Monetary benefits are good. Mostly no late evening calls.

Salary - Good
Work-life balance - Good

Dislikes

Company culture is very age old. If the leadership likes you, you're safe. If we raise any concern or question, we're done. False hopes will be given by HR and the team manager. Due to security reasons, we can't have teams and mail access in our phone. Even when we have a critical emergency, we're expected to inform through email or teams from the laptop. We should not have personal emergency situations. Even If we fall in any such situations (even closed one death), we're expected to report at the office immediately after the rituals. If we needed sometime to recover, we'll be replaced. Even escalation to the HRBP will be backfired. Investigations will be completely biased. Employee welfare is zero. It's not recommended to Join this company after experiencing in a good product based organization. Best suits for freshers and people who have experienced worst treatment in service organizations....Read More

Interview Tips & Stories

A Digital Markter

Got Rejected In an Interview, Just Because I Didn’t Answer a Personal Question

So, I got invited for this interview, and they told me to be there at 9 AM. Of course, I get there early, like 8:30, because I don't want to be late. But then I end up waiting for 1.5 hours. Seriously, they didn't even acknowledge me until 10. Then this HR lady calls me in, and she's totally unprofessional. She's like, on her phone, making personal calls while I'm sitting right there. And then she starts asking me these really weird questions, like what my nickname is, and what my dad does for a living. It got really uncomfortable when she started pressing for details about where my dad works. I mean, what does that have to do with anything? So I politely told her I didn't want to answer, and she actually said, "Then we can't continue this interview." I was honestly shocked. But instead of arguing, I just stood up and said, “Alright then.” And walked out. I left feeling pissed. Not only did they waste an hour of my time, but the HR rep was also rude and unprofessional..
