...e given WFH option which was never expected. It is good company for beginners. Salary hike is good compared to remaining MNC's. If you got good TeamLead who understands current work then you are lucky.. else you will face terrible work.

Dislikes

Terrible work, If someone experienced left company then they will pressurize rest to finish that work rather than hiring new ones into project. No learning scope. If you learnt something by your own and after proving that you can do that work without any flaws, still you wont get any opportunity to work on the tools which you have learnt. Full pressurized work.

Likes

If you get tagged to correct project,you can learn and get exposure to different technologies.

Dislikes

Career growth is a bit slow....Even when a candidate deserves to be promoted,the process is too slow and hikes and other compensation is also low... Simply the new joiners are given all the perks but the experienced never grow or given any hike
