One good thing about Harman is you can directly have a word with the higher authority people and their response will always be satisfactory

Pathetic work life balance, Toxic culture, worst managers with one and only skill i.e micromanagement. They don’t invest time in employees skill development

Good Work culture and work life balance, you will learn a lot.

Dislikes

Higher Staff do politics In Harman International pune, Maharashtra. They form a Maharashtrian cluster and they don't want someone from other states specially from North side get promotion or good appraisal. When i was in harman all the guys from UP gets very less hike and didn't get any promotion. At last if you are from UP don't gopune office choose any other locations. You will get appreciation for work but nothing else from this....Read More

As johndeere client, no any likes are there.

Dislikes

If Johndeere is a client, don't join this company. Mobile phones are not allowed inside the office, it's like being jailed. It's like slavery. Johndeere makes every decision, including hikes. You will be harrassed by Johndeere leads a lot. Their work is also given to you.

Hard work pays off in terms of appraisal or getting retained. Employees are not forced to come to office but depends on your reporting manager.

Work-life balance as there were limited resources in the team.

Certain policies in Harman are good and they have nice work life balance

Dislikes

No Company growth or personal growth, in the recent 3-4 years, only Germans are taking over and it is now turning out to be a German oriented company and many people are quitting, atleast 1 each month in each division at an executive level, this shows how poorly the performance the company is able to sustain

Salary. Best Manager Exposure. Onsite opportunities a lot of.

Dislikes

Work life balance is poor. Expectation is to work 24 hours a day. Seniors are expected to work for 2 person. My team only had 2 interns. Burn out. Management thinks we shud close all bugs in one day else get ready for the bash. Lot of intimidations happen in meeting.

You will get what ever salary you ask. (50, 60, 80%) hike on your current CTC.

Dislikes

No personal life, 24x7x365 job. And Boss is GOD in this organization. What ever he/she said, YOU HAVE TO DO. One of the most pathetic You join healthy and physically fit but after some days you start facing health issue like: headache, BP, because of work pressure.

Hybrid work policy Less micro management

Dislikes

Harman has various verticals. Like DTS, Lifestyle and Automotive. I'm specifically talking about Automotive. Harman automotive underwent a management change 2 yrs back and this year alot of people were fired. I do believe management was more at fault as they were unable to bring in sales and customers. The appraisal is not in the hands of an employee anymore. Employees are assigned to spaces decided by the manager and if the spaces perform you are lucky else the hike goes for a toss irrespective of the work you have put in your day to day job....Read More

This was the first company where I saw Indians held senior roles & behaved equal (sometimes superior) to foreigners

Dislikes

Maybe it was specific to my VP but the work environment was very toxic. Women were treated as secretaries. Because the team is global, work was 24/5 & your work was not recognized or appreciated, it was taken for granted. No support from HR, they only reacted to the VP.

JBL speakers and headphones for diwali gift

Dislikes

everything other than JBL speaker as gift. They will be fooling you around by promising good hikes and promotions and when it comes to fulfill it they will come up with some other story. No growth at all. I feel like wasting my precious 3 years on them.
