The list is endless ...... * Most toxic place to work - Company has the worst management, is full of toxic managers who are sitting there since ages and only interested in minting Kongsberg's treasury. Not involved in any real job considering what they are paid, they come to office to smoke and to play politics. Few managers run othe r businesses and just work there for time pass, who don't have any idea about business and what their team is doing. Managers openly harass employees and behave rudely with women employees. And still the HR choose to be blind. Favourism is at its peak, only the ones who drink and smoke with their manager get promoted and despite doing no work. As a result of this, the business got impacted and company is in pathetic situation. * Sinking ship - The company is in utter poverty. They have shutdown one entire department - Digital Ocean which had the maximum strength (around 150 employees). And yet the management is not at all accountable. In 2023, more than 50+ employees were fired, out of which 40 was a mass layoff. Initially, in the beginning of 2023, 6 employees were fired and the MD justified it to be due to poor performance. KDI Bangalore's MD clearly announced on the dias that there are no layoff even though he was aware of it and the entire management and HR kept covering it up. One day, there were 40 roles eliminated suddenly. This list doesn't include any manager and their favourites. Silent firing is still going on without any proper reason. KDI will shutdown one day if the same continues. The company has budget for managers hefty paycheck but not to retain employees. Very much disorganised and no one has a clue about what will happen next<mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;">. * No job security - All current employees' days are numbered</mark>. Please don't join by falling for the initial offer, it's a bubble that will burst soon and you never know when your turn would come. You will have to undergo stress and anxiety each and every day. Ironically, company has budget for managers' hefty paycheck but not for the hardworking employees. Many talented employees sensed this and have already left. The only ones left in the organisation are those who can play politics well but do not real job. * Poor process - Starting from HR ops to project activities, there is no process at all. Some leads and people in leadership role take undue advantage of these loop holes and exploit team members. Small companies are always small not matter what CTC they offer. * Immature HR - The only thing they do is decorate the small and suffocating office space in the name of branding !!...Read More
