Survived for a while because of the good Director (good leader and knows the resources at the ground level as well who work for his BU), reporting manager and colleagues...

Career growth is not there. They don't provide good salary also. If they give u promotion, then also the increment u r supposed to get, they include most of it in variable so that if anyone leaves organisation, it will be their profit. No job security.

Average hike is 5%.do more innovation, then they will say , why these many resources are required. They fire experienced resources and every week schedule interview. Few accounts like Morgan Stanley is very good. They think about employees. Most of the account s are worst, no job security. Even they compel ladies to come at night shift for production support.
