Some tech exposure that too without any proper guidance
There are much more cons than there are pros in this company. They will treat you like robots, keep pressuring with more and more work, burden your weekends with work, absolutely no appreciation and terrible work life balance. The managers and higher management is not at all cooperative, they only think about how to get the work done and never spares a thought about the employees and their mental health. Salary offered here is not just meagre with respect to the amount of workload, but also is a scam as a quite big part of your salary will be a variable bonus which they will never pay saying that your performance is not good enough. Getting leaves us difficult here and what's more difficult is getting a single day of work from home. Some seniors make life more difficult here and people at highest level of management keep coming into every daily small piece of work contributing to the "toxic work culture" here...Read More

Employer’s Response
Dear Employee, We appreciate your feedback and concerns and would like to take this opportunity to address some of the points you've raised about your experience at our company. We value our employees' well-being and strive to create a positive work environment, so we would like to clarify our perspective on these matters: 1. Workload and Work-Life Balance: Our employees have busy schedules, and we do our best to manage workloads effectively. We intend not to treat anyone like robots but to ensure we meet our commitments and deliver results. We encourage employees to communicate their concerns about work-life balance with their supervisors so that we can explore ways to improve it. 2. Appreciation: We take employee appreciation seriously. While it may not always be evident, we have various recognition programs to acknowledge outstanding performance and contributions. We encourage open dialogue to address any concerns regarding recognition or appreciation. 3. Salary and Variable Bonus: Our salary structure is designed to be competitive and fair within the industry. Variable bonuses are tied to performance metrics, but we follow a transparent process for evaluation and payout. If you believe there has been a discrepancy, please discuss it with HR, and we will review your case diligently. Performance pay is a common way for companies to motivate and reward employees for their contributions and achievements. It is an effective way to align employee efforts with company goals and objectives Some Facts About our Performance Pay: Performance Pay Percentage: Our performance pay is only 12% of the monthly gross income. This means that if an employee’s monthly gross salary is $X, they will receive an additional payment of 12% of X as performance pay on a quarterly basis. As the name suggests, performance pay is tied to an employee's performance. This means that it is typically based on how well an employee has performed in their role. High performance is often rewarded with a higher performance pay. Currently, employees who are eligible to receive performance pay have received it according to the company's policy 4. Leave and Remote Work: We offer a standard leave policy, which employees can avail as needed. Regarding remote work, we assess such requests on a case-by-case basis to ensure that they align with the nature of the role and business needs. Here are some data on the remote and weekend work: Remote Work (WFH) For last six months • There were 251 WFH request granted. • 71% of the people have worked from home Weekend Work for Last Six months • 16% of the people have engaged in weekend work for past few months. • Weekend work is related to our product that is football fantasy app which was scheduled for a release. As it did not happen the team had to work for few weekends. Please note that the weekend work has been compensated with immediate leaves on weekdays. Leave Usage for the Last Month • 79% of the people have taken leaves during the last month • The total number of leaves taken by these individuals is 84 days Furthermore, we continuously evaluate and adjust our policies based on evolving circumstances. 5. Interference from Senior Management: Our senior management aims to provide guidance and support rather than interfere with day-to-day tasks. Strategic decisions and not micromanagement often drive their involvement. We will work to ensure that this balance is maintained. We understand that no workplace is perfect, and we are continuously working to improve our company culture and policies. We value your input and encourage open communication to address these issues effectively. If you have specific concerns or suggestions for improvement, please feel free to reach out to HR or your immediate supervisor. Thank you for being a part of our team, and we are committed to making your experience here a positive and fulfilling. Sincerely, GeoTech

Team members and some of leads are very helpful Good work environment Exposure to new technologies
Variable pay is totally misdirection to show a big CTC because you are not going to get 20% of variable pay

Employer’s Response
At GeoTech, we strive to foster a positive work environment with growth opportunities. We're glad you appreciated the supportive team, work culture, and exposure to new technologies. However, we’d like to clarify the performance pay structure, which may help address some of your concerns regarding variable pay. Let me take a moment to explain the purpose behind the performance pay, so we can all be on the same page about how it works. When new team members join GeoTech, we begin by discussing their expected salary, or commercials. Based on the interview performance and the potential we see in the individual, we set the corresponding salary. If the figure is close to what the candidate expects, we have an open conversation and usually come to an agreement that works for both sides. You might recognize this process from your own experience. Now, here's an important point: While this salary is discussed upfront, the performance pay is not revealed at the same time. It's only when you receive the official offer letter that you'll see the details of the performance pay. This pay is designed to reward you for exceptional performance—for going above and beyond your standard responsibilities. For those undergoing appraisals, similar to when you joined, we discuss the fixed CTC (cost to company) first. The performance pay is not part of this discussion during the appraisal process—it’s always intended to be a separate reward for exceeding expectations. So ideally, the salary is for Meeting Expectations and the performance pay is for Exceeding Expectations To put it simply, your fixed salary is there to compensate you for meeting expectations. The performance pay is the extra recognition and reward for exceeding those expectations—for delivering work that goes above and beyond. Now the performance pay itself is split into two key components: · 70% is based on your performance—your contribution and quality of work which exceeds expectation. · 30% depends on the overall company performance, aligning our team’s efforts with the company’s success. This ensures that we are all aligned in our efforts to support the company's growth and success. If you consistently exceed expectations and deliver outstanding results, this performance pay is our way of recognizing and rewarding your exceptional efforts. We truly appreciate the hard work and dedication that goes into this, and it's important for us to acknowledge and reward those who go above and beyond. We understand that this structure may differ from typical variable pay models, but it allows us to recognize exceptional contributions fairly. We appreciate your dedication to GeoTech, and we're constantly refining our processes to ensure our team feels valued and rewarded for their hard work. Please feel free to reach out if you have further suggestions or want to discuss your experience in more detail.

