Salary - Good

Dislikes

Leaders are totally useless & inefficient when it comes to HR & admin Department. Shakir Iqbal, Pemanand, Karthi Palanikumar are pathetic employees and have no work ethics. Vikas Aggarwal - Director from the contingent Workforce management team is one the most incompetent leader I have seen. He regularly abuses his team & gives no growth. Should be fired immediately on compliance ground.

Everything here is average in terms of work culture, work life balance, salary and benefits, promotions, learning and development and work satisfaction. It depends on the manager under which you are working and the team you are a part of. (Auditing domain perspective)
