One drawback of working at C-DAC is the lack of a fixed promotion structure. Freshers join as Project Engineers, but promotions to roles like Senior Project Engineer are rare and depend on project needs and management decisions. This can make career growth uncertain.

Nothing is there to like here. Poor management. Especially the current executive director Mr. Kalai is more like a dictator.

Dislikes

Forget about the work life balance. Lot if work pressure. ETG section is the worst with the worst possible managers and group heads. The day starts with threatening messages in WhatsApp group by the group head. Promotions are dependent on how much of a slave you are. They expect you to be in office for extra hours and on weekdays too even if they don’t have any project.

You will get to learn a lot of skills, salary will be on time, get leaves

Dislikes

Managers are noisy, every task they want in 2 days, they'll give task on Friday, ruin you weekend, no work life balance, higher authorities promise unrealistic timeline to client and pressure employees to work day and night, delayed appraisal, but cut your salary in time for being late in office

Liked the other fellow contract colleagues and stuff. You get to do R&D if lucky and get assigned to good project. will get better leave policy from other org. Can be good for early stage individual trying to break into job market, but not good for staying long term.

Dislikes

From job satisfaction to learning stuff, everything depends on the team (it can vary very highly, some of the managers are very difficult to work with) and project you get assigned to, and that assignment is mostly random. It will be either deadlines galore (feels like not that of real value, it feels more like pressure tactics for visibility) or very long stretches of benching but you can at least self learn at that time. Feels more like a mismanaged early stage startup without any concrete vision. Egoistic...Read More

Work life balance is extremely good, you don’t work extra hours except few rare cases. If you are a fresher then this is good entry point into IT industry.

Dislikes

You will work on old and legacy technologies. Lack of management and coordination among teams. No work from home flexibility.

Scientists on the higher level will hire their relatives through third party and they will think they are running the office. regular employees will think they are supreme.
