Piramal Foundation Reviews

Likes

1. It is a good place for a fresher to start his or her career. But after 2 years, one needs to switch 2. Work life balance is there 3. Good team to work (my team is good, dont know about other teams)

Dislikes

1. Very less salary which is equivalent to a data collector or volunteer salary in an NGO sector 2. No appraisal cycle and very less increment with exponentially increasing responsibilities 3. Senior management is least bothered or never does one on one to discuss about your career growth or your ambitions 4. Very less space to learn. After 1 year, it is a mundane job

The best thing about working in this organisation is that you get to explore things on your own. Nobody's imposing their ideas on you and you get hands-on experience about work culture and skill sets you need to build.

Dislikes

Even though it's a CSR initiative, the work culture here is purely corporate. If you haven't planned out the roadmap for yourself, you are going to have problems while seeking assistance
