Full ownership of products, although you'll be running from pillar to post to justify where your time is going.
Dislikes
Micromanagement, very bad employee culture, lack of coordination or collaboration, poor compensation and increments, bleak future outlook as the company's revenue figures are not growing

Very hard to find positives here but if one HAS to come up with something, we can say that there is a lot of opportunity for people to get their hands dirty when it comes to working on projects. You get no guidance or feedback and need to figure stuff on your own. A constant push for ownership will keep you running around addressingevery little task even if it is outside your scope. Since you will be held accountable for every single mishap that happens anywhere else in the company, you learn to be on top of things.
Well, at least you can come out and say that you were "forged by fire"....Read More
Dislikes
1. Managers who are insensitive and lack accountability - they will throw you under the bus when something goes wrong but seldom give credit when something goes right. They lack professionalism and basic courtesy. There have even been instances where the employee was expected to complete some task when they were on leave for bereavement. Multiple good resources have quit citing a particular manager as the reason and guess what - the manager was promoted to senior manager while the resources have been let go.
2. No replacement for people leaving - this results in existing team's burden increasing without a corresponding increase in the reward for them. This results in more people quitting and hence perpetuating the vicious cycle.
3. Moving the goal-post when it comes to achievements - despite having regular check-ins wrt expectations and requirements for promotions, people constantly find themselves being told that "you did X, but you were expected to do X+Y". When X+Y is done, they are told that "the actual goal is X+Y+Z" and so on, thus ensuring that no one is eligible for promotions, while simultaneously getting more work extracted.
4. Constant shuffling and restructuring of the team combined with a steady stream of exits make it a very unstable work environment.
5. Gaslighting to make people feel like they are not good managers and that they will not make it elsewhere.
6. Employing threats to get work done - "your confirmation will be put on hold", "your hike is on the line" are some phrases one can expect to hear every week, especially around year-end.
7. Lack of structure for promotions and hikes. Leads to a lot of dissonance amongst the team members.
8. Impossible deadlines with no OT or comp-off - invariably, you will be expected to work on all saturdays and sundays (because of some release or the other) but you cannot expect comp off or OT....Read More

Management could be better, work culture also could be better. Old employees could be treated as better. HR was biased and doing lot of politics.
There is no job security. Not understanding people issues. Doesn't care about employees growth.

My name is Sohag Majee I worked in CAMS for four years, I was forced to resign,HR Shivamani and HR Namrata are forcing employees to resign and blackmailing them to resign or CAMS will blacklist them from getting further job,so out of fear many employees have resigned, this is cheap company politics and people like these are destroying the company, strict action should be taken against them.

I like nothing about CAMS.. Full politics and the disgusting thing is even the Juniors will influence u with the politics thinking they are the big shot and production machine in the team but they are not… they are “0” and they cant even survive if they relieve from CAMS. The managers should act as a bridge between the management and the team mates. But here the managers will insist us to follow the management rules even it is not legible to follow as per the Govt rules....Read More

1. 11 Management trainees of my batch suffered and all 11 of us faced set back in our career since we had to make domain change - first of all MF Ops is an unwanted profile in job market with CAMS being a de-facto monopoly and we will have to switch to other domains or banking/bfsi operations. 9 out of 11 management trainees exitedwithin 1.5 years. 1 worked for 2 years and another 2.5 years
2. Management trainee model was a flop at that time with poorly designed(not sure if they learnt a lesson after so much attrition) - we were told that we will be trained cross functionally across purchase, brokerage, lien, SIP , CS etc. But once I was deputed to my function after 10 days of induction, HR didnt look back on us and my incompetent manager mistreated me like anything, started yelling at me right from the beginning and ensured that I hated the job
3. Lot of politics with poorly paid APOs, POs, and SPOs had their own vengeance against me
4. Work life balance was terrible - I came to office at 9 AM and left at 10 PM apart from my 1.5 hrs commute . If I come at 9:30, my SIP manager in ICICI unit would yell at me.
5. I reported all my problems to HR, no action was taken. HRBP has never visited the floor....Read More
