Worst company. lack of culture at Pune centre. this company is a joke in the name of product co, the promotion and salary hike decided by HR manager in India. full of politics. product work mostly taken care by onshore guys. not much scope to learn. I wasted one and half years with this company, most of the good people I knew, already quit.

Internal politics are hard. No Job security even for the on roll employees. Candidates shouldn't join this company through third party. Otherwise you'll be definitely kicked off within 6 months without any reason despite of giving your 100% efforts.
