... couple of year. The leaders are like managers, there is no lead by example. 2. There has been no salary hikes for 2 years and marginal hike in the recent cyle. 3. There is emphasis on learning and development, but organization does not want to make any investment in that regard. 4. There is a concept of feedback, but only top down. The company is not in line with Industry standard of 360 degree feedback

Team leads are good most of the time Tech stack is cutting edge but still can't learn shit due to delivery pressure

Dislikes

Salary is pretty low balled, mostly talks rather than work. Weekend work has been continuously creeping over since 1 yr. Almost every project has stupid CLT who have overpromised things and devs pay price of it.
