Zensar Technologies Software Engineer Reviews

Likes

Working at Zensar Technologies was not a good experience for me. I was working with a leading South African Insurance and Financial Service provider. There are some good points I would like to highlight about Zensar: 1) Onboarding and Induction: Onboarding and Induction was very smooth and quick. 2) Onsite Opportunities: Good possibility of going to Onsite (Cape Town or Johannesburg) for short term (3 to 6 months) if your Client is based at South Africa. Some projects also allow onsite on rotational basis. 3) Lot of Cultural and Fun Activities: If you love cultural and fun activities then Zensar is a good work place for you provided you work load is less you can enjoy alot in the Office Premises. Although the premises is based on old construction asthetics but still you will enjoy the events but again the infrastructure is average. You will probably meet a lot of fun loving and happy go lucky people here. 4) Company Vision: The company has a strong vision towards Digitisation and Connect. The have alot of inhouse Android apps but it sometimes get very annoying but there is alot of scope for Mobile Application developers here. 5) Work Life balance: Work Life balance is average but it depends on the project you get. I have seen alot of other colleagues enjoy their life in Zensar. 6) Covid Situation: Zensar Family is very caring about their employees. During Covid Zensar put alot of effort to get their Employees back to India and arranged many Vaccine slots for Employees and their immediate family members. Work From Home is also being promoted in Zensar. 7) Lot of Options on Food Card/ Food Wallet: You have lot of Food Wallet options available here like Paytm Food Wallet, Zeta, HDFC Food Plus. Monthly 2200 rupees can be taken as Flexi Food Wallet allowance but it is adjusted in your CTC...Read More

Dislikes

While Zensar is good about other things but I did not found it very helpful for my Career Growth. Following are some points that I disliked about Zensar and would like Zensar to work on it. 1) Very Less or No Learning: The quality of projects in Zensar is very bad. There is hardly any niche technology that I used or worked on in Zensar. Most of the people in my ODC were still working on Cobol and Mainframe. <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;"> 2) Appraisal and Promotion: Appraisal is not very transparent or fair</mark>. You will hardly get around 3-5% hike and promotion again depends on favouritism of Senior Management. 3) Salary: Zensar only pays good at the time of joining for lateral entries. Average Salary in total with a Variable Component that depends on your Salary Structure. Variable and Bonus payouts are always late, don't keep high hopes it is always less percentage for disbursal of Variable Payouts. 4) Hectic Work: The project work is quite hectic and you may have to extend your time on most of the days to support. Comp offs are hard to get, our Senior Management also asked us to work and support on most of the weekends too, but it again depends on your project. 5) Shift or Overtime Allowance: We never got shift allowances, even though we were working in Evening Shifts. Shift Allowance totally depends on your Manager but they usually dodge it. Another unexpected thing is 25 rupees paid per hour for overtime. This is such an insult to the employees and the Overtime sheet takes months to get approved...Read More
