Pros

-unlimited sick leaves -good campus -good facilities like wfh, leaves if your manager allows to avail which in 50 percent is not the case. -some onsite opportunities here n there for a span of 4 weeks

Cons

-your skills and brain will rot because you don't have anything coding whatsoever. -think twice before joining CT team because their product is in absolute maintenance mode. -heavy documentation! There are around 5-6 documents that needs to be modified or made even for a single line of code change. Mangers emphasise on these documents always without really caring about the quality of code. The developer will get frustrated endlessly. -some managers are very eccentric and it is near impossible to work with them. There is no 360 degree feedback and managers act impossible to please!all the complaints to the upper level go unheard. I unfortunately had to work for a particular manager for a short period and that span of my life was the worst ever! In that team a single days leave needed to be applied two months prior and management did nothing about such rules! -MONEY(the ultimate motivator) The BU that I work for gives single digit hikes no matter how good you are which is very very annoying. The variable pay is 10%of ur CTC and it's just 60-70% of that amount that U get as the BU isn't making profits

Thank you for your positive review, it is great to hear that you have been happy to work for us and enjoy the different benefits that are available for our hard working teams. We also hope by giving a lot of internal trainings to encourage motivated employees to move up in position within the company, so whilst being accessible to entry level employees, the ideal situation would be that loyal and hardworking employees are able to work their way up if the interest is there. It is nice to read that you would also recommend us as an employer, please feel free to share this feedback with your acquaintances.
