Dislikes

I was given a lower salary grade considering my experience which i came to know only after joining. People joining now have lesser experience than me is getting much more salary. I was from a tier-2 company so was degraded in terms of salary as well as position. Work profile not as promised in interview. Very immature work which makes downgraded. Lost all my past experience as they are not utilised. Management not ready to mitigate this issue even after I conveyed my distress.

Likes

Good work environment and culture. Teammates are supportive and the management is transparent.

Dislikes

Salary is decent but career growth is slow. There is a bond of 2 years before which you cannot resign. On the job training is not given to new joinees.

Likes

That's the best company I could have worked for. The work-life balance is perfect, while the compensation is more than industry average. Also, being such a mature firm and an industry leader means that one gets to learn the best practices of the industry, which help tremendously for the development of a professional.

Dislikes

Except the location (Chennai), which isn't preferred by all, everything's perfect.

Dislikes

Might not be motivated to work as hard since there's a lack of growth after a point of time. Initial learning is great but tapers off
