This review is for Backbase India LLP. Earlier when I joined Backbase in 2022 it was good and during 2023 the leadership informed us that there won't be any budget cuts on roles but during 2023 they stopped budgets for few roles which impacted many employees and their career. They don't have long term vision on the product and career of their employees. People who want a job for 1 or 2 years can join. This Global Capability Center many not sustainable in a long run I believe

Work-life balance - Good
