SYSTRA Architect salaries in India (Updated 2025)

Job Security is good and people are friendly for the most part. Projects are great. The office environment is friendly and your colleagues and seniors will support you and back you up if you make a mistake. DISLIKES (due to word limit): There are individual design teams with own respective leaders but all of them have to listen to one person at the end. Their individual views don’t matter. This is a company where you feel like upon your resignation they are happy to get rid of you and won’t welcome you back. No one bothers to give you a proper send off. The senior management even taunts you that your contributions did not matter. They treat their staff like labour and curse them if they leave. You do not feel welcomed to join again in the future (in all the bad elements of the company, this is what actually hurts the most.) Nevertheless, in 2021-2022 a lot of people are resigning. If the company wants to stay long in the market, they should revise their policies, compensate deserving employees and treat employees like assets not work dogs on a leash that you can whip and make them work for long hours and only give them a tiny bit of bread. If you are a dedicated employee and like to work in your field you’ll see that only people like you who have the skills are given the work and the rest who are useless have all the free time to have tea breaks, play games on phone, and sit in the cafeteria for half of the day. I have rated the job security as 5 star but the company should fire people who are of no use. Update (Review changed to 1 star): The Hiring management is so utterly shameless that they’ll offer you a lower package than what you are currently on if they deem it to be too high as per their standards.

Dislikes

...m and nepotism in the workplace. Yours skills and abilities do not matter. However if some higher management knows you directly, expect great salary hikes and promotions. The worst and funny part is, they don’t even try to hide it. Your college degree matters. Top colleges are given priorities and good salary packages even if the employees of that college don’t know anything in the field or have zero software experience. The ones who do, they don’t even bother. This favouritism is felt since the beginning of your career. The HR that takes your interview is disgusting and is uncultured. He’ll decide how much amount of respect he wants to give you during the interview only. During my interview he chewed Paan Masala throughout the interaction. All my superiors were however good which kept me focused for about 4 years in this company but I couldn’t handle it at the end.

On time salary.

Dislikes

Not providing competitive salary. They bid less get all the majority projects and pay less. Also I came across few experts who are incompetent but are working due to low pay. Low pay = Low Quality. It is good for old employees after retirement. Young talent should avoid working here

nice management during pandemic

Dislikes

Compensation is very low almost to nothing. Also, scope of learning new concepts pertaining to career is very narrow. I hope in future work related to Structural discipline is new and interesting so that at least our knowledge increases with time.