Employer’s Response
Thank you for sharing your feedback. However, we would like to clarify a few points. Firstly, we do not have a "Junior HR Executive" position in our organization, and we believe this might be a misunderstanding. Secondly, our appraisal process is structured, fair, and performance-based, ensuring all employees are evaluated on their contributions and achievements. We strive to maintain a positive work environment and encourage open communication to support our team's growth. We are committed to continuous improvement and welcome constructive feedback to help us enhance the employee experience. Please feel free to reach out if you have further suggestions or want to discuss your experience in more detail.

Salary increment is good
House of disaster. If you work here for 6 months your mental and physical health is just gone. First of all the management if you just do a tiny amount of mistake they take take the issue to court and lawyer. Second all the team leads is very rude and they didn't help you even if you are a intern.. They put you in a project for one week then suddenly they put you in. another project.. you have to work here almost 24×7...Read More

We appreciate your honest feedback and are glad you've acknowledged the positive aspects, such as the salary increment. However, we've carefully considered your concerns, and we would like to address them to ensure a better understanding of our work environment 1. Four-Star Rating: I noticed that you have rated us with four stars, and while we appreciate the positive rating, we are eager to understand the specifics of your evaluation, especially in light of the significant concerns you have raised.

Your detailed feedback will contribute to our ongoing initiatives aimed at enhancing the overall workplace experience. 2. Legal Proceedings: Legal matters can be concerning. It's important to note that our legal involvement is primarily a response to reported instances of employee misconduct that necessitate disciplinary action. Our commitment to maintaining a transparent and healthy work culture is paramount, and addressing misconduct is an integral part of upholding that commitment. We strive to ensure that all team members can work in an environment that promotes professionalism, integrity, and respect. Legal actions are taken judiciously and with the aim of preserving the well-being and integrity of our workplace. We believe that this approach is essential for creating a fair and accountable atmosphere for everyone on our team.

Management and Team Leads: Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your interactions with our management and team leads. We value your input as it helps us identify areas for improvement.

Project Assignments and Workload: We want to emphasize that our operational framework follows an agile methodology with sprint planning. The essence of agile methods is to create a balanced work environment that supports the well-being of our team members. It is not our intention to impose a continuous work expectation, and we are genuinely concerned about any indication to the contrary. We will assess our processes to ensure alignment with our commitment to work-life balance. Your feedback is invaluable, and it helps us identify areas for improvement. If you are comfortable, we encourage you to contact our HR department to discuss your concerns in more detail, allowing us to address specific issues and work towards enhancing your overall experience.

Nothing to be liked at all. Do not join this company ever.
This is one of the worst organization to work for . the leadership lacks the necessary experience, technical skills, management abilities, and even the basic qualifications to be in their positions. Instead of leading effectively, many individuals seem more focused on pleasing the CEO, Kaushik Khasnobis. Subhankar Biswas: More interested in currying favor with the CEO than actual work. Known for taking substances both in and outside the office, even during work hours. Sankar Prasad Biswas: Was unqualified for his role, insecure and lacked knowledge of the IT industry. interestingly despite being favoured by the CEO and even receiving the best lead of the year. Once he left the CEO said he was not a good lead. Sounak Roy: Another leader who prioritises flattery over competence . Holds an MBA but lacks any real knowledge of software testing. Relise on google searches to feign expertise but contributes little of the actual value The HR department is another concern. Sreyoshi Ghosh is rumoured to have an inappropriate relationship with the CEO, something that many employees are aware of . Meanwhile her main focus is micromanagement and cooking meals for CEO in the pantry.Sayan her subordinate helps her in micromanagement. The CTO, Amit Thakur, presents himself as highly knowledgeable but in reality, he contributes little beyond storytelling. He enjoys talking about his so called technical expertise but provides no real support or guidance. As for the CEO Kaushik Khasnobis he has spent the last seven years trying to develop a fantasy gaming app, Real Fantasy team , but in reality it has no more than 7 active users. The apps development has been stagnant due to lack of skilled developers and proper leadership. The mobile lead, Arnab Kundu, frequently boasts about his experience but lacks fundamental understanding of agile development and sprints. The company is struggling with projects currently down to just two with one nearing shut down. They frequently set unrealistic hiring targets growing from 60 to 100 but end up being 40 from 60 . In summary, joining this organisation would be a waste of your time and career. The lack of real projects and toxic work environment and incompetent leadership will hinder your professional growth. Avoid this company if you want to learn and develop your skills...Read More
