...ch benefits are there, the company fails to recognize and promote decent talent. There was a monetized incentive program[apart from perf bonus] earlier, which got scrapped, the pay is on the lower end of a decent scale. There are some okay-ish benefits like medicals, annual checkups, vaccination drives, external gym membership[subsidized cult.fit]. No free food in the cafeteria :p if that matters to you..!!
