It was my first company. So, being somewhat biased, i do have a soft spot for it.

Dislikes

Work culture is not good. The compensation is poor, and the hike is pathetic. Employee retention was not great. You are expected to work like it's your own company. There is nothing wrong with that if the compensation compliments your work. Promotions were dependent on project politics and not 100% based on performance</mark>. Also, advancing your career depends on how much time i have spent in the project. For example, lets say that i have worked in a project for two years, and have been one of the top performers that year. But, if I changed my project before the promotion cycle, then i might not get promoted in my new project. This is because my new project manager has other people to promote before me. so, my cycle starts again. This was my experience. so i switched for good. And that had been a right step toward my career development. Good place to start as it offers job security, but you will be saturated very soon. However, based on the work, i believe that compensation and hikes can be better. Also, another thing. I have seen good people leave because of the compensation. New people were hired with more money (if the rumors were true), and they were not up to the standards. It told me that if i demand a hike keeping the market standards in mind, it will not be provided to me. For example, if i gradually move from L3 to L1 support, my compensation will not be as to what a L1 support engineer receives. They would rather let you go. In a word, your dedication and involvement towards your work will completely be overlooked, but you will be expected to perform the same way....Read More
