Office is in good location. And salary is also good. It credits timely every time.

Dislikes

Before joining here, I thought overall its good. But too much work pressure. There is no job security. All tasks are P0 here. You will not have any worklife balance. No such appreciations as well. Seniors will mock you if you miss any single thing.

Nothing to be liked here.

Dislikes

Everything this is unstructured. No wireframe is provided, requirements are vague, there is JIRA but they don't follow that also properly if there is requirement change then they will communicate over teams or email. Architect is incompetent.

Still trying hard to figure out what I like about this company,

Dislikes

Headless manager, no WLB, you'd be forced to come at office. Horrible experience. No perks at all. They give lame excuses during appraisal. PIP employee for no reason. Please go for other offer if you love your mental peace.

Company's work culture is very good, specially for any fresher looking for little bit job security. Salary on time. No office time rigidity, as they focused on job done more.

Dislikes

Company's vision is still on old track. less innovation according to the market.

Likes

Talented people are here, If they are supportive you can learn very good from them. If you want to learn C/C++ then surely it is a good place.

Dislikes

I was part of different team during my duration so in one team manager and upper management was good so no politics but in other team this was no the case. Upper management are playing with employee by shifting it into one team to another in short period of time. Worst part is there is no appraisal and the variable part(bonus) depends on your management not on your performance. Also workforce is less so you have to put extra effort to prove yourself even after office hours....Read More

Dislikes

Work environment. Time management. Higher level management not understand lower level management works/how to treat good,how the employees should work. Not much hike less than 5% overall. Hybrid mode. Canteen (only Tea, Coffee, Biscuit & Namkeen) is there. Managers only want my task should be completed by EOD (means they are not checking whether office time is over or not). No Party, No Trip in a quarterly/yearly. Working 6 days a week(SATURDAY) although this is not in company regulations because on website it's showing SATURDAY & SUNDAY holiday but we are doing. Also if anyone are leaving before 2 years from Pinelabs they should submit there PineLabs bag also....Read More

Good ambience like cafeteria and masaagechair and game room

Dislikes

My team leader does not have manner how to talk with employees . On the days when there is no target, she asks all the employees to stay even after 7 pm. Earlier I had 2 Saturdays off as well, now all Saturdays are working, only Sunday is off, we need all Saturdays off as well. Now I'm working with stress.

1. Increment 2. Incentives 3. Reimbursements 4. Operations 5. Support function

Dislikes

No cons that i can remember. Let me explain 1. Company gives good increment from around 1% to 4%. And if you perform exceptionally well for qualifying a promotion (no set criteria is there though) you can get massive 5% appraisal. 2. There is an incentive for the sale you make. Just, there is a surprising element. You don't know theexact incentive earned on which product. And also, you don't even know when it will be actually credited to your account. And if it is credited to your account, you don't know for which product it is given and which products are left/not given. Our management do this to keep the things exciting. 3. Reimbursements are great. They are so detailed that no body can fool you. And the exciting part is, these will never get approved when you need these the most. There are no worthless concept of "time value of the money" in the company. 4. Operations are so smooth that you will not get any hurdles. Because to get hurdles, one must progress forward. Here nobody knows how the things are done, thus no need to worry about case closures. 5 Support function is so encouraging that one have to push himself to get the things done. There are many people to tell you that how you can accomplish something without a support from any other. Company will make sure to make you realise your potential by helding you responsible for every mishaps. See, when you do something good there are always people to take credit. But when things go southwards, it's the time that then you realise that you are a one man army....Read More

Flexibility. But flexibility here is a two way sword. Senior Leadership will not work with you in inputs, just expect output to come from your individual and your team's hardwork. Full DIY mode of new product/business development.

Dislikes

God forbid, if there is any disruption like Covid or Regulatory issues or Partner issues or Structural issues with any business - Senior Leaders will hang you on the cross [side-line / lay-off / quite firing]. Instead of helping the incumbent address the external issues they will take the easy and dirty way by bring someone new fromoutside to build the business. And they will keep doing it till they find someone who makes it happen....Read More
