    ... ungenuine meetings. Company doesn’t care about your physical and mental health. Internal promotions is like you’re just changing the name of your current profile with minimal salary hike. Lots of politics. No one care for your efforts just results are matters. You will get zero support or response from you reporting manager and entire HR team when u need specially when it is some personal ask. Overall company destroying employees personal life to achieve their targets with ungenuine ask.

    1. Don't get fooled with TATA brand name it is mirage , T means Toxic workplace 2. Incentive is almost 0 as you will get target that u can't match & you can't discuss it as they start showing stores of mumbai and delhi 3. Toxic workplace 4. No Means NO job security at all , Come and destroy your career here 5. Cluster manager, regional managers and Zonal managers are produced through internal politics , They are Old in this rotten system , Logic missing , limited knowledge, inferiority complex and very much insecure with people coming outside 6. Company is in loss , do not join at all 7. No microsoft office provided , means No Excel , Word and Powerpoint , people are working on WPS office and you have to use WPS offc free software for data analysis 8. Cluster manager force you to work for 12 hours a day , if u say no then your target will increase and they will remove you after that through PIP & pressure 9. micro management - You will see a new level of micro management
