Work life balance is good. Job satisfaction is also fair. Company pays fair enough. I am not satisfied or I should say I am not impressed with the appraisal procedure implemented by the management. Post 1 year no appraisal at all or the performance bonus. They have their own way of doing it in the month of July or August and it doesn’t matter when you have completed 1 year.
Dislikes
Appraisal and performance bonus payout .

Ratings are provided based on opinion of others rather than the performance of an individual for whole year. And hikes are automatically affected because of this.
