They promote free loader work culture. Skill development on name only. Company culture: Toxic Salary: Even ola driver and Panipuri seller earns more with comfort. Promotions: What are that?.

...ment is near impossible. Promotion will be heard rarely. Lots of hidden charges. And the most important, you will never get salary given in offer letter, it will be short by around atleast 2 LPA or more than that only.

Work life balance is good but again its depends on the project.

  • Job security - Excellent

Dislikes

1. There are no other benefits apart from salary 2. 5 days WFO failing which they deduct in the quarterly performance pay. 3. Salary Hike is for name sake you will end up getting 30 to 35k per year for highest band. 4. No technical growth. Here most of the projects are like support kind of thing so there is no technical growth. 5. Apart from job security there are no other benefits
