Upper Management is very egoistic and they don't promote skip level conversion.
Poor leadership, favouritism, no criteria defined for performance review and appraisals.

They have some of the worst HR in the world. Very poor hiring process, for a normal starting level role they can take upto 60 to 90 days and after this much time they might reject you bases any lame reason.

It is like a Govt Company with good work life balance and Job security. They provide good food, Gym and pickup and drop from Home.
Technical stack is too old and company has a lobby of old people who stayed in the company for last 10-15 Years. It is impossible to convince them for any new good idea. They only wants to hire and promote people of certain caste and region, using abusive language is common in work culture. Most of the work is anyway done from Canada office and India office work like a service company for Canada employee....Read More

The perks are nice but if you do not get a good manager or team is it the worst place to be.
No support from manager They want people to start performing asap. If someone is changing their role , there is no proper shadowing or guidance. It is that you are on your own
