Decent salary and work life balance(Depends on the team though) Company values Company culture(decreasing now a days and in the download slope)

Dislikes

I wrote this section and then AmbitionBox says it's inappropriate. Fish eaters dominate the company and they bring in their BS politics to the organization like Lilly. Nepotism at its peak. Technically sound will not survive and will get frustrated. Lot of decision making process. Micromanagement at its peak but M level say it's not micromgmt. Nothing else to say. You go through the reviews and take a decision about joining. Good luck!!

The salary and benefits are good. It is also a con since once you are in that salary range there are no other companies outside lilly willing to give you the expected salary.

Salary - Good

Dislikes

They promote culture so much but in reality the upper management do not follow what they preach. There is retaliation if you raise concerns. They do not take action on survey feedback. Promotion goes to only people who talk aimlessly and not to the people who actually put in the work. The upper management will take the credit for your work. Recognition is some teams is almost nil. The company was good until 2020 but after that it was a downward spiral for employees.

Just had to share this, I got a 100% hike!

I'm keeping this anonymous because I don’t want to disclose it in real life. After two years without a raise, I successfully negotiated a 100% increase at my current company. I focused on creating significant value and worked in cross-functional teams to learn as much as possible. There were times when I was overworked, but it was all worthwhile. I was confident that it was a mutually beneficial situation. My advice would be to choose your job wisely, create value in the right place, and don't be afraid to negotiate.
