The company has a great culture, people are treated with respect. Employees are given time to perform if they are struggling. The office has a very flexible time schedule and work hours. As long as the work gets done no one will interfere with when you login or log out. Promotions are dependent on business growth. However, the promotion hikes are barely 20%.

The company offers very limited pay with 4-6% hike on every appraisal. It's a great company to be at when you are already satisfied with your pay and want to keep pace with inflation. Not when you are looking to grow.
