Pros

nothing to say. we had same experience with same policy

Cons

everyone is in competition with each other instead of working as a team and a one soul company. Don't be surprise, if you got contract termination, just in the last week of your 6 month probation without any notice!!!! It happened to me and another employee in another branch. they won't give you honest review in 3-month probation review and even during your probation. They won't give you any chance and constructive review and just suddenly terminate your contract! I haven't seen such a worst review process in other companies. I think HR team and management team needs to look into this issue very precisely and come with something to work for business and think about their resource management.

Pros

Working directly with great and qualified people.

Cons

All employees are not treated the same when in regard to benefits or pay. Middle managers/supervisors get paid very well while a lot of them push their workload down to others and then take credit for it. HR tells you what your position requirements are, which they are very adamant about, so they can keep your salary/offer on the low side. Once you are performing the work, those same managers/supervisors will require you to perform/provide services that HR "specifically" stated are not part of your job/contract/position. You really have no recourse except to leave, because these specific managers/supervisors above you are protected by their managers. Managers are very slow to respond to individual inquiries/issues. They will basically ignore you, with the hope that you will just stop bothering them. If you state your intentions to go to a higher authority they will promptly contact you. They only respond with a phone call or in a one-on-one setting. They are very reluctant to put anything in writing out of fear.
