There's nothing impressive about this company. The fact some reviews highlight timely salary payments as a positive is overrated. A punctual paycheck is just a basic expectation and doesn't compensate for the company's overall shortcoming
"Blenheim Chalcot is the undesirable offspring of a modern exploitative company and the East India Company, merging today's greed with old-world exploitation" Here's a critical take on the Company: - They'll hire you with a title like "Junior Data Scientist" but then pile on task that have nothing to do with your actual job description. - Channeling the spirit of the old East India Company, a select few exploit their colleagues, and if you voice concerns to management about you work scope, their response is dismissive, suggesting you leave because this the only work they have. - They hire data science leads who are shockingly inexperienced and fundamentally clueless about requirement gathering and problem-solving. Yet, when a junior question their flawed ideas or points out their inadequacies, these leads erupt in a dramatic display of wounded pride and ego. - Complaints made through skip-level meetings achieve little, as the company is content to tolerate problematic managers/leads as long as their goals are met. Employee may even face threats of poor reviews if they try to switch portfolios, ai it could reflect poorly on the leads themselves. - HR is unlikely to offer genuine support: expect either empty promises or outright disregard. Many competent HR staff have been pushed out due to internal politics. - The company might pressure you into "voluntary resignation" under the pretense of performance issues. One week, you might be lauded as the star performer, only to be dismissed the next week, no job security even if you are a dedicated employee. - Salary increases and/or promotion seem to reward sycophancy rather than actual performance. If you excel at flattery, you might secure a better raise, job security, work from home, regardless of your actual work contributions. - Despite investing in new offices spaces, the current office is poorly equipped, with cramped canteen where employees must wait for a spot at long tables with uncomfortable stools I joined this company to make a career switch, only to find myself starting from scratch with no meaningful experience as a Data Scientist. This is my experience; it's up to you whether you take it into account...Read More

1. The learning curve is decent for freshers/ experienced people especially for them who have just started their journey in LLMs/ Data Science 2. Timely Salary 3. Colleagues are helpful
1. Management has been changing every now and then due to which work gets affected. 2. Bad politics into picture. All the SLTs have been laid off due to some unknown unknown reason. 3. No reason howsoever serious it is would suffice for WFH. Strict WFO policy. 4. Clients are moving out of the company rendering less resource requirements that is leading to abrupt lay offs.

Blenheim Chalcot places a high emphasis on personal and professional development. They maintain a heathy work-life balance. The HR team is always available to address any concerns and ensures a smooth experience for all.
There is not option for remote work, so we are required to work from the office five days a week.

The work lofe balance and culture is excellent. Office infra is great as well. They support for finance and insurance perks are a great addon.
Management and leadership is incompetent and pretty terrible at their jobs. Petty office politics was prevelant for promotions. No job security.

Good Life Work balance, Salary is decent
Management 0/5 Culture... huh, no such entity exists, What else? Favouritism, Superb office politics, Don't know for what role they are hiring, ie. pilot hired for cabin crew's job. Job security: anytime you could get a HR call for a quick meeting, they could be your last 30 mins in the office. Nearly impossible to say why you are getting fired.

Like how they mess with your head. Like how 3-4 seniors are playing a plotting game for their survival and growth. Very entertaining to see. They pay you very well so that you dont leave them even though frustrated. You wont get a high paying job like it so easily in a stable or a good company RUN AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY
Difficult to find a day when you would be stress free. RUN AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY Firings Toxicity Plotting And bad location. bad canteen

The talent acquisition team is good however since one of the member left the type of events they did were worst. The qualityy went from high to zero not even low. Apart from that, only perks if you’re not working for customer service, you can roam around if you’re bored and spend time on terrace. The ambience is good and management is good if you’re good to them.
You have to be someone’s favourite if you need to get your work done. Lol, managers gets confused about the leave policy. Your approved leave can turn to Loss of pay only because of MANAGER’S CONFUSION, and they call them “people’s manager”. No one is yours if you happen to do something wrong as I said you need to be someone’s favourite. No speech on work life balance, you’re asked to work over time if there’s backlog and if you for some reason do not want to do overtime, they mark you down on your score card as you do not come ahead to support team....Read More

Nothing.
1) The monthly salary is way too little. Get ready to be underpaid if you want to work here. 2) Office is full of politics. Get ready to deal with lot of office politics. 3) No job security. You could be terminated without any genuine reason of yours. 4) Your line manager will force you to report for office everyday. There is no concept of hybrid work here.

A few people who are new in organization and have come from good one, hence are professional. The tenured one are too rigid and old school.
There is definitely no job security, no matter at what level you are. No flexibility for work from home, even if you die. Leaders do not have clear vision hence always confused. You can only survive if you shut your mouth and close your eyes and say Yes to Mr CEO, (who is too moody that his reportees are always scared to talk to him).

I like how they try to be cool but aren't.
Firstly you will like the environment & you will survive if you don't speak up. There no corporate culture here, its like a close friends running the whole business. One thing about the company is ANY THING CAN HAPPEN ANY TIME. Be ready to get laid off, be ready to see your junior becoming your senior. They all listen to you but then you will be targeted. NO BONUS, I mean 5% increament? Are u serious? And the FAVOURITISM, OMG its in the DNA here everybody who is important is a known of other important person. There no criteria of hard work only CONTACTS work here. People who really wants a change are replaced East India co. as we call it. They don't give bonus/ increment to employees but replace them with someone new with a hike. People just leave this organisation in 6 to 1 year max. And if they stay more than that they'll surely leave after the increment. Advice to Management: Stop hiring referral of leads, managers or colleagues from previous organisation....Read More

If you work at Navi Mumbai office you have a good work life balance but that doesn’t last! Soon they will start calling you at Andheri office even tho your contract says Turbhe office. This is very your life start getting terrible at Blenheim Chalcot! And if you don’t accept to go to Andheri you will be fired same day and you have to handover the laptop.
If you are joining Blenheim then you have to join with acceptance that you can be fired any day without even single day notice! Yes ofc they will promise to give you two months salary which you probably will need to file a case to get it there!!

Small perks and treats like choclate brownie, sweets, snack party, popcorn.
Toxic culture, unapproachable management, no logics from managers, unstructured portfolios. Lack of automation within the process. Your opinion and suggestions doesn't matter. No security of job. Unplanned lay offs. You get paid for working in two or multiple roles in one roles salary. No open forum to have complaints or resolutions. No refrral system works out even if you send 50 referrals.

Salary package is good Salary on time
They don't have bench policy... So if you're project is over, you will be thrown out. They fire 10 employees every week. Noone can say anything that's on thier mind else their name will be put in the weekly firing list. Policies are written but not followed, they can fire you without notice period even if it is in your contract. Any reason is fine to mark you down if the management or thier chelas don't like you. Appraisal policies are not written down, every week some new implementation comes from leadership and management/employees are told to follow irrespective of the reason being logical or not....Read More

1. Timely Salary & a few managers
1. Management 2. Sudden terminations wave where almost 30% of employees were asked to leave in less than 6 months. 3. Minimal Possibility of growth 4. The sudden management decisions 5. You would think of security but a client makes a decision to hold on to services and you lose your job 6. The location is too weird to travel with public transport so good luck.
