This institution was setup with a wonderful idea of promoting FOSS. It has a got a very young work force.

Dislikes

...eveloping a solid structure where team can be built it's not going to sustain. Never pay good salary, has got all the issues associated with a typical goverment organization as well. Bottom line, please consider joining the company, it's at best is an extention to your college, with teachers who doesn't really know about how the actual software industry heads the department. HR is complete disaster, you never really get a proper HR policy here. Government of Kerala, and head of IT department and it's secretary should really spend time on this to correct it's direction.

The company is an udertaking of Govt. of Kerala. The works are research oriented, so that we can learn new things.

Dislikes

...cally biased and based on personal favours. The recruitments are contract based. The salary and appraisal offered is very less compared to other IT firms. The most of the works are outdated ideas. The work environment can be simply described as a toxic one.The senior people who are supposed to do technical support was also hopless. They were just complaining/ criticizing the work by junior people. And most important factor is mistreating lady staff. There is no proper complaint committee, ad there were incidents like ignoring the employee complaints by the higher authorities.
