Work life balance

Dislikes

The management displays clear favoritism, often making last-minute shift changes and denying requests for work-from-home or leave without proper reasons. In some cases, they include false claims in warning letters for reasons only they seem to understand. Contract workers face unfair treatment unless they continually appease the managers to get what they need. Salary discrepancies are prevalent—favored employees receive higher pay for the same work, while others encounter issues during performance reviews and pay hikes. When we ask for work-from-home due to long commutes, we're told to take leave, only to later be criticized for taking too many days off. The inconsistency is frustrating. They also send formal emails for trivial matters, like stepping out to collect a food delivery.

Hygiene is another concern—there have been instances of worms in the water filters, and some employees do not maintain basic hygiene standards in the washrooms. While badged employees, especially those on their notice period, are often left unchecked for not working, contract workers—especially the quieter ones—face disproportionate scrutiny for minor issues.

HPE has been a fantastic organization to work for, especially with its focus on open policies and a strong emphasis on work-life balance. These aspects have helped me maintain a healthy balance between my personal and professional life, which I greatly value. However, given the highly specialized and segmented structure of teams, the scope to explore multiple technologies within a single role can be somewhat limited. While this approach ensures deep expertise in individual domains, it can sometimes restrict exposure to end-to-end workflows or broader areas like DevOps, which require a more cross-functional perspective...Read More
