Likes

...people are opportunistic. The management can't see people below them developing. The salary variation between the employees is wide. Many people in Grade 10 are idle and taking huge salaries. Promotion given to employees is kept like a secret, increment in yearly cycle is less than 6%.

Dislikes

Not much salary, No relocation, colleagues are selfish, directionless management

Likes

...om the parent centre team and a hot ongoing project, this is the place for you. The work life balance is pretty good and the compensation is generally on par with peers.

Dislikes

In terms of IT systems such as vdi , they would themselvess admit they are not yet mature for a large company. This is also the case with some of the processs and utilization of plm. Other than that if you happen to get stuck in a group with minimal support from the parent team it can turn out to be a bit if a torrid experience

Likes

Brand name of the company which attracts the candidates. It’s not great like other companies. (Never join accounts receivable department)

Dislikes

Micro management and no support from seniors management, the environment is like the company is owned by Team Lead or Manager and a lot politics which will ruin the candidate mental state. Terminating employees on spot for being late by 2-3 minutes even.

Likes

Nothing great to like

Dislikes

Poor leadership, no growth, no learning, no development, UK ruling, they treat indians like donkey to dump unwanted operational processes, totally non value added, you may see people working in the company for a long time, that's because a few have criminal cases and a few with fake certificate have joined the company and happily settled and a few stay for brand name. Do not fall for the brand name. Typical British Raja ruling. I don't recommend this company. Mentally they will ruin you. HR and Leaders are British sl*ves, they won't hear your concern.

Less working hours (40hrs), More paid leaves( 32days). Good working culture.

Dislikes

Very low end work in India Center in some teams. Poor strategy ( In 2015, They have opened a design Center in Bangalore and sold it in 2020). They have reduced around 20k employees between 2017 to 2020 across globe. Still this company uses age old practices, couldn’t not afford to use latest digital tools due to lack of money. During initial stages of COVID pandemic they don’t have money to procure laptops, and allow work from home to all employees. Poor BCP and employee safety measures.
