Nothing much, it's average service type company with decent salary. But leaves are good. 30 leaves per year in a service company is really commendable.

Dislikes

1. They hire based on prospective projects, and often the projects don't land. And then they have very limited time on bench, hence job security is an issue. 2. Work from office schedule is very strict, there should be some flexibility. 3. No proper employee benefits such as outings or lunches or parties, all they care about is billing. 4. Little too much of micro-management

...rk using Teams, it would be more efficient to allow employees to work from home. With such less salary and hikes it is impossible for one to work here.

Manager hierarchy. Ratings will be given by home manager. He will never know about my performance because he will be working for some other project. Still they give ratings based on some comments without knowing actual performance
