Likes

-Job security is good. -Partners are very supportive. -Great place to expand your knowledge. -Most of the management is great to deal with but the same cannot be said for the executive level partners (LK Family).

Dislikes

...ction -No work-life balance -The appraisal process takes quite a long time, e.g., your appraisal might be announced in April but your salary won't be increased till July or even October. - There is a strict Sir/Mam culture here. - They won't allow you to eat non-veg in their offices (at least in Safdarjung and Jangpura offices, I have seen that), this is very weird. -IPR employees don't get an annual bonus, only attorneys (also, executives but it's very poor) get it which is very discriminitive. -I feel Executive staff (paralegals, operations, etc.) are treated poorly and discriminated against by the management. I genuinely feel bad listening to how some partners talk about them openly. -During the appraisal process, I have noticed the pay raise for my female counterparts was slightly inferior (Although, this is based on my very limited knowledge and of 2 female coworkers for different teams) - It's my personal observation that female executive staff is hired on mass whereas the gender ratio in the Attorney/IPR staff is slightly low. However, the overall gender ratio of the organization is good. -I have heard about favoritism by the Partners/Directors from coworkers but never faced it myself.

Almost everything I dislike in this firm like work, timings and senior behaviour especially Harish Upadhyay he is a dictator in this firm and owner malathi Lakshmi kumaran is completely illeterate.

Likes

The quality of clients and work in taxation, and finding a great group of peers.

Dislikes

The pay is not good, and there is a need for better managers in the firm. There's no feedback mechanism. The work life balance is only slightly better than Tier 1 firms (don't fall for the propaganda), and the pay doesn't compare at all. If you stay too long, you'll get stuck in the very niche area of work of indirect taxation.
