It may vary project to project and management to management. My previous project experience is very bad due to the management only. My current project , client and management is quite good.

Dislikes

There is no skip level meeting happens and I found HRs are already teamed up with the management.

Likes

I believe working in a company is totally depends on the project team with whom we are working. As per my team experience I don't have any issues with the people and the culture of the company. The teammates and seniors around me are helpful and also the manager is good, he always motivate us to grow more.

Dislikes

Some time when somebody need to change their work location for the clients need then company should provide sufficient facilities which company does not provide, this is something which is unexpected.

Its completely dependent on the Manager you are reporting to, but ideally the evironment is not great. The senior managment doesn't know how to lead by example. They are trying to enfore work, they are in frenzy
