There was a time when I joined when I thought this was a great improvement over my previous company. The first thing that made me believe that was the work culture and attitude of everybody who worked here. There was unity. There was genuine enthusiasm to work and grow along with friends
But, from all the red covering this review, you can already start to guess that all of the things I just mentioned have dark undertones
The management seems to be nice at first. They ARE friendly, in fact. Perhaps TOO friendly. They'll chill out and hang around like any other employee. But understand, they do not do it to be humble
It is Impossible to talk about this company without talking about its fundamental ethics. Yes, like you've read in some other reviews, they really do treat lateral hires the same way you would treat the elaichi in biryani or the bone in your kabab
The management has a doublethink or a double standard. They make a lot of sexual innuendo jokes casually. It's supposed to be okay. I mean, it isn't glaringly obvious. But it makes one squirm with discomfort and cringe. But somehow, some lame joke offends them. The logic behind this yet to be determined
If you're a girl in this company, you'll have every creep talking about you. I'm sure the ones reading this will know who they are and they're numerous. It's just disgusting how this is taken to be the norm
A VERY important aspect of this company that you should really know about is that nepotism runs rampant. Favouritism too. Some of you might start feeling inferior very quickly. When I joined, this company had potential because it was smaller and had actual talent. But now, it's filled with references/relatives/friends of some in the higher-ups. They've hired them blindly, significantly bringing down the competency of the organisation
All the talents have left or are leaving. Obviously, talent and skills can't compete with blatant incompetence and nepotism.
Beware of this process called RT though before you join. It is one of the wildest things I've witnessed in any organisation. It has no rules. It has no shape or form. You get appraisals/promotions based purely on some people liking you or not liking you or even if they prefer your teammate to you. Many a people can attest to this barbaric ritual. The politics in this company can rival that of the nation
And oh yeah, it's true that they have had lay-offs. They hire in bulk. They'll fire enmasse. They will expect loyalty from you. There's nothing wrong in that. It's just that the same is not reciprocated
