Joining salary is really good, but forget about increament. You have to struggle for getting 6-7% increament. Shifts are there, but those are even for Analytical R&D. Partiality based on departments. Most of employee benifits like gifts, annual gathering and cultural activities are closed now by the name of COVID.
