Pros

- Managers are polite - Good teammates and supportive teams. - Manageable work load - Promotions are on time - Internal job switch is possible and easy.

Cons

- Salary should be revised. Especially for existing employees. It makes a feel of unsatisfaction. - Employer part of PF goes from the employee's salary. - No food and own canteen. Sodexo is not sufficient. This matters for a bachelor.

DEFINITELY NOT A GREAT PLACE TO WORK, UNLESS YOU HAVE NO JOB

Pros

Just ‘Okay’ to work if you are in a service based company or do not have a job currently!

Cons

• Poor pay as per other major IT software companies • HR team is not very pro-active across south Asia region. No good events etc are organised, no FESTIVALS are ever celebrated. • Non inclusive culture, example: a Bengali team lead will mostly hire all Bengalis in her/his team • Benefits are not as per industry standards • Promotions are a highly political game here. • IMP: Company pushes you to work more with NOT giving a promotion and keeps you working harder in bait of promotions, not a sign of a good culture • Other co-Founder has left the company recently • Company exploits people by hiring even NIT and IIT Masters Post Grad as “Tech Interns” for long 1-2 year durations on cheaper costs and then don’t convert to a full time offer!!!
