Good HR policies on paper but zero implementation in real. Bias behaviour in every department, good pay scale but no job security and career growth.

Dislikes
No proper appraisal standards, higher management totally misguides company directors and wastes company resources. Totally cluless team on the R&D center. More than 100 year old company but still behind small companies in R&D. Laying off employees in name of cost reduction while taking no real steps to reduce cost, No job security for even most contributing employees. HR and management team blaming each other for recent laying off of employees while giving no proper reason for doing so.
