ZS Principal Associate Reviews

Nothing

Dislikes

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.

Dislikes

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

Dislikes

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.

Likes

High performance culture. Good facilities. Good pay.

Dislikes

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.

The salary and perks are good at ZS.

The work life balance isn't good and seniors do not treat you well. There is uneven distribution of work. Even after giving your best you will be criticised. No appreciation for your work.

Have good projects.

Dislikes

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.

Likes

Nothing.

Dislikes

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.
