Everyone from the HO is very cooperative.

Company selected the employees without judging their in detail. Many of the junior as well as senior employees are very poor in technical/construction knowledge though they are getting high salary only on the basis of experience.

Working time is only benefit here. Come anytime go anytime. No strict decipline. Job is secured here, until u want to leave the company no one can lay you off. So most of people are leaving the company within 6-12months of joining.

Dislikes

Starting from work culture to salary everything is worst. They are still working as per old tradition and using AutoCAD 2D. No value engineering is done here. Most of the things are done by using thumb rules and over-design. They have not given APLI or appraisal from last 2 years. They fool employees by giving false promises of appraisals. They don't use standard ISO practice for documentation, just doing work like a layman. They offer more salary to new employees than existing employees. Salaries of draftsman are higher than engineers. Salaries of GET is more than salary of employees working from last many years. Otherwise the GET or newly joined employees don't stay here, due to above mentioned issues. They don't do any employee welfare or refreshments activities in the office.

Dislikes

Terrible company to work for. Promoters don't care about employees life. Employees have been threatened to come to work since June 2020 else face 50% salary cuts. 6 days working and no benefits. No funding in entire group and all are dieing businesses. Please don't join unless in dire need of a job.
