Firstly they say we'll have a permanentship, then they will say "No! There is no openings". I'm an intern here for 6 months, tomorrow is my last day of work here. Secondly, they'll ask you for address for diwali gifts then give excuse "Ohh! Sorry, this is not applicable for interns". Thirdly, they'll ask you to work for 9 hours(including lunch) then they'll give you so much pressure so that you have to work from 9:30 am to 8:30 pm (sometimes I had to work till 10:00 pm also)....Read More

I had fun working at Prime Focus Technologies (PFT) since I joined the company because I was good at writing the content they provided. I had a good record amongst the senior excellent writers and gave my best to achieve success in what I did for the company.

Dislikes

I absolutely hated the senior members of the board for not being communicative, especially the guy, Gajendra Singh, who was or still might be in the team lead. He has no clue how to work with a team and is a disgusting, fat fellow who can't even write. Some other team leaders also had no sense on how to control and lead a team.

I loved the stress free work culture and how everyone cares for the other in the work place and recognise your efforts and help you develop from your mistakes!

Dislikes

Nothing that I dislike actually. But the time taken for full n final settlement when you resign is being reported as 60-75 days, but I guess this reaches the employee sooner!

The work life is good! It's not too burdening. The work is also not monotonous and a bit more interesting compared to others!!!

I worked at the company for several years, but the experience has progressively worsened under the current leadership, particularly CEO Ramki Sankanarayanan. His decisions seem to be based solely on personal preference, with no real vision for the company’s future or betterment. Ramki does what he wants without any consideration forthe long-term goals or the industry’s rapidly evolving technology. His direct reports are equally out of touch (the "YES" gang) —bad managers who are more focused on securing their positions than fostering innovation or growth in the company. If you're someone who is technically skilled and passionate about the Media & Entertainment industry, you will find no growth here. Ramki and his leadership team have created an environment where deserving employees are sidelined and career assassinated and opportunities for advancement are nonexistent. They’ve even resorted to paying employees to post positive reviews on social media platforms such as Glassdoor, Happy place to work and various others, which is utterly disingenuous. It’s frustrating to see such blatant mismanagement, and it’s clear Ramki is not suited for his role. In addition, we, a group of long-serving employees, have witnessed severe issues within our department under one of the female head of Digital Media Services and Content Localization. Her leadership is characterized by favoritism, self-serving decisions, and a lack of strategic vision. Talented and competent employees are often left feeling insecure and unsupported, especially with her micromanagement style and disconnection from the actual on-ground realities. Despite working in the Media & Entertainment industry, she seems uninterested in updating her knowledge or embracing new technologies, leaving us behind competitors. To add to this, unethical practices such as misuse of company resources, conflicts of interest in outsourcing, and selective increments for her personal favorites have been rampant under her watch. Her decisions, such as hiring inexperienced individuals for leadership roles, only highlight her inability to strategically think for the future of the department and the company. Her proximity to the CEO has shielded her from accountability, which has damaged morale and compromised the company's success. Overall, leadership at the highest levels is weak, unqualified, and uninterested in fostering a progressive, innovative environment. This company has great potential, but without immediate intervention and a change in leadership, it will continue to stagnate....Read More

Great boss

Dislikes

It feels like the company is still stuck in the past. The traditional "Sir-Madam" culture makes it a bit awkward for someone from Generation Z like me. The long working hours are expected because it's a service industry, but the way people talk one way to your face and act differently behind your back is just weird.

There is nothing to like about this company

Dislikes

There are lot of malpractices going on within the company. The top management have created company on their relatives and friends name and giving the projects to them, in turn they are sharing the profit. There are layoffs but the top management's relatives are not touched even though they do not have relevant experience. HR is aware about these practices but also taking a cut internally.

Weekends Off, Work Timings are Good for the Inside Sales Department

Dislikes

The Current Senior Manager from 2023-2024, a female is completely toxic. There are a lot of politics within the Inside Sales Department. The manager will talk negative about the team members and expect the person in her team to behave that way. Many people from other team also join her in talking behind back. During Induction, she was least interested to introduce to other team members & they too because of her toxic attitude were not so happy to entertain her. Every new member who joins the Inside Sales Team, she feels challenged and can see that person as her competitor as she herself has average communication skills, less knowledge & fake accent. Do not waste your time joining the Inside Sales Department especially with this woman here. She can be searched on LinkedIn....Read More

The upper management won't let you grow. Increments are just the size of peanuts. micromanagement. Promotions and credits would only go to the VPs and BU heads just like rich getting richer, poor getting poorer
