Dislikes

Management is not good, focus on food instead of compensation. Management failed on its own commitments. Incorporated bad HR policies like bonds for many things like offshore travels, trainings and retention bonus. Travel policy is horrible. Truck department has budget issues for retaining good employees. No timely promotions.

You have better job security compared to local industries.Free transport and average appraisals.

Dislikes

There are no equal pay policy at same level position.You can find huge variations between the same grade pay. The work load also vary from person to person,some are overburdened and some are at leisure. The shift timings are very long,company makes you work for 48 hrs in 5 days.Most of the things are confidential,and people are very reluctant to sharing up knowledge. Career growth depends on how well you can bond up with HOD. The HR Dept is just for show up & everything is directed to HOD. Appraisals are average around 10% inspite of company growing at rate of approx 35%. Politics is high & people believe in passing the buck.
