Very flexible towards employees. Good behaviour, always helps junior employees for upliftment. Very good salary structure. End year rating and review is average but percentage of salary hike rate is higer than any other MNCs. It’s really a good side.

Dislikes

Work life balance is poor. Promotions, appraisal process is average. Job security is average.

Dislikes

Almost everything. Like no growth even after working like hell with mostly poor projects. Never trust the offer promises, variable amount is only written in paper , you won't get it for 2 years and after that they will give you like 80-90% of the incentive promised. About growth its better not to say anything, If you have quality you will suffer from depression. Its like pre planned. If you joined from other company they will give you the worst rating regardless whatever you do. Even after years they have no intension to appreciate one's hard work and contribution. Once the company policy pushed like the employee is too experiance to ignore a promotion , yet the management will drag that 2-3 more years.. at most they can. <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;"> About Job security</mark>.. I don't know about data science or machine learning projects (if any) on cts but for other development works one will feel like working under contractor. Every 3-4 months you have to search for new project. And the time limit is 35 days. If you don't get any project within the time period you will be fired. And the project search is all on yourself. And the funniest part about CTS is when you resign then the higher management calls you telling you that they will give you a hike also a onsite opportunity. Myth. There are lot more cons to talk about. In the lockdown periods they sacked an average of 100 employees every day. Higher your package higher the chance of getting sacked. Lastly, If you are interested to not to work.. or work in support only then join cts. If you have some ambitions and if you really want to work and grow then my suggestion would be a big NO....Read More
