This is not a good organization at all. They force employees to work 10 hours on daily basis with constant working productive. It takes 4 hours to up down to office from home. 14 hours in a single day, Also the management system is really very poor here. They have been holding the night shift allowance from last 6 months also force to do over time which amount again comes in 3 months. Worst working culture full on pressure of work. Your career is also not safe here as I have been working here from last 2.5 years, They have moved me and my team in to 5 pillars till the date and in the last They have laid off thousands of employees without any valid reason. In the name of promotion we get only Rs 1000 in 2 years. All good and fancy things are only for showcase and fancy emails, when it comes to apply those good things they are least bothered about that. I was doing shift from 5 pm to 3 am in the morning, the move their cabs 3.30 then it takes more then 1 hours going back to home. If in case you have last drop then it will take 2 hours including everything. In short this is not a good company to work with. 10 hours a day this is really disgusting. I really wish someone from their clients read my comment and take some action against them. They are just using the people in need as rhey know there are not such good offers in the market currently due to inflation worldwide. They choose india for a good Hotspot as they get cheap labour here but they don't even pay that amount as well. I remember they mention about our package from package amount it self they hold the amount of 20k which is our amount technically and should be paid in the form of salary. Then they do the drama of a score card by pushing employees for more and more work by pressurising them in return they would give us ratings from 1 to 5. You what on the basis of ratings they give our amount back to us in the form of bonus. Which is also not full amount. If they give 3 Stat rati g they will Gove you bonus of 2k from 20 k amount rest 18k amount is in their pockets and shares distributed peacefully amongst the higher authorities. This is how they are sucking blood of middle class people who have given their 39 years of studying just for this shitt? I really don't understand this. Very very broken...Read More

Nothing to like. Terrible company.

Dislikes

Apparently employees are not getting hikes and promotions because the CEO needs 170cr salary. The managers and HRs will never listen to you. My manager has not even once tried to contact me. Projects are so bad. Only support work.

Since Ravi joined as CEO everything is CTS downfall started. Earlier we used to get hike twice a year. Now we’re working on same salary since last 1.5 years. Earlier we used to get minimum 7-8% hike in every appraisal. Now after 1.5 years we got only 3% hike in which top performers got 4.5% hikes. Ravi literally made CTS a joke. No Diwali gifts now. No free food in office. No cultural events celebrations....Read More

There is not much clarity on salary increment cycles and promotions. There are many issues in work from office too which should have been identified and resolved before calling people back into office.

Working here for the past 2.5 years where get various opportunities and project allocation in which working in execution team in EPS domain on Manhattan with a us based client as an offshore team and through it was wonderful.

Dislikes

As such no major issues I faced but ya as an organisation they can come up with some more fun activities and can work more for employees team building strength.

Wlb was good, leave policy was good

Dislikes

The project allocated to me was the worst in terms of learning and upskilling. A school student would have performed the same tasks I did, and in no way my manager would allow to move out of the project. Years of my life wasted there, on top of that 3 months of notice made switching next to impossible.
