Organisation needs to focus on reskilling long runners , especially grades 70 , 80 and 90. Most of these middle management are outdated in terms of technology and ways of working which influences work environments and culture . Philip’s needs to follow lean processes and decommission PEPF which is outdated .

Most work in Pune is on sustaining Engineering, very less work on NPI and advanced development. Core Tech folks can stay away. Huge pay disparity between similar experience employees. Dept to Dept wise also too much variation. Grading system is unclear. New Jargon of "Diversity" candidates -promoting females for specific roles. This is contrasting to equal opportunity employer. Recent growth outlook and recalls have damaged brand reputation badly....Read More

Big MNC... Deep pockets... They pay you well and there is relatively less work pressure... Work from home.. No fixed timings.. No tracking. They give you some work and leave you alone. Up to individual work ethics to see a project to completion or spin loops to get away from doing anything...Read More

Dislikes

No job security. India is the donkey work hub. No one in the leadership team has any authority or any idea on what's going on. Work flows from NL or US and they may decide at any point that they don't want work with Indian people and then entire teams are laid off. Reorg happens every 6mnths. You could join as a head and after 6mnths you are probably working hand on on some task unrelated to what you were hired for. Policies all confused... Basically India org is a compleye mess and is only managing under a strong brand name....Read More

HR policies, salary brackets, employee retention policies , team changing policies,are all from stone age. 5. Everything is governed by HR policies that don't work in reality. 6. Fresh engineers can get compensated more than experienced engineers making it attrition heavy bottom .....Read More
