Likes

Company is only good at making false promises, they will promise you lot of perks to keep you working like donkeys and then nothing materialises

Dislikes

They are starting work from office but not compensating for the same, variable pay and other bonuses are delayed by almost a year. They sit on cash pile but don't want to pay their employees on time. HR in this company is useless, does not address any issues.

Likes

Excellent work-life balance and flexible working hours. Opportunities for growth and continuous learnings are endless here. Collaborative work culture where your contributions are valued. Overall great place to learn and grow.

Dislikes

The promotions though do happen on time the payouts of the arrears and bonus takes a lot of time.

Nothing I liked as far as I remember! I lived in anxiety , trepidations and job insecurity

Dislikes

The HR politics and the unfair treatment and practises! One example - they promised on the email about the salary hike despite of that they failed to keep it up

Salary comes on time and the office is satisfactory.

Dislikes

Shift is 8 hours but employees are expected to work 12 hours daily. Unrealistic timelines are given that are not possible to meet. No extra time is given to complete their mandatory trainings. Client is very demanding and have unrealistic expectations.
