...s . Since majority stake are of founders , it is typically lala kind of company. It has the age old mentality of maximum work and peanut kinda salary. Morever , it is nowhere with regards work profile , pay , leadership and positive work culture when you compare it with its other peer companies like Cipla , Lupin , Dr Reddy , Biocon, Glenmark , Mankind , etc . Toxic HR work culture , HR can't even speak proper English , they speak in gujarati , high attrition rates and biased working ways are prominent , they believe in buttering the people at top to get brownie points and neglect the juniors and make them feel irrelevant . Very stingy and poor paymasters. Founders have money to spend heavily for their personal luxury car buying , splurging on the crap foundation day function , for celebrating Chairman & MD's birthday functions , but not to the employees who give blood and sweat and work very hard for the company . The only thing HR is concerned is about bring talent at as low cost as possible One of the worst thing is they don't do proper handover to the incoming person when a person leaves the organization , burdens them with mountain of work and squeezes the talent completely. Also , Zydus is very much in news for non adhering to USFDA guidelines and getting strict warnings from them , they have breached quality control numerous times , have produced substandard quality of drugs.

No professionalism. 6. High attrition rates . 7. No comparison to other big & professional MNC's . 8. Lack of work balance , no bank holidays also. 9. No proper handover to incoming person by the outgoing person. 10. Everything every day is urgent , too much of workload , believe in squeezing the energy and efforts to the fullest , however pay is very less. 11. Don't give designation hike . 12. HR policies are made in such a way that it suits and caters to CMD , top leadership and higher authorities . 13. Lack of cleanliness and tidiness at workplace , one can see old files , boxes being dumped at workspace for years together attracting insects and rats . 14. Lack of proper work structure . 15. Top leadership believes in only getting popularity 16. No freedom to openly speak and give constructive feedback.

Very bad work-life balance especially at below manager positions. Appraisals are mostly dependent on your personal relations with manager rather than your performance.

... to leave they threaten u that nowhere u wl be able to work after leaving zydus. They approve leaves and then at the time of salary they unapprove it. So most of assigned leaves wl be LWP. Faculties join seeing the good name of zydus but after joining feels to leave , but somehow need to wait just to complete 6 months or 1 year for the resume experience count. They make every leave without pay going off the rules and when u show offer letter rules, they show u the last statement “ decision of management “ which is without any reason always tries to gv u no paid leave.
