If you are lucky enough to get work related to your interest, only then you can enjoy the work here and feel satisfied. You will find smart people to work with but only at Engineer and senior Engineer level. Most of them leave after that since they realize that most of the folks at higher levels seriously lack the required skills and talent ....Read More

Dislikes

Managers lack leadership and technical skills. All they know is to give a foolishly set deadline and all they can say is to finish the work by then, They have no sense of how much work, effort and time is required for any task. They lack communication and leadership skills on top of bei ng terrible at management. All they do is cry, cry and cry. Salary is way below market level and on top of which they will find roundabout ways to deduct the salary. ex. they will give you low rating (specially for new joiners) and deduct 50% of your bonus and Stocks right away. A lot of boot-licking is expected. How much you can pamper your manager determines your growth. So Sycophancy is the most desired skill here. They don't care about your technical skills and background. They will give you some random work depending on the Manager's wish. The company executives do not have any technical knowledge of the system and they make the decisions based on only immediate need without any consideration for future business and prospects. The code is a complete mess. Multiple branches for each chipset causes too much of maintenance nightmare and they will make you stay nights just to be tangled in those branches. Don't even talk about testing and code review. Company boasts about many employee friendly policies but they have a different face inside. For ex. you will be entitled to many leaves every year, but you won't be able to use them at all. If you take leaves, your annual review will be impacted. So most of the leaves are just wasted at the end of the year....Read More

Stock program and appraisal increment is good. Employee benefit programs are great. Learning cure is good but for limited years say 2-3yrs and later it becomes monotonous.

Dislikes

Poor management. Micromanaging and politics in the team. Few Managers seriously lack management skills. Just being good at your work doesn’t gain promotion instead it depends on how well you boast your manager and say YES to everything. No one to supervise managers competence as it’s all rigged up the ladder. Some people comprise and stay just for the sake of stocks. Future prospects doesn’t look great. The con’s mentioned above are all from my experience in Bangalore embedded platform or core tech team which is part of CSR acquisition....Read More

Learning wise excellent and colleagues support was very good.Can share knowledge.overall the experience in gaining knowledge and work was excellent but we don't get much support from management.

Dislikes

I struggled a lot from beginning onwards with bad management but i never bothered about it and focused on my learning,gain knowledge and become expert on it.whatever management assigned me did all kind of tasks but they never gave me a chance to work on my area of interest.Management fo rcefully moved me to other team where my growth was stuck at that point.I faced many struggles but never stopped learning.But recently i was laid off due to politics.my manager and Director started targeting me without any reason and the management completely failed in proper validation.My manager and Director just spoiled my career growth.My whole family with my parents are struggling a lot but they never called me back after layoff.So this clearly indicates that they wantedly did it.So i would request the management for proper validation was done and also they should take the voting from all the colleagues worked with but should not depend upon the Director decision.I strongly recommend to take serious action upon the people who disturb the hard working persons,just simply don't work and disturbs the working environment....Read More
