Dislikes

No job security when u have done with project. When organisation no needs the employee, will be moving an employee with no compensation where company policy no matters. Company earns on person when he is project, no matters with the tenure he/she worked in the organisation & provided billing and ask to move out without any compensation.

Work Culture. Environment. Opportunities to learn new technologies. Supportive Leadership. If you are a great performer, you will not be let down with double digit increments. Ease of Doing Work. Great Team Environment.

Dislikes

Minimum to Negligible variable Pay. Growth driven profit sharing is also at minimum. Promotion is relatively slower as change in band happens only after 3-4 Years once you are 7A or B bands. Chances of onsite in current scenarios are extremely negligible and are only possible if you have stayed with the company for more than 5-7 years. Although it's still Opportunity based. You need to be at the right place, at the right time under the right Manager. Everything happens via your PeM or People Manager with regards to your career. So be good to your PeM and your PM. It will be great if you can have PeM and PM same, but it can backfire if you dont gel with him/her and then your performance appraisal can go for a toss.

Very good scope for learning and getting into corporate culture for beginners. Healthy team culture.

Dislikes

Terrible Salary Hikes. Market corrections rarely happen. Salary not justified with current economy inflation. New joinees do start with good starting salary, but the experienced are not valued when it comes to Hikes and progressions
