It's a great company but it'll be unfortunate if one gets into a bad project team.

  • Company culture - Excellent

Dislikes

...cording to company policy fresher can't get release from a project on their own. Even after my bike accident and ligament tear I wasn't given WFH rather I was kept on leave without pay for more than a month. Even now after ligament repair surgery managers are forcing to take leaves without pay.

Working hours depend on the client location for some team members.(like UK shift i.e 12pm to 10pm IST) they place in a dummy project so that we can see how a project team works and how to handle clients. too much formality some clients do micro management. they dont give any goodies.
