Pros

none, none, none and none

Cons

a company design for Indians this is the sad story this company is for Indians who would fight to be onsite for people like me who do not care to be onsite is just a pain no raises actually I got a raised of .05 pesos and they even put it in paper and told me congratulations what a scam their certifications are internal so if you get out from there nobody cares also these certifications are so difficult that only by memorizing the information you might pass this company is for really old people like 60 years old who want to retire and never get fired also your salary is equal to years of experience, it does not matter if your experience is 3 years as manager, you are going to the lowest level possible in their organization because of this just to finish the managers are difficult to described they just follow orders without even thinking what they are been told to do most of them do not have any training or experience some do not even speak good English, and the Indians ones are the worst they think you are like their people modern world slaves and they always try to treat you like you are worthless when is the other way to be honest.

Pros

I'm working in a nice project, where I have the chance to get know and to work with nice people. If you don't have experience is a good place where to start your career, but then go somewhere else.

Cons

No benefits at all compared to other companies here in Brno; The indian low cost mentality is tangible; Center like the one in Brno/Lodz they exist only because they need people with european languages, they don't care about your skills. If they could, they would provide all services from India, it's cheaper for them. All big and interesting opportunities (travels, relocation in other continents, change projects) are given mainly to Indians;

Pros

• Work-There are internal projects available for internship. Employees who are in bench can search for an internship in a portal called “Pathfinder” and apply for it. You can also ask for role change after 2 years of your service to the company. Though it doesn’t give you any leverage on career growth but you can minimize the certifications by doing this. • Food courts- Food courts and food is amazing in Bangalore Ecity campus. You can get north Indian to south Indian many varieties in reasonable rates.

Cons

• Pay-Actual salary is 25 to 30% less than mentioned in offer letter. Variable component is not paid in full. Company always have justification to prove that they cannot pay. • Pay- Weird part is that the dearness allowance which is supposed to be varying with inflation is fixed in Company. • Pay hike- Pay hike was there in the month of Oct-2013, which is given after 4years. • Work- It completely depends on the kind of profile you get. In some projects employees work for 17hrs and in some projects employees doesn’t have work. There are employees who have been on bench with no work for more than 2 years and their career has gone for ruins. • Role change- Promotions are given in timeline basis though Company claims that it is based on promotions. Most important part is that you have to clear 3 to 4 internal certifications to get your promotion even though your performance is very good. For clearing the certifications you have to go through dumps and learnit all and clear the exam. Please note that certification can be irrelevant from your work. • Work timing-Employees have to maintain timing of 9 hour and 15 minutes yearly otherwise leave deduction or loss of pay is imposed • Facilities- Company deducts Rs.200/- from your salary each month for maintaining the facilities they provide • Leave- only earned leave can be availed, no other leave like sick leave. Yearly 20 EL and 5 can be availed each quarter • Location- Most of the delivery centers are far away from city, in India. So be ready to travel or stay in a boring secluded place • Dress Code- Tie is mandatory on Monday and Tuesday. A fine of Rs.200/- is deducted from each day employees forgets to wear tie. Very strict checking in all gates is done and employees are humiliated if they are not wearing tie. • Morale- Overall employee’s morale is down which is obvious when pay hike is given after 4 years. • Performance management- There is a system called performagic which is just for the name sake and all the decisions are person dependent, which may be true for other companies as well. There are hell lot of parameter which may not be valid, based on which your performance is judged by your manager. Final call is from your manager and you can’t get anything more even you appeal for it. • Recreation- Any number of team party or outing can be done but the funding for all these are blocked and if employee can pay from his pocket he can do it. • Parking- Parking is paid for employees. For two wheeler Rs.300/- per month. • Travel- There is bus facility available for daily travelers. Cost of which is divided according to the distance travelled. Short Distance – Rs.1200/-, Middle Distance- Rs.1500/- and Long distance-Rs.2000/-.
