There is nothing ideally to like or appreciate at Zydus. It has done it's rebranding but it lacks the leadership and professional culture how at MNC it should be . Just by doing rebranding , it cannot ape or imitiate itself similar to other MNC's . Since majority stake are of founders , it is typically lala kind of company. It has the age old mentality of maximum work and peanut kinda salary. Morever , it is nowhere with regards work profile , pay , leadership and positive work culture when you compare it with its other peer companies like Cipla , Lupin , Dr Reddy , Biocon, Glenmark , Mankind , etc . Toxic HR work culture , HR can't even speak proper English , they speak in gujarati , high attrition rates and biased working ways are prominent , they believe in buttering the people at top to get brownie points and neglect the juniors and make them feel irrelevant . Very stingy and poor paymasters. Founders have money to spend heavily for their personal luxury car buying , splurging on the crap foundation day function , for celebrating Chairman & MD's birthday functions , but not to the employees who give blood and sweat and work very hard for the company . The only thing HR is concerned is about bring talent at as low cost as possible One of the worst thing is they don't do proper handover to the incoming person when a person leaves the organization , burdens them with mountain of work and squeezes the talent completely. Also , Zydus is very much in news for non adhering to USFDA guidelines and getting strict warnings from them , they have breached quality control numerous times , have produced substandard quality of drugs....Read More
1. Bias culture . Too much buttering to people at top and the founders . 2. Lack of leadership. 3. HR lacks the ability to speak fluent English . 4. HR just believes in bringing talent at junior level at a very low cost. Mainly they reserve big chunk of cost for hiring and retaining top talent , thus showcasing biased culture . 5. No professionalism. 6. High attrition rates . 7. No comparison to other big & professional MNC's . 8. Lack of work balance , no bank holidays also. 9. No proper handover to incoming person by the outgoing person. 10. Everything every day is urgent , too much of workload , believe in squeezing the energy and efforts to the fullest , however pay is very less. 11. Don't give designation hike . 12. HR policies are made in such a way that it suits and caters to CMD , top leadership and higher authorities . 13. Lack of cleanliness and tidiness at workplace , one can see old files , boxes being dumped at workspace for years together attracting insects and rats . 14. Lack of proper work structure . 15. Top leadership believes in only getting popularity 16. No freedom to openly speak and give constructive feedback. Management , HR and leadership believes in muzzling voice and don't readily accept criticism or dissent ....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.

Too many hierarchy levels. Promotions will take as per joining dates, no matter if you perform throughout the year. The person joining before will get promoted first.
