American Megatrends "Job Training" Reviews

Likes

Good for people with electronics background since they are basically a firmware company. Job security. Good pay (for laterals). Flexible timings. No issues with leaves.

Dislikes

No proper processes. Bad food court (not that suitable for vegetarians). No cab facilities. Not recommended for computer science folks (software people) because you'll be put into their service-based division, which is worse than the other sweatshops out there. Too much micromanagement from top management till bottom level. No w ork life balance. If you try to balance work and life, the leads will make you feel guilty about it. No recognition for hardwork. Menial work. Only legacy maintenance/support projects are there. No new learnings. People coming from startups may feel better but people from big MNC's or product-based companies will be disappointed and feel cringe. The team leads here will escalate petty issues to higher management, like non-availability for just half-an-hour or so. Only people with slave mentality can work here. <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;"> No proper training for freshers</mark>. Freshers are mapped to projects with irrelevant skillsets and exploited to the core with low salary and 3 years bond. Stupid and cringe-worthy appraisals. The culture doesn't feel like a software company at all. It's a glorified export company/factory. Here, more than your skills, the amount of Story Points you contributed (agile methodology), decides your worth. The client teams assign more work with less Story Points. And u have to literally beg them to get more Story Points. Coz here, not billing hours, but only Story Points go for client billing. Management gets mad if any of the stories are moved to next sprint. Notice period is 90 days and salary will be held during last 2 months of notice and settled only during full & final settlement. No WFH policy at all in general. Management & HR are forcing WFO. Think twice before joining, coz once u get in, u get suffocated and it's difficult to get out....Read More

The best part of this company is the learning opportunities. The company recruits mostly freshers only and a majority of development work is given to these freshers after a small training.This makes it great to learn by doing yourself.

Dislikes

After you get experienced like 3-4 years the pay scale is very very low compared to other companies. Also the team work culture is not very open as the team sizes are generally small.
