The Company keeps its employees until they decide to leave.

  • Job security - Good

Dislikes

The Company needs to respect its long term employees and their skills. They are not very keen to retain their experienced associates who want a better Pay-out and roles. They would rather "save money" by employing less experienced people than retaining experienced members. The Company also needs to stop playing on Employee good nature and be more transparent in its scope & plans. Having a hidden agenda and manipulating the employees to achieve that goal does not help with Employee-Employer trust. The Company also needs to provide proper Manager responsibilities training and ethics training to Managers on how to treat employees and make them feel comfortable to ensure efficient working. This also helps prevent a lot of office Politics and Favoritism which is running amok in the Company currently.

Work life balance is awesome in here, until you'll reach Managerial positions. You'll get good salary as per your work, it's more Iike if you know such thing you'll do only those things. So on that basis you'll get good salary. Not much of a skill development through Project but if you're willing to upskill you have lot of learning materials as well as professional certifications too. Company regular organize fun events, it's just you need to take part in it else you'll be filled with work only.

Dislikes

Promotion are terrible and on top of that the percentage hike was awful as they can't even beat inflation. Start your career from here is good but staying here for long period of time you'll miss good learnings, you won't be able to upskill so much(until you wanted to externally). Learn good things from startups and if you're carving for stability join CTS after 12-15 YOE.
