Good leaders were either fired or left this toxic work environment. Those who r left are only here searching for a job and ready to Leave on that first opportunity they get

Dislikes

No job security. Crapy leadership. Pretentious attitude of thinking that it’s a startup, when senior leadership have no clue. Only buttering will take u any where in ur career

Only work culture is good, and good professionalism.

Dislikes

1. No job security, you can be fired anyday. They keep hiring and firing people throughout the year. 2. All decision are Sydney driven, managers and directors in India are just puppet of Australia management. 3. They established company in India just to get cheap labours who can work in shifts. 4. They just show like Macquarie is great company and reality is different. 5. No onsite opportunity. If you ask for onsite, you will be insulted on face by Sydney team. 6. After joining you will be asked to make fake good review about company on LinkedIn or other sites. 7. Strict 9 hours office....Read More

Work life balance

Dislikes

The quality of work at this company is below standard and Job security is not guaranteed regardless of tenure or position I.e HOD. The managers are well connected individuals resulting in negative political environment and mgrs are outdated individuals which can't get job in outside world. Except few individuals which are talented. Joining this organization may leave the impression of wasted time.Staying at extended period can lead to feeling stagnant and unchallenged. Opportunity are limited due to low quality of work and no promotion .In fact up and out are very common and standard line role become redundant .Sydney driven across the world same scenario. especially for young people stay away it restricts options for growth and learning....Read More

Timely salary, meals

Dislikes

Promotions not based on merit, rather based on gender and favouritism. Opportunities and promotions given to either employees within closer group of Gurgaon leaders or to female employees to meet diversity targets. External hirings at senior levels from HSBC and prioritizing them for promotions. Hiring process is rigged if you're from HSBC, despite the interview quality, HSBC candidate will be selected....Read More

So let me get this straight. Right now everyone in Macquarie is being recruited from HSBC. So the recruitment itself comes across as fixed before hand with ex-HSBC Senior leadership only hiring their ex-HSBC colleagues, ie their own kith and kin. Same goes for Promotion and Ratings. Macquarie was totally different just 6 years ago, merit used to appreciated but now it's exact opposite. Don't bother applying for this company if you are meritorious, high performer. You need to be from HSBC or a relative of HSBC leadership here....Read More
