Dislikes

Less pay scale. Once yor are hired after that you need to forgot about the salary rise. They keep on saying you are already above market standards but once you put down the paper they will be ready to match your salary. Hypocrisy level !! No job security. You will be hired for a project....you will be fired once project is completed. Managers harrass the employee to work day and night with no work life balance. Worst company culture with no employee engagement activities or appreciations. Adamant senior management with no interest to address the employee grievances.

I don't see any good reason to like this company. This is a typical corporate which makes money off Indians and our unemployment rate.

Dislikes

Stressful work environment, 10-hour workday, You will be forced to come to office even if you can do the job at home, Unable to avail leaves easily even though we deserve them, you will be burdened with work if they realize that you know what you are doing, No salary increments or appraisals for the extra work you are forced to do here. The salary is not worth comparing to the work we do there.
