This is a backend support job. You design ppts, scrub documents and populate excel files. And by research, they mean cooy pasting from google and paraphrasing them. After completing your hard-earned MBA, this is what you're expected to do. Join this company only if you don't have a choice, as they have 2 year bond period as well.

It's a consultancy so if you have project then you are safe and you will get money apart from salary. They force to employees to get less per DA money. And flight cost insurance cost. Etc. They don't care if you are outside the country without travel insurance

Manager ask to use cheap unsecured flight. Asked why you required travel insurance when you are outside the country.

Dislikes

No collaborative work between multiple consulting services offered. Lack of proper management and work life balance. The managers are not well trained and not from consulting background which makes it difficult for them to allocate work effectively and get the projects closed on time. Poor culture and no work ethics. Lack of proper infrastructure in terms of attending meetings, being a client-facing company. No work from home allowed, senior managers/ leaders get triggered if asked for wfh due to any reasons.
