By far the worst company to work for

Pros

Almost nothing, only good thing may be is brand name which is also going down the hill in recent times.

Cons

- Very unprofessional managers and leadership. No technical knowledge, full of politics. - Worst management, no value for dedicated and hard working people, only politics. Whoever does more politics gets promoted. - They don't listen to any feedback. Even after multiple negative feed backs and escalations, one of the manager got promoted to group leader. - They treat contractors like slaves, being an FTE, I felt bad for the way the contractors were treated. - 3 months notice period, they make sure that you will not be able to switch and your career is ruined. - On paper they mention unlimited sick leave, but if you take any sick leave, you have to work over time to cover up for this. - Worst company ever, multiple people resigned from our team and they behave like unprofessional.
