Salary is paid consistently and it’s good for one who is looking for job security

Dislikes

We work for living but they expect you to live for working, hope everyone understand that. There is no work life balance at all and no good learning opportunities even if you are talented enough you will not be given with other work opportunities until and unless you complete your current project. No one understands our concerns be the HR or Manager.

Timely salary

Dislikes

They don't have any projects. Most of the resources are on bench Higher management has no clue on the upcoming projects. They will randomly assign you to a project irrespective of whether your tech stack matches or not In name of appraisal they will not give more than 5% increment even if you have performed great and have won stellar (LTTS Internal award) I believe it's worst of all the MNCs

No Wfh policy. Even they are not providing laptop itself, still giving desktop only. In this modern world technology, still providing desktop to work. Also working culture is average only. Even if your work can be done in Laptop, L&T is forcing employee to come to office.

...iven a mere Rs. 20,000 per month to cover accommodation, site travel, and meals. After 90 days, this allowance stops entirely, forcing site engineers to manage all expenses out of their salary. When concerns are raised, the BPHR and her IS threatens employees instead of addressing the issue. 2. Unethical Management Practices: If you happen to work under a bad manager (though a few are supportive), you can expect zero assistance. My IS and NS based in Mysuru, lack the courage to stand up for team members against the management. 3. Uneven Policies Across Departments: Other BUs provide adequate site allowances, but DMS's head refuses to seek approval for better allowances, leaving employees to bear unnecessary financial burdens. 4. Constant Policy Changes: The company lacks steady policies. Policies are revised multiple times within a year, often in favor of the employer. Cost-cutting measures are implemented without logic, and BPHR and even her IS and NS have no justifiable answers when questioned. Instead, they resort to threatening employees during Teams video calls to prevent call recordings. 5. Forcing Work Under Duress: Employees are forced to work onsite even if they are facing physical health issues. If they return to the office due to such conditions, they are terminated without empathy or consideration. 6. Unethical Transfers: Employees are hired for one location but are frequently transferred to another without any compensation adjustments. If employees refuse, they face termination. 7. Lack of Security and Growth Opportunities: The company offers no job security, no increments, inadequate projects aligned with employees’ skills, insufficient allowances, and negligible appraisals. 8. Grievance Escalations: Despite all these challenges, employees unable to meet onsite demands face grievance escalations by senior representatives, adding to their stress. 9. Post-Exit Issues: Even after leaving the company, BPHR and her manager ignore calls and even India HR Head also ignores emails regarding any clarifications or pending issues, leaving former employees in the lurch. Final Words: The culture at LTTS is toxic, unethical, and unprofessional. Employees are left to fend for themselves in every aspect, with no support, security, or fairness in the system. It is highly discouraging and not a place I would recommend to anyone seeking a positive and supportive work environment.
