Good pay, get to work on new technology and designs

  • Salary - Excellent

Dislikes

Work life balance not that good, culture is not good, india management works like dictators taking decision involving employees but without consulting them. Also US people get permanent wfh while India people have to come mandatorily to office (I cleared with HR that they did not have any government mandate to call employees to office), very low hikes as the firm is loss making for 4-5 years now.

There is absolutely no job security, the moment company thinks your role in a specific project is over you are fired. They will hire another person for different project but won't even try to put you in another project.
