That Virtusa does not have projects so people are in bench so they are just sitting gossiping and taking salary. People come at 11.00 in morning and go at 6 at evening. During that time people just roaming around for coffe luch and games.

Worst company ever. A fresher's nightmare.

Dislikes

...licy. They have needlessly made training tougher , not provided internships etc. They have forced students into retraining again and again with no pay at all. The worst part is they don't even communicate. HR s are not responsive and just send automated emails. Don't ever opt for this company. Period!
