Dislikes

1.poor career growth - no industry standard learning 2. Poor financial growth: hikes happen like rain in desert, once in a while. That too of poor percentage ( at times even single digit ). You can’t beat inflation with salary increment 3. Low standard work: the nature of work is that you mostly deal with outdated tech stack, tools and processes. No real learning from day to day work. Even the smallest piece of task would need complicated processes and approvals making it unnecessarily boring with no useful takeaway
