Dislikes

In our team, technology stack is old, legacy. No plan for employee's growth and upliftment. Offshore senior people will not give you enough visibility and will not be given your due credit.

Dislikes

THere are periodic rounds of firings due to cost cutting/restructing. So there's always a sense of uncertainity. Also the career growth plan is very obnoxious. There is not clarity around it. Your manager has limited control on your future growth.
