The company is Good. Good Compensation,Lots of technologies to work. You'll get good work depends on the project.

MAIN concern is the people around you. For me, it's NOT the best(not the worst either). Team is not that helpful or I don't feel comfortable with these people. I had a technical discussion with one of the managers,for an internal project management cement, Sorry to say, it was the worst experience, he wants to know about my PAST(14 years back stories) ,and started behaving absolutely arrogant( sorry to say that, but there is no other way to describe). People are very busy, and I don't feel comfortable here. Expectations are huge. Honestly, I won't recommend to anyone, unless they're ready to work in such environment. My manager told me,there is no allowance for weekend support, not sure if it's true. AGAIN, IT TOTALLY DEPENDS ON THE PROJECT YOU'RE IN. I am a new joinee, so can't say much pros or cons.

Salary hike is very poor, where in a new employee gets a decent hike of 30+% and the employee working from years won't even get 10% properly, it would be really good if employee gets a decent yearly hike like around minimum 20%

1. I joined Allstate with huge hopes in a senior role with 10+ years experience and the Ireland based ABI management lay off my entire team within a year. At this stage of our careers we were not offered any support from the HR team as there is no bench policy here. We were only offered 15 days of severance pay and were made to sign a MoU that we will not post anything on social media about this incident. I know once incident cannot determine the overall company brand value but please note this has happened inside this company and not an isolated incident that the company shouldn't held responsible for. We all struggled for 4 months to make ourselves positioned to an suitable job in an already low demand job market. We cannot explain our struggle in words, Monthly EMIs, job ghosting by other companies, other company HR taking advantage of our situations. My only request to this company is go for contract hiring only don't play with senior candidates careers. I felt like writing to Labor commission about this incident with a copy of MoU which was illegal but due to poor governance in India I thought of redirecting this energy towards something meaningful. 2. There are no onsite opportunity which is why company attracts you with little extra pay with no job security. You would be fired any day. 3. Heavy politics. I have seen position were forcefully created overnight to save a senior management employee from getting fired while the new joiners were terminated with just 15 days of severance pay.

Horrible place to work. They may advertise as great place to work. However, you will only biasness to the core of every promotion/band progression. They will not be ashamed to promote people by cheating in the important certifications for the promotions. Also, the management is so horrible that they will only and only promote one specific religion-based people who can't speak two correct sentences of English. You will be shocked to see the diversity in management as they only promote what we call as "Chaploose" to the height that senior managers are reclessly moved out of the Team if not fitting into their personal ego fulfillment. This is the worst decision of my work carrier and make sure if you are not the one who can carry tiffin bags , laptop bags, give door service and out of working hours service to your supervisor then this is not the place for you.
