...n” culture. Promotions or career progressions are no more fair and meritocratic. Salary increments have been paused and corrections, if any, are also very biased and dubious. While the processes remain similar like earlier, there is no one overlooking or ensuring these are followed. HR has become weak and they lack backbone. There is no more empathy or support system for employees. The spirit of the company has been erased completely.

You will receive salary on time. Perks and benefits are there, if only your manager let's you avail them 😕

  • Salary - Excellent

Dislikes

If your manager don't like you, you can be trapped. Pseudo HR policy. No one will hear you, though they have a campaign running named as "we listen" 😝. They say you will get a chance to get relocated, but when you apply for that they will not support.
