Nothing I hate everything here, 10 hours login in office, office politics which affects appraisal, delayed appraisal, No opportunity for growth as you can't change domain, hybrid model is useless for people from outside office city.

Dislikes

Gave me opportunity to start my career.

a qa project manager

Indian company offers

Are there companies in India that do offer packages based on experience and expertise rather than previous salary? Or is it only based on urgency of the position to be filled in such cases? (considering the field is not niche)
