Dislikes

I will never recommend Wipro to anyone as I had worst experience within 3 months of joining. They did not allocate the project as per my skills and expertise and they compelled me to accept the project work. I resigned in 3 months.

Dislikes

Huge 27% of variable pay in total ctc, did not receive quarterly payment for 1 quarter in last year due to company s overall performance. This quarterly variable pay is paid 2 months after quarter end. Annual appraisal and salary increment does not go hand in hand there is gap of 6 month between them. Annual hike is not in line with inflation rate for average rating. It is very less. There is no clear visibility in many HR policies.

This company doesn't care about long serving employees. Do not increase compensation for old employees, and when employees leave then they will bring new employees by paying double compensation. HR is not active at all.
