Work life balance is good. That is there is no work. Even a college dropout with basic english skills can do the job. They just want the under price workforce that India offers.

Dislikes

...it is very bad, the politics is on the next level. Attrition rate is super high. And the company doesnt care because they can hire a fresher for a18k salary. A Male manager there, just dont get me started on him. Devil reincarnate. You will no who when you you join. There a 2 male managers, one is excellent the other is just useless. Please dont join this company in the bangalore office.

Culture and work-life balance is amazing. The benefits are great too, but room for improvement. They also offer free learning platforms like linkedin learning so you can always upskill. Internal job movements are also encouraged.

Company culture - Excellent

Dislikes

The management sometimes takes major decisions like shift changes or change the R&R without any headsup. The promotions are super slow so if you are looking for growth, this isn't the right place.Might be forced to come to work for 'fun activities' and 'team bonding'

Job security - Poor

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.
