Oh god, I dont know from where is should start. I wish i have gone through the review about this frim from this website and glassdoor. I will try to cover as many things as possible but long story short, do not join this firm. I will give you reason in the following para, 1. Manager with whom i am working is a shit. He treats us like he owns us. you cannot leave the firm before 7.30 this is a rule and culture is to sit till 8.30 every day. Yes, Every day even though you dont have work to do and from past 4 months i have been reaching home after 10.00 pm everyday. (side note- CAs working here informed me that they this situation is persistent since past 6 months) 2. Even if we are working late they dont provide us dinner to us. Everyday we get street food and mind you that i am ok with the street food but i cannot eat everyday. once we had asked him to get us proper food (not fancy pizza) he informed us to get it ordered and you will get this reimbursed. 3. Speaking of reimbursement, you will get reimbursement after 3 to 4 months only and that you will get once HR performs FORENSIC of reimbursements 4. Micro Management- Manager says that we take 3 hours break, one for lunch, one for tea, and one for snacks. This is totally rubbish. further who says such things 5. Lately i have come to know that CAs who are working here had to sign the 15 months bond and still they leave before the bond period because of work harassment. 6. In my 5 month of tenure, 7 CAs/semi/employee/articles had absconded and attrition rate is also very high. 7. Favoritism is pretty ostensible here against one community and they potray that other castes are inferior to them....Read More

I would have to restart my career to find one

Dislikes

I have let the firm long time back because of following reasons; 1. I wanted to pursue my career in tax and litigation and I had enquired with the HR that I want tax and litigation and it was informed to me that Mumbai branch have Tax exposure and after couple of day I enquired with couple of articles and CAs working there and I released that Mumbai branch does not have any litigations or tax filing. I am unable to understand that How come HR can play with my career without even thinking TWICE. I was lucky and I left the FIRM. 2. I was there in the firm for only 2 weeks and one thing which I realised the no one is happy in this firm. Articles where trying to take transfer from the firm, Employees who where working where counting days to leave the firm. (FIRM have e BOND policy and every employee is supposed to SERVE 15 months in the organisation) 3. Colleagues where informing me that OUT OF POCKET expenses take 3 to 4 months of time. Although this was my 1st organization and I had informed this to my Dad who himself is a working professional. He told me to leave the organization at the 1st place. This expense reimbursement timing itself is unreasonable said by my Dad. 4. I am mostly concerned about why HR had to lie to me about tax. It was a turning point and I left...Read More
