McAfee is a great brand and has some amazing products. They are generous in giving compensation and other benefits. However, eventually all boils down to two things 1. Which project/team you are working on and 2. whom are you reporting to. If these two things are good then rest are just bells and whistles. I hope you agree with me. There are some really high quality engineers who have vast experience and they are very helpful. One needs to have really good etiquette and email writing skills as well because you will have to interact a lot with people from other cultures and geographies. However, overall experience has been great and it is highly recommendable.

Dislikes

Tech stack is complex and deadlines are stiff.

It used to be a good company with great benefits

Dislikes

Mcafee has undergone a lot of changes in management in recent time. No more job security, compensation or hike. You have to work to exceed management’s expectations but they won’t give even decent hike, only single digits.

The company provides ample opportunities for growth, being in cyber-security you get exposed to latest technologies and you have to be on toes to catch up fast paced changes in technology and also to keep from getting fired. Work culture is flexible.

Dislikes

Nothing much to dislike, compensation/ hike is low.

Retention offer

Hello, Current offer from CG - Total 21.5L, fixed as 19.4 and rest bonus Retention offer from Deloitte - Total 19.1, fixed as 15.5 and rest bonus (4L) I understand the offer is less but my manager explained that Deloitte's hikes are better in the market and on an average, I can get 15% every year with good performance. The same hikes in CG are around 5-6% so financially, my salary growth will definitely be more in Deloitte. Please give me suggestions. I have good management and projects in Deloitte with WLB but I would like to have some perspective on offered CTC too
