Pros

✓ Some real jewels in terms of analytical ability and competence remain in the company's books, a lot can be learned from them which is a big plus ✓ Quality of analytical work + front end nature of the job is a positive

Cons

- It used to a wonderful organisation with a lot of exuberance and charm under the previous management. The current management is absolutely abominable with no skin in the game. The top management is only fooling the board + Moody's (parent) and carving out crores and is expected to covertly run away in a couple of years post topping up their heafty bank balances. - The IT systems are archaic and the management is not open to any advesre feedback. Recently a sub standard internal MIS has been launched with the management turning a blind eye towards repeated resistance by the core user group as the new software is not at all user friendly. - Despite people working from remote locations since the last 18 months or so, the toxicity in the company has increased significantly and has actually become unbearable resulting in very high attrition. Moreover, most of the people leaving are better performers which is expected to result in deteriorated and lower quality output in the near to medium term. A lot of the deadwood which should have been cleared long ago, remains in the company which is a demotivator for analytical fraternity at large. - A very weak performance and rewards culture which has fostered growth of undeserving people. With the high attrition, the wheels of the company can come off any moment. - Unequal distribution of work across teams. This has actually resulted in only a few teams/individuals executing bulk of the assignments and so far there has been no adverse action against the free riders - High focus on compliance aspect has taken away a lot of sheen from this job - Excessively overpaid corporate personnel in the company who hardly fulfil their office responsibilities; This has in turn acted as a demotivator for most of the workforce. In fact the company even financially rewarded a handful of people as a thank you bonus for taking the previous MD down which speaks volumes about the intent of top management and board.

Pros

Work profile is good else nothing is attractive

Cons

Third class mngmt.. no understanding of analyst performnce.. it is judged purely on ur b school and who u r reporting to...u hv to work atleast till 8 pm else pple look at u as if ur taking halfday...lot of salary decrimination..5- 10 yrs exp analyst gets paid same as fresher and some analysts gets 5-10 times higher though the work profile is same.. ur apprisal is nt related to ur performance but whom u r reporting to.. however hard u work nd perform well ur appraisal will b nominal unless u r favourite to ur reporting manager... Even if u r rated high it will b moderated at higher level without any reason... Well appraisal ratings are not explained to the analyst.. u hv to accept wht u r given.. no questions asked nd u wont get answer even if u ask... U hv to forget abt ur family if u r wrkng for icra.. no work life balance.. it is only work.. many times u hv to work on sat and sund which is nt appreciated at all... There are TLs who treat u as if u r their servants and they r owners of the company..keeps on nagging nd sit on ur head all the time. Lot more things to say.. but issues are never ending in icra...

Pros

Only learning ..where in you will be forced to learn...good peers

Cons

Bad HR, sometime you got to work on Saturday's and Sunday's ....no recognition.....didn't explain as to how they arrived at my increment percentage.....some of the quality analysts/team leads put undue pressure on analysts.....some people do not even deserve to be team leads...they do not even have business ethics...shout at their subordinates in front of other team members....outdated infrastructure.....did not even provide ID card for 3 years....if you resign, your superiors try to put undue pressure on you to complete cases or else they would not relieve you (this really sucks)......analysts at low levels are seen as case churning machines......
