Siemens Senior Test Engineer salaries in Chennai (Updated 2025)

Likes

... in other organizations. I must say, the situation at Siemens is very favorable. They compensate extra for on-call shifts, and if your shift falls in the evening, you receive additional pay. Moreover, there are no night shifts; instead, engineers in other time zones cover the night hours, which is a significant benefit. Additionally, the pay is better compared to my previous company. Other likes are- flexible timings, annual gifts, opportunities for skills development, and proper KT. In my previous organization, KT was lacking, and I was often put on on-call duty without adequate knowledge of the product.

Dislikes

Sometimes manager expects a lot . You do your role job ,apart from that they expect you to write articles on the product(just after 4 months of joining), give KT to juniors ,unnecessary meetings and trainings which are annoying.

Working on new technology, it's fixed salary and giving subsidized food.

Dislikes

Not telling the truth about exact amount of work and doing estimation for name sake. Later work will get spill over and then you will start filling pressure of it.

Likes

Work life balance is good, good food, good quality AC bus transportation with push back seats, internet reimbursement, one time WFH setup of 20,000, less pressure

Dislikes

...en no growth for him, same designation even after 5 years of continuous service. whatever you do, a fixed salary increment of 1 lakh per year is fixed salary hike for any employee, you can calculate the hike percentage as per your current package.
