Just a little fault in the star is the growth side and this is especially in some specific department only. Also the appreciation and rewards people are getting in other department, it doesn't happen to all.

This organisation doesn't believe in proper on-boarding and buddy system for new joinee. Everything is bad as they believe in Hire & Fire policy. These guys will pull you from your stable job and then fire you and unstable your life. Please rethink before joining this pathetic organisation.

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
