Notice Period is too long. Job match with skill is not balanced. Increment and promotion strategy is unclear, but this is what we get in a service-based company.

Work environment is good.
Dislikes
Most of the projects are support. There is no Work/Life Balance, team members will be calling you anytime even when you are on leave. Most of the national holidays you will end up working. If you are a fresher and eager to grow your skills then please skip this company.

Nothing. Just stress.
Dislikes
Work is good. Environment is good. But some people working there have politics escepcially the old people working there. To secure their job they torture newbies making them to quit themself. I people well all come to work and leave not to dip nose into others personal. Simply tortures someone sitting idle and minding their business. Also the transport team there is a shit.

Ample opportunity to learn and grow
Interaction with Juniors is possible at all levels
Preferences heeded sometimes
Dislikes
Opaque appraisals and promotions
Bad Hikes (Criminally ridiculous in 2024)
Preferences by hierarchy (language or caste (belt chains prevalent) or something)
NO value for long tenure in the company
Every CEO seems to come in and mess things up more than the previous one
Executive management is clueless on ground level reality
No Employee care or benefits much
TAG team is the worst, cant fulfill External hire requests, cant place internal bench associates
HR is toothless, don't even react appropriately for a s*xual harassments complaint (colleague's)...Read More

End of the day it's a service base company without proper work life balance and not much advisable to stay long in the service based companies like this.

Despite of project managers, the organization takes strict action against any misconduct which can be totally appreciated.
Dislikes
Being a female, our manager kept ignoring our complaints about s**ual harassment at work place and started victim blaming just because the culprit is a critical resource.
Later upon escalating the matter some action was taken.
