Very good organization for career growth. you will have exponential career growth if you start as a intern. Very strong position in market in Pharma domain.
Very Poor work-life balance due to highly ambitious managers. Manager never thought about actual efforts and just blindly committing impractical timeline to their boss and client to please them to achieve their personal ambitious (onsite or promotions) which lead juniors to work 12-15 hours a day. ZS is good organization but It is not good for lateral hires. Most of managers are with ZS with beginning of career and quickly get Managers position so they are immature and noncompatible for Manager role. They don't know industry and not able to think about think team or actual effect. They are very good at pleasing there boss and clients and boosting about work that team did for 12-15 hours daily. PS: You may not get positive feedback even if you work for 12-15 hours daily. Most funny part is ZS is a Great Place to work. Really surprising with this and got doubt about Great Place to work survey now....Read More
I was lateral hire and having 6 years experience at ZS at time of joining. Many people warn me to not join ZS but I was impressed with their boosting of HR Managers

Overall experience is okay and is a good place to learn collaboration and team work
The people especially HR business partners lack empathy for employees , expect minimal to no support from senior management and a lot of grind work at Associate and Associate consultant levels

Hardly anything to like about ZS. Probably the Cab facility is the only thing that seems on a better side
Work-life balance: typical day is between 10 am in the morning to 1 am in night, with still expectation to work even more. Salary: A lot of favouritism in terms of bonus and all, salary depends on promotion a lot and because promotion is all straight politics so salary gets impacted, overall for the kind of work done, salary is low. Promotion: Straight politics, if you manager wants, you can be promoted else no one cares for how good your review really is. A lot of politics here Job-security: No job security at all, whenever the team doesn't have much work in pipeline, they start reducing the headcount by putting people on a plan (PIP), have personally seen 3 cases in my team. Company culture: because of too much politics, it's extremely toxic...Read More

Snacks in the office
Everything is terrible. They support an AP who hits someone and who got reported to HR many times. The management is terrible and they got rid of more than half of my department and didn't tell us why - "blaming it on performance" but we really know it's because the company has no money. There is alot of office politics and the bosses don't give any support and don't respect their own employees. This is the worst company I've ever worked at and I came out 20 pounds heavier and with mental health issues to a point where I'm strapped with medicines to sleep. DO NOT work here....Read More

- Collaborative Environment - Competitive compensation and good appraisals (Minimum: double digit percentage for average performing employees as well) - Consulting flavour with client facing roles
- Poor Work life balance - Limited tech stack - Favoritism and politics at higher level (almost common for all corporates and not just limited to ZS)

Toxic work culture and bad work life balance. Incompetent Managers and Directors. No planning what's so ever. Always rushing to develop thing and then to discard. Service based mindset cannot make a product based company. PIPs and layoffs To reduce cost. Laterals are not welcomed. Pathetic tools and review process.

Only one thing, their cab service. People are selfish. There is no leadership qualifies in the PAM group. They just only do dikhawa. Yahan bas robot ban jao and kaam karo.
Everything! agar koi aa raha hai yahan toh don't think twice. Bhai sochna bhi mat aane ka.

Amazing place to begin as a fresher. One could start contributing towards projects and deliverables from the very first day. All the team members are supportive towards providing right guidance and mentorship. Based on own willingness one could unwaveringly expect a exponential growth

Flexibility in terms of working location, People so far have been good to work with
Working hours are too much- Can expect minimum of 11-12 hours on a regular basis, Pay and growth is not too much in the long run, promotions are all politics dependant and usually can expect in a minimum of 2.5 years

Business Analytics and Extensive Data Analytics part. Sometimes we do feel we're creating an Impact
Work-life balance is very poor. A normal day starts at 11 AM (Morning) and ends up at 1 AM (Night). Company's culture is bottoms up (Mostly driven according to the Teams) rather being driven from the Top and therefore lacs Transparency

The work-life balance is challenging, with long hours stretching from 10 AM to 1 AM on some days. Logging out at 9 PM is considered an "early logout." Deadlines are tight, with minimal time allocated to complete tasks, and there's an expectation to finish everything on the same day it is assigned. Although the work involves the latest technology, it often feels unfulfilling.

Force people out of the blue into PIP, no clear metrics provided , no feedback , just asked to leave. ' Treat people right' is the biggest irony . Politics entrenched in the DNA of the leadership here . Worst firm to be at , specially for lateral hires.

1. You would be working on challenging projects with focus on solving real business problems. 2. They generally use the latest tech stack.
1. Work Life balance is beyond terrible. While it is generally expected that WLB in consulting is not great, ZS has managed to set a new gold standard for how bad it can get. 2. People don't respect each other and egos run high. 3. Culture is extremely toxic, don't be surprised if some randon dude comes and shouts at you on your first day. 4. Laterals don't get proper training but managers place them in projects and says - "We have done our part, you need to manage the project from today on your own." Not recommended at all....Read More

You might find good people
They have people from Amity and lower grade college. One of the director is in Supply chain team and she had done her graduation in Hospital management. You will find people with no talent. Strict No, don’t join. If joining, always go for some pharma team there. Say No to any other specially ATC team.

High performance culture. Good facilities. Good pay.
ZS is Not for the faint hearted. It pays very well but is stressful and they make you work for it. For senior professionals, because they pay so high, you are likely to find it difficult to switch. But it's worth it.

Have good projects.
Treating people like an option 8nstead of treating them right, providing opportunities to grow. If you are not in the good list, and if you don't have any support. You won't be able to climb the career ladder. You will be just stuck and possibly start looking opportunities outside like most of the people who have already left or are leaving soon.
