They hired me with a good salary, great hike from my previous salary. Interview process was challenging, multiple rounds, but I was given proper clarity and feedback each time - One of the main reasons I chose to join here despite holding multiple competing offers. Business & Financials wise company looks so stable and always growing.

Salary - Good

Dislikes

I was hired for a particular 'Vertical' - which was clumsy as hell, no proper process for anything - CI/CD, Security vulnerability scanning, Deployment process, Quality gates, Testers, Performance testing, etc., - Everything is available for namesake, but nothing implemented properly. Leadership wants to drive success by setting target numbers, Senior Managers plan for unrealistic goals, finally putting pressure on Senior & Junior Engineers. They expect a Senior Engineer to lead a project / module - thus managing a few people (3-6), attend a hell lot of meetings, work with incompetent Release Management team, Respond to production issues or incidents ASAP round the clock, and work for 10 points in a Sprint as per Agile. Agile is huge laugh - since priorities change left & right, Ad-Hoc changes are pulled right in the middle of sprints, and end of PI - you will be bashed in reviews if you do not complete the planned items for the PI. So obviously, Work life balance goes for a toss.
