...e officer or CEO - CVK they will get good package leaving the developers inVain. The reason that they get good salary is because of developers they will not consider the developers. I don't why these people get such a huge salary. There is always a better person in the market than CVK or Chief people office. We need to replace with those people for the company to flourish and developers to flourish. Chief people office has stopped the Catalyst fund, when said this how they are going to giving good hike. Friends don't beleive white collars.

... get any leaves in next 4 months like these leaves are just not meant for us. 5. The bonus component of CTC would never be given to you 100% . They will give you 60-70% and if you ask what was wrong in my performance they wouldn’t give you any answers. 6. They think giving wfh would let them utilise the employees for the whole day. They literally kept the standup calls at 8:45am and our official shift starts at 9:30am
