Work Pressure is high on people in India. Needless to say the amount of hours you need to work on any given day are usually above 12 hours mostly extending till late night India time. Weekends are also some times busy and not really compensated in the right way later. Overall, work-life balance is at high stake. Digital Transformation is in full swing within the organization at the moment but clearly not every team is equally important and many of them are clearly trying to adopt to the new process and technologies without any direction. Updates at mid level management are not usually frequent and transparent. Compensation and benefits are as per market standards and Recognition in form.of rewards for Hard work is usually done and keeps the motivation for employees to work along aggressively. Overall, I see this as a place to work for few years , grow personally while delivering what the company needs and ask you with utmost quality and then move on unless you are in a position where the ciurve of learning and growing is constantly going up.

No Hike, No promotion after working like anything.. Always have to heard about a sentence, “you have to be a smart worker”… Not sure what is the definition of smart work according to the Management.
