-Hike are average -Employees who are not working good or are too bad both in personality as well as professionality are given way too much leniency which makes it very tough for other employees who are trying to do good for the project. -Office politics are fairly visible from the onshore US teams.

Very long working hours No work life balance Favouritism worst culture Micro management and office politics Micro aggression ,ED and vps abusing people on call No job security , if you raise any concern the managers would target you and sideline you. Even company doesnot bother to fix the issues rather want employee to suffer

It's one of the big brand in industries , so working here was one of my dream . But work culture is not good , there is lot of politics and favour based from which part of India you belong. For me in CIB for Margin module here was a VP from Gujrat and a ED from Orissa , so they will favour their people , it's visible from their action and favour. Also these guys are sitting there from last 15-20 year , so they just try to show that how much they are working for the company but in actual they are not putting any value to company. If you will come with any constructive feedback , they will penalize you , so that you can't raise your voice. They have multiple Production issue but they will not fix permanently , they will let it be P1 so that they can get the visibility.

Dislikes

...ssume you will work in weekend. Very difficult to adopt new tool and technology. If any one sits long hr , they will get bonus even though that person is not doing any value addition.

Good performance based bonus. Opportunity to learn/growth and exposure to latest technologies

Dislikes

Working for some projects/team can put you off, as timelines are drawn up without having optimum resources or due diligence and existing team members are put to extreme pressure to deliver on same. Performance appraisals/discussions do not acknowledge the efforts you had put it in and offer no motivation to stay in the team. Sometimes it becomes toxic/frustrating to work in such environment. It's astonishing that some higher up's have so much control on the numbers given at the end of the year for any given employee, that no one above them or even HR can question them. They can be totally skewed and irrational irrespective of employee's performance.
