There is so many training facility. Employee benefit / facility is better in respect to other company and it is also good for one who wants to be involved long time with L & T-S & L.

Dislikes

(1)There is a difference between the committed CTC (as per appointment letter) and actual salary in hand. Because there are so many hidden rules, accordingly the net salary is become too less after deducting that type of hidden cost. (2) There is no any large scale project. So that ther e is no any job security for most of the employee. In this situation, many employee try to relocate to another company for the stability. (3) Regarding the leave , there is suffix and prefix system, that's why the employee who came from different state , have to face problem. As per company's rules and regulation, PL (Privealage leave) will be evaluated depending on basic salary but LOP (Loss of pay ) will be calculated depending on gross salary. (4) Most of the person who hold senior level or management post , may say to improve or build the the new one for facilitating the present and upcoming project but they can not accept the built up or newly one system even after getting approval with validation. (5) In office culture, it is clearly appeared that there is difference w.r.t behavior and provided adjustable facility between two Gujarati and between one Gujarati & one from other community or coming from other state. (6) There is almost negligible increment w.r.t the other company. (7) There is so many diplomatic character and environment rather than the actual involvement for project and further growth of the company....Read More

In the particular office I worked in, there was diversity of talent and energy in people as it was a new setup. It was a bit mad due to so many different backgrounds, but it was easy to get more done from same number of people due to this vibrancy and have new ideas. We had an office leadership who made sincere attempts to bridge the old LnT 'compliance to seniors' culture with a new 'argumentative and vibrant juniors' world....Read More

Dislikes

L&T S&L had a lopsided compensation package - over 35% of my CTC was paid through post-paid shares (stocks), with a further 2 years service demanded after these shares were released. I joined Kolkata office with a long term perspective. But when their office was discontinued at Kolkata in little over 2 years and I chose not to take a transfer and instead left the job (i.e not a normal resignation), I was denied by employer of 1 year of shares and then further refund part of money for the year I had taken shares...because the Company enforced the "2 years of service after due date of shares" clause. This, after investing 11-12 hours every day (no OT) to set up the office as team lead and then HOD. <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;"> L&T S&L did offer me a position with same pay at new location (which is a LOSS) but that was it</mark>. They qualify as bad employers to me for making employees face such severe financial loss for THEIR OWN inability to sustain an office at a location! Also, they had archaic 6 day weeks, no OT....Read More
