Company have good policies and it is one of the know and well reputed but Manager rule like is their own kingdom, no professionalism always treat employees according to their personal choices and grudges. they will not think twice before demolishing any employees career. company is lucrative but again it's no use if your higher level person is not good.

Dislikes

If you have completed your Notice period then ideally you should receive your pending salary as well as Relieving letter within 45 days but over here your FnF process will get start after completing your 45 days that means overall you have to wait more then 2 months for the same.
