Pros

This company offers a good salary and being a product-based organization, employees don’t need to go through interviews for every project change, which is a plus.

Cons

The work culture here is disappointing. Many managers were promoted directly from fresher roles without developing the necessary skills, which results in poor leadership and frequent lobbying. New joiners face unnecessary challenges because proper knowledge transfer (KT) is not provided—often it is done only as a formality. Instead of fostering growth and collaboration, the environment creates obstacles and discourages learning.

Pros

Fair salary hike in annual appraisal, Timely appraisal cycle

Cons

I worked here for 2 years.The biggest issues: 1. *Work-life balance:* Doesn’t exist. Expected to be online late nights, Sundays, holidays. Taking leave is frowned upon. 2. *Management attitude:* Employees are treated like slaves, not professionals. Micromanagement 3. *HR Support:* HR only protects the company. Complaints go unheard. No exit interviews, no grievance redressal. 4. *Job security:* Hire & fire policy. People are let go overnight without reason or proper notice. Would not recommend to anyone who wants growth, stability, or mental peace.
