Great work culture, good salary and appraisals and a great work life balance. Work is also good.
Lack of ecosystem to support innovation and exposure to new set of technologies.

The company culture is excellent. People are amiable and helpful. They value their employees.
Sometimes the work-life balance may disturb & you have to work on weekends too.

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

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