Projects are good as they have quite good clients working with top notch cloud & tech infrastructure leveraging multiple programming languages, frameworks and sophisticated tools. There is good enough learning opportunities if one is an entry to mid level resource, but that stagnates once you are in the project for a long duration. If you ask for Growth they will assign you more of similar sort of work without feeling the need to take care of your finances.

Dislikes

... hours Prodution support shifts way too often to disrupt your work life balance. Last year with the top rating, I was given a meager 3K hike on my monthly salary i.e. less than 0.5%. During yearly promotion cycle, they forget all the work and client appreciations and keep talking about normalization. Their office infrastructure is also getting very poor. When I joined in Gurgaon couple of years back, they had a twin tower office complex, recently they shifted to taking just 3 floors in a co-working space building which lacks the basic amenities an IT firm should have. Their head office in Noida is good but down in the outskirts.

Senior management culture is very poor. They are busy with their promotions and own business. If required they will push all blame to junior to play safe side game. You will get good words but not increment. Never you will get opportunity. Just for eyewash they will give you unproductive trainings but you will never get any opportunity. Lot… lot… lot..of things dislike

...led career manager, not your manager) who has not interacted with you even once. - Variable pay: company will find x y z reasons to deny or pay only a minute part of the variable pay, no matter how hard team has worked, or how much on-time deliveries were achieved. - : after your project ends due to bad management, instead of allocating you to a new project or aligning you with existing opportunities, HR will call you and ask you to resign on your own initiative.
