Dassault Systemes R&D Engineer salaries in Pune

Likes

I'd say I get to work on wayy more technical problems than any of my highly paid friends in Adobe/Atlassian/Microsoft and even Google. Our department has smart people with varying sets of personalities and you'll learn a lot about dealing with different kinds of people. I learnt the importance of good communication in such scenarios. Company doesn't care about your engineering background - most of the company is mechanical/EC/civil engineers writing software and only few of us CS guys, but instead selects people based on problem-solving approach and 'engineering mindset'. I agree with this approach.

Dislikes

Money really is bad. I love *most* of my work but it makes me feel with such pay making a career at this company (or thinking of setting up roots in Pune - buying house/getting married etc) is not at all sustainable. It can be a good job for people who already live/have family in Pune with lesser financial obligations but not so much for non-natives. No matter how smart you are or the ideas you propose - they're squashed down by local management before even going to french counterparts. You'll be explicitly told to generate and share ideas - but when you do, they'll be discarded with poor reasons. It's quite frustrating sometimes. This might depend upon the team, but in my case the french counterparts are not much useful either. They are opaque in communication and not open to receving new proposals. Generally they assign projects to us and that's it - followed by weekly status update meetings.

Initially it was good. Age old technology used, rigid management,pay disparity. Pay scale and hike vary based on your college. No growth opportunity. They should seriously think about employees

Dislikes

Pay scale age old technology rigid management politics You will never get good hike or a good position if you are not from a tier1 college. Try to avoid joining this organization if you want growth and skills

Work-life balance and the company culture made me to stay in the organization for long term.

Dislikes

Salary benefits are discriminating within organizations as well, which has resulted in iteration. Someone who has recently joined the organization will get higher monetary benefits than someone who has stayed longer.

Policies are good enough. Person can maintain a good work life balance.

Dislikes

Salary hike is average per year. No chance of promotion even if you delicately worked for the project. Project lead/manager matters a lot.

It is very good organization for who want to completely settle down and planning to retire from same organization. But if you are newbie or wants to explore advanced technologies then you could choose better organization than this.

Dislikes

Compensation is very bad... Means fresher with 2 years of experience will get more Compensation than existing 5 year Experience employee which leads to resignation of existing people.
