Till June 2020 all in management were excellent engineers and good human beings. Though the salary was low, job satisfaction and relationship was excellent. The present management is captured by non engineers and they removed all good Senior engineers. Now the company is running mainly on outsourcing. But, owner of the organization, Mr. Dastur is next to God person who has been side tracked by present Management.

Dislikes

Attitude of present management. They Intentionally harash people close to earlier management.

The company is open to innovation and readily adopts to latest technology.Here scope of learning is exceptional with all the seniors around always ready to help at the time of need.Here work-life is also good.

Dislikes

...on below average considering the college's from which it recruits the engineers.The growth rate is also comparatively slowly with no overtime pay, bonus etc.The main problem is work is not distributed evenly throughout the whole department.

Different types of experiences gained, work culture is ok. For civil discipline the career growth is good. Bit life balance is less. Family life is less for some people who stays in remote areas. Good opportunity to learn. For capable people, independent sites will be given, independent charges, irrespective of qualification and discipline. Because of the confidence and encouragement from our management, I had completed two sites (250Cr and 582Cr sites) and only closing of one package pending out of six packages in 1.2mtpa Pellet Plant.

Dislikes

..., for some people who is having less exposure, got promoted which is paining us. Remote areas people are not being given preference for promotions and bit more pay is needed, comparatively to comfortable sites in cities like vizag. People who is honest and loyal to the company are not being treated adequately well. With lot of dedication I have completed two sites but not adequately benefited. Very less leaves.

... are a south Indian. And growth will not be on the basis of technical knowledge. Initial salary is good, but it never grows, but the facility provided by the company is far better.

Dislikes

We have to keep switching places as per project, and north Indians get posted in the south and south Indians in the north!
