Dislikes

- Compensation not at par with industry - For most of the roles, the starting designation for freshers is Associate, you will be promoted to Engineer-1 and then Engineer-2, however in most of the other companies, they start with Engineer-1 itself. - Quality of work is very much dependent on the team you are in.

Pay is ok. Travel opportunities.

Dislikes

Do not join as a lateral. Too much politics. Terrible work culture. There is no appreciation for hard work. Promotions are based on face value. People who don't do any work but are great at office politics are promoted.

Likes

Freedom to learn for freshers/less experienced guys, Good compensation, work-life balance (if you can manage only). Little flexible working hours if you are an individual contributor.

Dislikes

In short it’s a “Old age home”, oldies never learn & work and so let you not also. Buddy-business rocks here. Learning & career growth will be almost zero for 7+yrs experienced guys.
