Alfanar Testing & Commissioning Engineer salaries in Chennai (Updated 2025)

Likes

The company as open to innovation and readily adopts latest technology. I love the fact that I am a part of a team that market reliable, high quality products and has a global client base. As a result, I get to travel gulf, specially to the K.S.A. But on site travel is completely dependent on your project and clients location. Mine is a ksa based client and they have some offices in riyadh, hence I got a visa quickly. Another plus point is that my colleagues come from various cultural backgrounds, and we work happily in collaboration.

Dislikes

Compensation is decent, but growth is slow. The work pressure is very high. Sometimes, I have to work 10-14 hours straight in a day as I have to attend client calls in the evening and sometimes late into the after evening. I do receive appreciation emails from my client, but my manager mostly go unnoticed during my mid year appraisals. Also, there is no on-job training for freshers, hence senior folks like me have to guide them step-by-step, which is a pain sometimes.

...s in fact working better for the growth of an individual as a design engineer. bonus is a good amount though it is negligible compared to the main office (Riyad) counter parts.

Dislikes

Even after 15-16 years of working you would be sitting in the same chair and doing the same things. Growth in position is zero here. peanuts will be received as increments every year. Even though huge work is pulled out from Indian supporting branch, the credits, projection and the huge monitory benefits go only to the Saudi (Riyad) counter parts, All thanks to the middle management who is playing their cards intelligently to pull the maximum benefits only towards them even by extreme crooked office politics.
