Technology, development areas was good.
Dislikes
Lots of micro management, politics, toxic work environment. Managers always love highlighting people(who are just stealing some other developer's hard work credit). this manager's higher management is also influencing him to do so. No respect to non officers post.

Dislikes
1. Corporate Bullying by some superiors
2. Bad training by trainee
3. Abusive language by trainee
4. Seniors expect quick results from some analysts but not from others(unequal treatment)
5. Seniors egotistically complain to HR that I am attacking them with words although I am asking a doubt.(It is like they don’t know the answer tothe doubt; just turn it towards me)
6. No one was there to guide me to my desk on the starting day. I made calls to all the HRs (who had contacted me for the job) but no one answered. I somehow managed to get a number of a random person sitting in Bangalore who called the concerned person to get me. I had to wait for 1 hour in the lobby.
My manager was supposed to escort me to the floor but he was on holiday.
7. The IT team told me that the work setup will be delivered at home before my starting day. But it got delivered 1 month after my starting day. I raised many queries in the meantime. But my other colleagues had got their setup before their start.
8. The HRs did not pick or return my call till my starting day. There was nothing to get my queries resolved. They hardly replied to my mails asking for a callback.
9. The HR asked twice for my credentials for background verification.(And the senior expects me, a fresher, to be perfect at my work at the onset)
10. 3 of the seniors always pressurised me to be perfect because I am a qualified professional but did not pressure other analysts who had same qualifications as me.
One of them commented that I don’t look like I am interested in work and always on mobile even I wasn’t. I swear to God, I wasn’t on my mobile for more than 5 mins a day; but my colleagues used to constantly use mobile. Even though I was excited for work, the seniors demotivated me everytime.
11. All of my team colleagues were frustrated at those seniors. Even a colleague(considered fantastic in work) from another team refused the offer to be on my team.
12. They will promote only those people who are dear to them whether or not they are capable....Read More

1.Great to join if you are early in your career.
2. Salary & Increments are fine.
Dislikes
They follow a very rigid hierarchy structure. Seniors make opinions based on the views from their 1 downs. You can have all the valid points in the world but no one will take your opinion if you are a junior.
2. Too much importance is given if something is said by an onshore personal. Valid points are not a consideration then.

Old senior employees exploiting new employees. HR supports office politics and no workplace ethics.
No mandatory job rotation, which is causing people to stay with their loved ones and exploiting new comers.

Coddling up to managers is required to get ahead and promoted. Kind of starting to become like TCS management. Tons of middle layer management in India.

No knowledgeable VPs in Model Risk Management across globe. All VPs only learnt politics and do a kind of spell checker reviews. The one who does everything on his own never gets credit. Always create some nuisance.
