Managers hired from Indian generic companies are spoiling the work culture . Be careful when you work under Archana Verma. She abuses employees a lot and does not allow to speak up. She is also involved in many unethical practices in the company with respect to employess

Salary and Job security is best. It's like government job in terms of job security. Salary is well above industry standards for cutting edge analytics roles.

Dislikes

...romotions. Favouritism, boot-licking, corporate politics is at the utmost level. If your salary and position is higher as per general experience range, then no matter what you do you won't get promoted.

Likes

Overall policies are good but they are often bent for bad reasons. Managers are incapable but they try to harass their reportees as much as possible. Very few people are work focused, more time is spent behind networking and office politics...

Dislikes

...es. Overcomplicated local policies, hardly any employee is working with passion. Mostly working for salary, which is decent.
