Salary is good for freshers.

Dislikes

This company does not inform for exact role they are hiring candidates, students who got placed from campus were informed it was software engineer trainee, later on they brought us in customer service desk role. They do not treat all their employees equally, for example let me narrate you a incident, for Christmas celebration all other IT departments recieved goodies and sweets box, even the manager of service desk received goodies, but service desk employees or team members did not recieve anything, which according to me is a unfair, inequality and way to demotivate the employees. Salary amount differs from month to month, example you receive 33k this month,next month you will 36k, again next up coming month 32k, no proper calculation, don't know on what basis salary amount is deducted .

No hike, no job security, no skill development, no easy transportation.even if you learn new technologies they will ask for experience and make you work in technology which you already know.if you do "jing jack" you will get everything else you will be cornered and make you to think resigning is best than staying there

Good I like that there are good projects available. If you get that great you will get experience and knowledge.

Dislikes

1. Salary and hikes are low. 2. Poor employee welfare activities, once a year they take you out for team lunch. If you missed then nothing, no gifts, abs nothing, saving so much money but gives back nothing.
