my time at Meril is that there is a lack of satisfaction among the employee in terms what are they payed. Like the one who is worthy enough is payed less while the one who is not worthy is over-payed. So if you are lucky one, company will give you high compensation. It's just that their appraisal system is not that good that's why this difference is there.
