Company culture all over is average, whereas the HR pokes her nose in every department except hers and due to this the culture gets toxic. Because of the HR, people are disappointed, no increase of salary(as said and promised while hiring a candidate) on time and so on. Especially to girls, HR has always been rude and has not given what a candidate must deserve in her salary and appraisal. HR has been partial and only give advantages whom she likes....Read More

If you're thinking about joining Spescscart, this review would definitely help you in making the informed decision. The family owned & controlled startup company has a lot of problem, like sudden changes in policies, making fake promises at the time of hiring, and having a toxic work culture. Managers, especially the HR Head micromanages a lot. HR Head would poke her nose in every domain while having the knowledge of none. Few self proclaimed managers simply try to please HR Head and the CEO, to gain unfair advantages. Most of the 5 star reviews you see are fake, written by the HR Head herself and all the negative reviews gets down voted by the SEO team in efforts to take them down. When there's a problem, instead of showing faith, company abandons their employees - they just hire new people instead. Even when they hire new folks(maybe you, if you are thinking or have have recently joined Specscart), the company would not allow them to bring the creativity on the table. The whole HR Team would be sweet to you at first and later might fire you without any proper reason<mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;">. Often you will receive your paycheck at the middle of the next month from different accounts with no salary slips</mark>. The Managers have the power to make or break any policy according to their own liking. Kudos to all my fellow fallen soldiers those who have worked for Specscart and all the best if you are already a part of the toxic club....Read More

My time at the previous company was a distressing nightmare due to its toxic work culture and the overbearing presence of the HR "overlord." The HR's micromanagement stifled any sense of autonomy, making it difficult to be productive or innovative. Appraisals were non-existent unless you resorted to showing them another job offer from different company. It seemed that the only way to receive any recognition or appreciation for your work was by leveraging an external opportunity. This practice created an unhealthy atmosphere, where employees were constantly on the lookout for other job options, as they knew their worth would not be acknowledged internally. Moreover, the HR department had a perplexing hiring strategy, where they would hire 2-3 new people for each department every month. Some of these new hires joins and 95% of them left within 1 week, contributing to an unstable and inconsistent work environment. <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;"> To make matters worse they failed to provide proper salary slips</mark>. This lack of documentation caused numerous problems, especially in official matters such as obtaining loans or dealing with any government-related work. When employees asked for salary slips, they were met with a barrage of questions and neglect of their urgency, creating unnecessary stress and financial difficulties. The company's control over employees extended to their breaks as well. They did not allow any breaks between the whole workday, leaving us mentally and physically drained, they even dictated with who we would eat our lunch, further diminishing any sense of independence. Adding to the chaos, the HR "overlord" frequently and inexplicably shifted our seating arrangements every new day, without any reasonable explanation. There is the inner circle of 4-5 people (headed by HR) and if someone didn't butter up the inner circle they would make that individual's life miserable, leading them to resign without giving any compensation or prior notice. Moreover, they would unjustly terminate the employee from that very day, leaving them without any support or recourse. Creativity was not encouraged and any attempt to introduce new ideas was met with apathy or rejection. The negative impact of this dreadful work environment was profound, resulting in high turnover and low productivity among the staff. In conclusion, I strongly caution prospective employees to beware of this company's unhealthy work environment. The toxic culture, lack of appraisals, the lack of proper documentation, and the extreme control over breaks and seating arrangements all create an atmosphere where creativity and individuality are stifled. Moreover, the unjust treatment of those who don't comply with the HR leads to a sense of being undervalued and unsupported, with little recourse for fairness. Seek opportunities elsewhere, where your talents and growth will be genuinely appreciated and nurtured....Read More
