Dislikes

Lala company culture. You won't feel working in corporate. If you are good in pleasing boss than you will be good. Diffrence of opinion are fatal. Politics is very high. Company is in down cycle . Job cuts are frequent and they stopped employee engagement experience i.e. diwali gifts, get together, other benifit.

Till last year the company was good with some perks and benefits but this year they have started with layoffs in a big way. Plus the profile doesn't match with the kind work offered.

Dislikes

Favouritism. Plus layoffs this year. All major perks like free transport have either been removed or have been made paid. Company is not in good shape and is mostly cash strapped

India management have no idea of key decision taken in London. India management say something but opposite happened from London. FIL is going with crisis and will not recommend to anyone.

Dislikes

There is a significant communication gap between the India management and the London management. However, key decisions are driven by the London team. Due to cost pressures, the London management exerts undue pressure on employees, often leading to unprofessional treatment that keeps them in a subordinate position.

Dislikes

This place made me suicidal and started making me question my self-worth as a person. - Office politics in every department. - Favoritism towards certain employees. - Pushed to my absolute limits and still scolded for being unproductive. - The management made me start questioning my self-worth on a professional level. - They make you think that you are not doing enough and start comparing you to their favorite employees. - You get burnt out sooner than expected and are almost always on the verge of an emotional breakdown. Even thinking of leaving this place makes me much more happier than ever working again here....Read More

The company is actually very employee centric in relation to other companies. Although during the recent times Fidelity has been laying off people from offices globally.

Dislikes

Sometimes, the work load increases and it goes for all levels of management. Something that is concerning for the non tech side is the real time monitoring. Each and every task is timed and if you complete the task within the required time then you are productive. If you do not complete the task within the time then it reduces your productivity which can impact during the appraisal cycles because as humans not every instruction can be done within a specified time limit....Read More

Working flexibility, meal and transport benefits.

Dislikes

Toxic culture, head office in India is in Gurgaon and the expectation is to be Hindi speaking or else you will not be given importance. Long working hours, redundant manual work and a culture that is reluctant to change. Despite of slogging countless hours you will not be valued or appreciated.

Likes

Everything. Fantastic company..can be a dream company for anyone..the company from where you can plan your retirement.

Dislikes

Nothing . You can't dislike anything if you are working with people from other countries. Few can feel the politics if colleagues and Managers are from India

Work life balance with perks and benefits. Management is good. You hardly have to go to HR for any work.

Dislikes

1. They have to increase the presence in india. Vacating one place for another is not a good strategic move. 2. They should progress in terms of technology. 3. They have to improve medical insurance and those perks.
