Dear Candidate - You haven't indicated how many years of work experience you have had or how many companies you have worked for. If you were into Reports QC with us, it is clear that you were either a fresher or perhaps with very minimal prior work experience. We pick freshers for the Reports QC role, so this itself explains that you lack experience and when you have worked only in one company in your life then perhaps you have little or nothing to compare us to. Regarding payment schedules, please refer to your offer letter. Am sure you didn't read the payment schedule on your offer letter. If you had an issue with the payment schedule you shouldn't have joined us in the first place. When you join a company either as an intern or a full times employee leaves are not allowed unless there is a family or medical emergency. For interns we extend leave on the date of the exam and extend leaves for family or medical emergency. However, there are interns who take excessive offs and that can be a problem in any company. If you are full time, you have a probationary period of 6 months and no leaves are allowed during probationary period unless there is a family or medical emergency. The thumb rule is : If you are not "Full Time" you are not entitled to leaves. Now only if you had enough work experience and had worked in enough companies you would have understood that. So, your review is completely baseless because it has been written by an amateur who clearly had bad attitude at work. Yes, if you are late then you have to cover up the time because if you are in a Production role then every minute counts. Realistically, we don't expect you to cover 5 minutes. But, if you are occasionally late and late for over 15 minutes every single day as was the case with you then for sure you have to cover up for the lost time. On the rest of the matters we wont comment as it is a clear case of someone venting out their frustration on an online platform.

This review has been written by an intern who either absconded or was terminated for cause. Majority of the candidates who intern with us leave on a very positive note and have a great work experience with us. Some interns join and expect that as a part of the Work Culture they can sit at their workstations with ear phones plugged in and work while listening to music, keep phones at their workstation to check WhatsApp and do what it pleases. Being a company that handles customer and candidate sensitive data we do not allow phones at workstation, don't permit earphones at work and some interns see this as freedom taken away from them and hence link this with work culture. Interns are required to read their offer letters to understand the stipend payment date. Majority of the interns do not read the stipend payout date and then start complaining only to be directed back and told to reach the offer letter. Interns are not allowed leaves except in cases of family emergency or exams. Often some interns choose to have an emergency every single week and hence leaves are denied. If someone on the team has one emergency per week it is a serious problem to have. Interns are not permitted or eligible for leaves and hence all leaves are to be covered. The same is mentioned clearly on the Offer Letter under Schedule 1. All companies that are in the services domain where productivity and delivery to the client on time is of paramount importance will require interns to cover up for loss of productive hours. If an intern is late one of days we do not insist for a cover up but if someone is a chronic or a habitual late comer then we have to ask them to cover up for loss of productive time. It is important to notice the irony here - That the intern who has written this review has a problem with late payment of stipend (as claimed by him/her) but at the same time thinks that it is perfectly fine to come to the office 15 minutes late regularly and the company shouldn't ask them to cover up. We got to play it even. When you as an intern are late to office then suddenly you expect that it is OKAY to do this but if the company is late (if at all) in release of stipend then suddenly it is NOT OKAY. We got to even it out somewhere.

Our response to this review is as under: 1) Our Client Relations Team hasn't worked on Sundays for over 3 years now. This review is false and misguiding. Our Clients are off on Sundays and majorly work Monday - Saturday and hence our workday and work times are aligned with our Clients. There is no need for anyone from our Client Relations Team to work a Sunday. If there is ever a need to work over and beyond the call of duty for anyone then we encourage remote working and offer Work From Home where ever it is possible. 2) Our Directors are extremely down to earth and their behaviour towards all colleagues is impeccable. Anyone who has worked with our company will vouch for the fact that our Directors are very friendly, work oriented, helpful and will go over and beyond to assist all colleagues. At the same time, they need the job to be done and expect the job to be done. 3) Our Operations Head has been Working From Home since February 2022 and currently on maternity leave. She is due to return shortly. The individual who has written this review is simply disgruntled and this review is totally bogus and sham. Our Operations Head has had no direct interaction with the team for almost a year now. 4) Salary Delays - Please review and study your employment agreement to understand the payroll date. Sometimes people do not study the employment offer and don't see the payroll date and come to a conclusion that salaries are delayed. Yes, at times due to unavoidable circumstances salaries run late and this happens in many companies. The world is in a recession and 'Possibility Of Avoiding Recession Really Narrow, 2023 Will Be Worse Than 2022,' Says IMF's Gita Gopinath. So we need to live in real times and it appears that the individual who wrote this review is living in Gala Land. 5) Likes: Nothing: Our recommendation is that you should switch a job if not already. If you like nothing about our company then perhaps we have made a mistake hiring you and you've made a larger mistake by being with us. Although we are of the opinion that this review hasn't been written by any of our colleagues.
