... balance, they only want their pockets to be filled, their expectations are. 1. Work like horse expect salary like donkey. 2. Work satisfaction is more important than pocket satisfaction. 3. Work work work keep working until you die, but don't ask for leave. If you want leave ask before 1 month. 4. Completely manual work. Don't even dream about WFH. 5. No job security if you slightly offend any senior even if though you are right, be ready to pack things and go home. 6. If you want to know your value, quit suddenly after 8 months of training, if they want you they will offer 4.5 lpa Or say goodbye to kennametal. 7. Be on time to office @ 8:30 am even if you are late, your salary will be gone to hr pocket. 8. Along with your work you should complete senior work as well, they will get all the appraisal and everything you get their workload. 9. Always be ready to take xerox that's the main thing you should learn. Always manager wants to take xerox of his work be ready to walk always. 10. Always show yourself busy, even if you don't have any work or else God help you. They will give you work which is unnecessary or else they will give someone else work. 11. God help you in year end, be ready to work until 12 am. 12. Keep dreaming about team outings and enjoyment. Yearly once they will give food and done.

salary hike, bonus, and growth (career ladder). CAE team manager does not have any FEA/CFD software and technical knowledge. Basically, he is from a sales background and speaks about only savings and AMC thing which is not useful.
