The company is in Chennai and in big office location. Very good office with various features. Salary is paid on time, you dont have to followup like other small contract companies. They identify manager before itself so when getting in project itself you know the person. Easy to connect. free snacks in office. coffee is top notch her e. They keep doing HR fun events which is good....Read More

Dislikes

The expectations set when you join and in reality are so different. Hike do not happen. Every year they pick a reason to defer the salary increment cycle by 1 or2 months no arrears paid. They don't have systems in place yet so excel work only. They make slow hiring decisions. My offer came in 2 weeks but they sometimes take longer for other people. They have invested in practice but when I speak to my account manager for doing POC for a client they did not even bother to respond. This was 4-5 months back. After that my project got over. When hiring they say they say they do work for many clients but when I ask for interview to another project they simply asked me to move away from the job saying no role is there with any client. This is a bad place to work for. Why hire when project is short term. I was just fired with a phone call not even courtesy to meet and tell. DO NOT JOIN for better money. Your career will take a full stop if you join them, I will never work for a indecisive company like this....Read More

I worked for a major bank customer of this company. Just 2 months back I was awarded Best employee award but now since my project is ending in August they recently gave me notice to exit company. Pathetic point is they try speaking about my performance. When I confront they changed tune and say project over. I am trying to speak to my manager but he has no idea how to deal the situation. If there is no multiple project why do they hire people. May be just to get billing only. This is body shopping company. All lies when they say they have many client with same technology and all. At least my previous company told clear clear it is just staffing role and they can exit me anytime. Here in this Optimum company they give false promise and cheat people....Read More

I have worked in 3 companies so far and this is the place I will never return to work

Dislikes

The salary company optimum and client CTOS did a mass layoff sometime back and I am also impacted. They keep on hiring and keep on firing in few months. Reason they give is performance. But we are the people who are working very hard and smart and without our team the project will not even be in this shape. Someone is giving fake commitment within client company for timelines and to save them they are blaming us. Never a good culture both in client place and salary company optimum....Read More

They have the ability to attract good talent to the company. I also enabled that culture during my term also. For all staff aug roles they give different end date for IT and Non IT people which is also different for different account making people joining easy. There is no one policy they have set this, based on what client demand th em to do end date is determined. Salary is sent first day of following month. I have seen some agency company dont pay on time. These guys dont have such problems. This agency company pays salary on time....Read More

The company has no idea what they are doing. Many times they suddenly run behind one client. Then when escalation falls they drop any work for the client. Again suddenly they get busy then stop. This stopping and starting business means you dont get good focus on clients can lead to bad perfor mance etc</mark>. I was fired because my recruitment data is bad. The company has no system and when you reason with them on delays they simply say ' pls find another job'. They fire people at the drop of a hat. They have no consistency to speak to recruiters. Each manager run their own process. I was asked to leave in Mar 2023 suddenly 1 day. When asked they say last 3 months no good. I said last 12 months data is good I got 20 joiners they said they are only looking from Jan 2023. One time they see India financial year April to March suddenly they will change the game and say let us see calendar year 2023 like other foreign companies. The team has not thinking on their own. My peer who performed lower to me for full financial year survived and they fired me. It is because last quarter was good for them. There is no incentive to perform for full year if company sees only last 2-3 months performance. I was rudely informed to leave the company. I will find another job I am sure but what happen is a real low for company. Many of my fellow recruiters were fired recently 4 months back. Reason is laughable. Company has random parameters to measure. While I am doing recruitment most client billing people still speak to us even when their project is over or abouts to getting over. When I was recruiting we told billable people that they will be kept in bench and deployed if needed. However things have changed in company. When a release date comes they directly fire people with no plan to reuse them. Feel very bad because I am unable to keep promise I made to people when hiring them. This is not the good company from 2 or 3 years ago. I have a long list but annual increments are one area that dont happen in company once you join....Read More

They gave 3.5 lacs additional CTC so I did not join a big India IT company

Dislikes

They offer good salary but there is so much questions about future. I joined in Dec 2021. I was put in a client project. Once they put in client project they wont meet us. So hard to reach anyone in company for payslip doubt insurance doubt. Account Manager was not of help. HR we are able to reach. They also do calls ebery month. pro blem started this year. No hike came (rs 9000 annual hike for 15 lac salary level). When ask they said company did not make profits so we are giving less hike. They keep on saying many people in company got zero hike but I got some some hike<mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;">. In appraisal client rated me the best still no hike</mark>. Now my project is getting over and company said me to exit same date in october when client is releasing me from project. I myself then asked client for extending, they say they cannot do extending for optimum company resources as we are no more vendor here. I ask manager if they know it before. They said yes, They know this for long time but did not work to look for another project for me. They kept billing and now fired me. Now I am rushing to find a job. Very bad approach by the company....Read More

Worst company ever! People who are joining for projects, pls think it through..they don't have too many projects and if your project gets over in 3 months... they'll terminate you. I have had to let go around 6 people in my tenure of 6 months. Ceo puts people on PIP because they were interacting with their colleagues in the office..apparently it's a distraction. They believe in micromanagement. there is no minus rating available, otherwise I would have given that. No faith in employees....they believe people are not working unless they butter the management up. No credit given to someone who works hard and deliver results, instead they ll give promotion to people who sugarcoat things and butterup the management . Terrible experience...Read More
