I am an current employee of Astrazeneca Chennai ETS division. 1. No job security - 108 FTEs with experience ranging from 5-15 years has been laid off citing org restructure. Most of them are top rated and best performing employees. So even if you are hardworker the odds are that you may be ousted with short notice if you are unlucky. 2. Political playground - You have to be in the good books of your senior manager and other leaders, else your work will be rewarded to someone else who are their favorite. The top level director/assoc.director/Sr.managers will not resign or move teams as they are comfortably placed and they are just passing days for their retirement. So if you try to bring any innovation or changes you will simply be ignored. 3. Gender bias - Completely biased over woman employees, I know this happens for diversity but the luxuries and biased treatment for only lady employees is way too much here. 4. HR Crooks - Without any notice the management decided to take away all of our Variable Pay(VP) money from employees by modifying the policy to deny VP for the employees who resign or separated on the date when the VP is credited into your account. Yes you read it right, not even prorating some % every month, its a complete washout. No opinion sought, simply they executed this draconian policy midway into appraisal cycle just to arrest the attrition. So if you were working hard thinking you will receive the VP declared to you in the CTC you are just wrong. 5. No Onsite - If you are a bootlicker to your onsite manager and in very rarest of rarest case you might get onsite. 6. Lethargic mindset - most of them will not work or maintain the process even if you escalate to their leads, complete govt employee mindset. By this you would have got idea how useless the HR and their Teams are, many other things are there but I think this will sum up! Once which was an fantastic and a proud company to work has now been started to go down due to a low grade HR team....Read More
