Macleods – Not a company but godown
One of the worst companies I have ever worked with.
1. Lot of buttering….If you don’t know buttering you will no longer be in the company. Everybody right from the VP Sales and marketing to the executive keep on buttering the owner or president
2. Even if you are good at work, they can fire you any time if you dont agree to their views. I personally witnessed 5-6 examples
3. Head office is worse than godown. 4 people seats in area where only 2 can sit
4. No canteen, forget about canteen, it doesn’t has separate place for eating. So you have to eat on ur table and then all cockroaches will come to give you company. They don’t believe in pest controlling
5. Don’t believe in their promotional video (as its not HO but shot in one factory) as well as website
6. Totally dictatorship
7. This is the only company on the earth which substracts your time from the total daily timings if you go out for short break for 10 mins. Example – you came at 9 am and u have to complete 8.5 hrs…Thus you can leave by 5.30 pm. But if you go out for 10 mins, then you can leave only by 5.40 pm. Else half day/half salary will be cut
8. For new joiners- they will promise you some package (but they never give hard copy, all verbal communication), but once you join, you might get a package less than your previous company. I personally witnessed 3 examples.
9. Salary may or may not come on time. To add to their foolishness HR will send you an email “please maintain balance your account for EMIs”. These idiots don’t understand that for 99% of the employees salary is the primary income and the employee is dependent on their primary income for EMI
10. “Employee friendly” These two words are joke for them
Only Positive
When you work in worst condition, you can work anywhere. So If you want to work in worst conditions, Go ahead....Read More

It's the best company for those who have less skill and don't want to grow. Best for retirement.

Dislikes
So many things;
1. You will not get appraisal if you joined after 1st April. (They promise you give you 5% after probation i.e. after 6 month but after 1 year at time of Annual appraisal they will deduct the above 5% saying they gave you advance increment even if they above 5% was joining increment.
2. You will be trapped in the office, no roaming in lunch breaks, you will realise the security have more power than you or your HOD.
3. You will never understand the HR policies be it leave policy, appraisal policy or anything, HR will say everything is mentioned in HRMS but you will never find it.
4. Your HOD have no practical power even if He is VP/CFO/President, the ultimate power stands with the Management
5. You will be using MS Office 2013 (If you are lucky) otherwise it will be MS 2010
6. Your TDS will be deducted randomly and when you fight they will say, claim in ITR.
7. There is no place to sit and you or your whole department will be thrown here and there as per the convenience of HR/Management.
8. The whole company work on Manual document, there are people who can't even use basic excel formula like Vlookup.
9. Nobody knows what needs to be done, instead everyone will push the issue to other department.
10. Owners don't care about staff, if they don't like you they will send you home (Even if you are VP)
11. If you stay in the company more than a year then you can't leave it because now you can not survive the real world now as you are using outdated technology and you have outdated knowledge.
12. There is no scope of WFH and there are strict timings,
13. No dress code, come in T-shirt or Jeans even on working day
14. Company collect benovlent fund from employee but will not send the money to deceased employee, instead will you the fund in business for new months. Also I have heard they don't send the whole money collected from employee.
15. There is no top up in insurance, further if you used insurance and it was not cashless then forget the money for 6-7 months, even though the insurance company will provide the fund and you will get the SMS from insurance still Macleods will not give back the money to you (Earn interest on you insurance money).
If you feel the above statements are wrong, fine. Join the company and get the answers by yourself. Don't worry you don't to intimate about leaving if you are on probation.
I will keep on updating as I relax and recollect the information....Read More

Nothing to like here worst company to work for.
Dislikes
If you want to make your life hell then only join this company. Even if you are jobless and cant find a job still dont join this company. I regret each day WHY i did join here.
AC is switched off from 1-5pm.
No water in water dispenser.
No canteen.
The lights are turned off after 6pm.
The floor and table is not even cleaned in a month.
The dustbin plastic is changed once in 2 years.
Absolutely no hygeine, 1 washroom per floor which is dirtier than public washrooms.
Mosquitos in the building.
The ceiling leaks water in rainy season.
The owner and management does not give a _ about employees and treat you like shit
No HR in the building.
No additional perks are provided.
If you take leave your salary is cut.
If you want an yearly increment you have to sign a bond of 2 years compulsory or else stay at the same salary even after joining 3 years.
1/3/5th Sat working but they call you on all saturdays + expect you to work on sundays as well.
There are more number of cctv camera than perks provided.
Using cellphone during work hours is not allowed.
And after all this if you say something against management they might take you to court.
Better to be jobless then to take this job even if its the last job on earth, WORST Company, Macleods.
Even jail is better than this....Read More
