1. Poor compensation and even worst appraisals for everyone joining new to the project. You will be horrified to see (if you stay for almost 2-3 years) , you will get almost negligible increment in your in-hand salary. 2. Politics is in veins of whosoever is sitting at your top management level. 3. My Project Management was poor , not sure about others. Unrealistic deliverables, dead-end deadlines , long weekend working and what not .
