Pros

Met some good Indian friends. Experienced their culture. Made me more open. But its people, not Wipro.

Cons

Wipro is single worst employer in Switzerland and for Swiss/European, provides absolutely zero work security/structure/career. You basically work in a labor camp where policies are set by people so detached to what is actually going on, its almost unbelievable it still has any customers. Dont get me wrong, I met some fantastic people, but this company is atrocious. Examples: Money is sometimes not paid in time. Guess what. Noone cares. Which brings me to.. HR departament for DA/CH/DE is one Indian guy sitting in Frankfurt with zero idea about the actual labor law. So if you dont get paid, its your problem really, not Wipro. Try to resolve this and maybe after 2 months of emails from pillar to post you will get something.. Indian employees are used to ridiculous policies that only work if they are good for company, never for employee. So they learnt to cope. For Europeans it is such a culture shock that anyone must have a right attitude to get anything with that company. Worst of all. Remember. You will only ever be a resource. Not human. Resource. That for any reason unrelated to your work can be culled. And they will sooner or later. Thats your career. If you are happy with sliding by and getting just by, you will be fine. But trust this review, if you hope for any career or development. Zero. Nothing. Nada. I am extremely happy I got out in time. Be careful prospective employee and do not make any long term plans on the basis of job security. It doesnt exist. You have been warned.

Pros

There are no pros to working for Wipro.

Cons

This company is a sh** show. There are too many managers and less and less people to do the actual work. They have people that negotiate contracts and then expect the company to make money. In reality, most of the time the contract is basically giving the house away. It is the employees that suffer. When the contracts go south, they cut more people. Those people are then screwed over. Be warned!! If your position ends on the 25th of the month, your health insurance also ends on the 25th of the month. Note that the premium you paid, is not pro-rated, justifying the end of coverage on the 25th. You still pay the usual premium, which should then have your coverage run through the end of the month. If they can destroy a person, they will. They want more and more and more from their employees. While they preach all this mental health, work life balance, it's a sham. They have no regard for the well being of the employee, which carries over to the employee's family.
