      Do not join: No work life balance

      Associate solutions engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good pay, Company policies (Don't fall for it I have regretted joing WU every single morning I woke )

      Cons

      1) Dirty Politics: This made work environment hostile for me. Leads have created their own individual groups and Jr Associates and Associates are treated like slaves. It's been specifically mentioned by your lead that do not take help from other group people or else you have to face consequences. WU is loosing good people and also it's Image in the market because of bad people especially Group Leads. 2) No work life balance: Too much work load and lot of pressure from management to complete the work assigned. No prior planning or estimation is made before assigning any task/work. I had to stretch my hours almost every day. 3)Most of the seniors responsible for implemention lack Technology knowledge and skill sets. is outdated as most of the applications are legacy stack no intention for improvement. 4) Micromanagement: Lack of freedom and no employee empowerment. 5) Their is a huge difference between the Job description mentioned during hiring and actually work.
