As a member of the Zydus Life Sciences team, I am thrilled to share my positive experience with the company. Despite the considerable workload, I have found the environment to be incredibly supportive and conducive to growth. One of the standout features of Zydus Life Sciences is the strong culture of dependency on colleagues. This culture fosters collaboration, teamwork, and a sense of unity among employees. Rather than feeling overwhelmed by the workload, I have consistently found colleagues willing to lend a helping hand, share knowledge, and work together to achieve our goals. Additionally, the company's commitment to employee development is commendable. From regular training sessions to opportunities for advancement, Zydus Life Sciences invests in its employees' growth and professional development, ensuring that we are equipped with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in our roles. Overall, my experience at Zydus Life Sciences has been incredibly positive. Despite the challenges that come with a demanding workload, the supportive culture and emphasis on collaboration make it an exceptional place to work. I am proud to be part of such a dynamic and forward-thinking organization....Read More
While Zydus Life Sciences has many strengths, there are several areas where improvement is needed to enhance the overall employee experience. Transportation Quality: The maintenance of company buses leaves much to be desired, with frequent breakdowns and subpar conditions. Furthermore, the continued use of non-AC, overcrowded buses poses discomfort and safety concerns for employees, especially during peak hours. Insurance Policy: The current insurance policy lacks comprehensive coverage and fails to adequately address the needs of employees and their families. Enhancements in coverage and accessibility to healthcare services are necessary to ensure the well-being of all staff members. Salary Discrimination: The practice of salary discrimination based on the college or institute attended is unfair and demotivating for employees. Compensation should be based on skills, experience, and job performance rather than educational background. Three-Year Bond Policy: The imposition of a three-year bond policy restricts employee mobility and career growth opportunities. Such stringent policies can hinder talent acquisition and retention efforts. Food Quality: The quality of food provided to employees is below standard and does not meet basic hygiene and nutritional requirements. Improvements in food quality and variety are essential to promote employee health and well-being. Reward and Recognition: There is a lack of a robust reward and recognition system to acknowledge employee contributions and achievements. Implementing a formal program to recognize and reward outstanding performance can boost morale and motivation. Dependency on Old Machinery: Relying on outdated machinery negatively impacts employee efficiency and safety. Investing in modern equipment and technology is essential to enhance productivity and employee satisfaction. While Zydus Life Sciences undoubtedly has its strengths, there are areas where improvements could greatly enhance the employee experience. One such area pertains to the current five-day working week policy, which, while introduced as an alternative, lacks adequate justification for its implementation. The five-day working week, although presented as an alternative, does not sufficiently consider the needs and preferences of employees. Moreover, the lack of flexible timings further compounds the issue. The restriction to only one permissible hour for early departure, contingent upon the use of personal transportation, poses a significant inconvenience to employees who may have varying schedules or transportation arrangements. This rigidity in scheduling not only limits employees' ability to manage their work-life balance effectively but also fails to acknowledge the diverse needs and responsibilities outside of the workplace. Without the option for flexible timings, employees may find themselves constrained by rigid schedules that do not align with their individual circumstances. To foster a more supportive and accommodating work environment, Zydus Life Sciences should reconsider its approach to scheduling and flexibility. This could involve revisiting the rationale behind the five-day working week policy and exploring more inclusive options for flexible timings that accommodate the diverse needs of employees. By prioritizing flexibility and adaptability, Zydus Life Sciences can better support its workforce and cultivate a more positive and productive work environment. In conclusion, addressing these areas of concern will not only improve the employee experience at Zydus Life Sciences but also contribute to the company's long-term success and sustainability....Read More

It gives work life balance and job security. at certain level employees can bring their own innovation to complete projects. Company as a whole is always there for any employees to support them.
Seniors are rigid and don't want to try new things at certain times. work flexibility is less.

Nothing to like. If you're reading this review, kindly read the actual scenario in the company in the dislikes colum.
To the person who's reading this review - Read review completely and think twice before joining. When I got job here, all my well wishers said not to join & still I joined for which I regret my decision now. Now I should hit my face with my chappal for joining here. Recently my ex colleague got a job offer here, he came to know situation here, he preferred to stay jobless for 1 month but he didn't join here and later he searched one more job. He's happy there now. 1) Bond - Employee should have option to leave any organisation if they don't like the policies and work culture. Since there's 3 year bond here, you can't go. Employee should have free will to make job choice. 2) Timings - You'll have to extend your work upto 7 PM sometimes even more, manager will force you stay daily almost. They'll strictly say if you don't want to stay, you can leave the company on your face. ZB has the bad name among all other zydus business units. Too much work stress. Because of this you can't spend time with your family. Many people are resigning even before completing bond and few ppl absconding as well and still HR and management has no reaction on this. 3) Leave policy & C.offs - They'll not give leaves in general. If they give, they'll tell that you're not working well you're senior you shouldn't do like this etc etc. Sandwich policy is there in which you can't take more leaves. You don't even have option to take c.offs against the OTs you did. If you ask for c.off they'll see it as a sin. 4) Micromanagement - Your manager will count your lunch break hours too. All useless discussions & seniors always ready to grab credits of others. In my team, few people writes mail for hour to hour activity done by them at the end of the day. 5) Salary - Salary is preferably low when you compare your work done in the company. It's always less even if your bargain more during interview time. 6) Policies - 6 days full strict working days & timings. Earlier they used to have alternate saturdays off. Due to business needs, these guys kept all Saturdays as working. When all companies are thinking forword, and giving 5 working days, these guys moved backwards. Overall company review is bad. At the end, if you consider self as intelligent one, don't join here. You'll regret your choice later....Read More

Zydus is a big company which has good work culture in Non Bu vertical only. Owner has good gesture but he is not getting true picture what is happening at shop floor.
No Transparent Appraisal A person who worships boss rather than his work, he always good appraisal TAC is not transparent To save budget of HR in BU only, persons are not given promotion. TAC is used in such cases.
