working at ciklum is a rollercoster of excitement and suspense.
The highlight? Being part of the thrilling game of employee roulette, where layoffs were as unpredictable as the weather!
The management's strategic approach to employee retention is absolutely mind-blowing! It's like a game show, but instead of prizes, you get a pink slip and a heartfelt farewell email.
The consistent layoffs will make your work feel like a revolving door - in one moment, you're here, and in the next, you're updating your linkedIn profile.
For those who enjoy job insecurity and an adrenaline rush every day wondering if it's their last, Ciklum is the ultimate thrill ride!...Read More
Dislikes
Avoid this company at all costs! Don't leave your current stable job for a few extra bucks, you will soon be a victim of layoff as soon as your project ends here. This has happened to most of their employees in India and abroad.
I am having an absolutely horrendous experience dealing with misleading promises from the start, their promises are as empty as their ethics. The culture here is toxic, with dishonesty and deceit ingrained into every aspect of their operations.
And if by some miracle you have a concern and decide to reach out to HR, forget about it. Emails disappear into a black hole, never to be answered. The lack of responsiveness is a clear indication of how little they care about their employees.
Ethics? Nonexistent. Culture? Toxic. Honesty> Nowhere to be found.
If you value your sanity and career, steer clear of this Ciklum. There are plenty of other reputable companies out there that actually respect their employees....Read More

I've been with Ciklum in India since the beginning of their operations here. In my experience, this is a very caring company that offers plenty of opportunities to learn and grow. We have a very strong team and I appreciate my colleagues' expertise a lot. No bureaucracy, you don't need to report every single step you take at work. The salaries are really good. Pay attention - there is a possibility to work remotely....Read More

All the five start reviews by employees are forced by Ciklum HR team, even i added one review, they will follow-up and verify whether the employees added positive review or not. I hope we can understand from this about the Ciklum India.
No long term projects
Main focus of the management is just to show 1000 as employee count by doing acquisitions
Hire and fire, even they released offers and revoked it
Irresponsible India HR and Product engineering head
Only India head is good but under him worst leaders, first he needs to fix the actual problem...Read More

Worst company I have worked with. No company culture. Office politics. People with 2 and 3 years of experience will become managers and team leader who doesn't have any knowledge and just do micro management and bossing. They will ask you to come office daily. They will ask to to work on weekends and also stay late in office. No projects atall. Half of the company is on bench. They hire freshers to save salaries and no value to experienced people. And many more bad things...Read More
