I started as a trainee at Wockhardt before completing my master's degree. I learned lot of new techniques, I was encouraged and challenged to ask questions, learn and develop skills required for a researcher. There were always valuable discussions in the morning that helped to develop thinking process towards answering research questions. It was a great workplace to start my career because it moulded me into a researcher. My team was excellent, I always got chance to work on separate things while working in the group, which is very important in terms of developing team working skills! I would like to go back and be a part of such a great company and very welcoming, encouraging work culture!

Absolutely nothing. Worst company ever

Dislikes

This company is a big time sadist and narcissistic. It drains an employee mentally and harasses them saying we will stop your salary. They gives you a said position but make you work like a labourer. I’m placed as senior product manager in the company but I was asked to do things apart from the job role.

Just had to share this, I got a 100% hike!

I'm keeping this anonymous because I don’t want to disclose it in real life. After two years without a raise, I successfully negotiated a 100% increase at my current company. I focused on creating significant value and worked in cross-functional teams to learn as much as possible. There were times when I was overworked, but it was all worthwhile. I was confident that it was a mutually beneficial situation. My advice would be to choose your job wisely, create value in the right place, and don't be afraid to negotiate.
