Pros

A very small number of old people who didn't manage to move off from this toxic environment yet. Current Buildit is nothing more than an ugly parody of what it was and used to represent.

Cons

It's all Cons: 1. Leadership: There is no leadership whatsoever. There are some people who call themselves "Leaders", but are only focused on saving their own back. The current leadership of Buildit have destroyed an amazing engineering team by their narcissistic and idiotic "vision" of Buildit2.0, which roughly translates into "fire people to show profitability". Their toxic attitude made Buildit a top down and suffocating organisation. 2. Attitude: An overall "holier than thou" attitude towards employees from the "mothership" Wipro is brewed by so called "Leadership" team of Buildit. Which lead to behaviour which is appalling to say the least. 3. Hypocrisy: The "leadership" pushed for their own promotions in Wipro while telling others that the promotion in Wipro doesn't matter. Buildit leadership team uses Wipro as a scapegoat for everything that goes wrong, without taking any responsibility and accountability for their own actions. At the same time they turn into nauseating sycophants when they talk to Wipro Leadership. If you choose to join Buildit even after reading this and other reviews in this forum, then surely you value money (whatever puny amount they offer) more than your self-respect. In the interview, ask how many people left or were fired in last one year and you'll get a feeling what actually this organisation is.

Pros

There was an excellent vibe about the place early on but this slowly diminished and then abruptly vanished once new management came in and talented people ran for the door. I did get to work on several great, impactful projects but then just became heavily involved in pitches and other non-billable work which the Wipro mothership has 0 interest in. All the pros are now in the past though, there is nothing left and this "company" which was fake all along and exists in name only. Entire teams have been laid off or absorbed into the mothership.

Cons

This was basically a 5-year experiment that that failed. Wipro has unrealistic expectations around utilisation - which is the only key metric they care about. They don't care about the effort/struggle you've been through to win business - which is tough when you're amongst some of the most expensive resources they have (being an Indian company, where the quantity of cheap labour over quality is king). If you are less than 80% billable every quarter then basically you are fair game to be laid off at any moment. They might hire you for an immediate need they have but as soon as that project ends your job security is gone. Buildit is just a carrot to lure talented people in to fix a specific problem (because you'd have to have a screw loose to want to work for Wipro!) This is highly likely to be working on a product that Wipro has messed up OR will later mess up after it gets offshored. They may offer a good salary but your career is guaranteed to suffer in the long run.

Pros

If you want to learn new technologies and you are in India, you will get lot of opportunities.

Cons

- Worst company to work with. - You cannot grow until you have solid backing in senior management - If you want stagnation in your salary and role, join Wipro. - Not employee friendly company at all
