      Don't join India Location/Branch

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      if you are joining other than India location then its awesome place to work for as they use latest tech, flexible working hours, WFH, good work culture & people.

      Cons

      Don't join India location. i was working with Amesterdam & later joined Indian team. Here in India most people are from service based company background. So they are ruining the work culture with micro management, work pressure, toxic cculture.For them only output matters.

      Don't join

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      joined in hyderabad. initial experience was good. i was working with amesterdam people. they were very nice, good work culture, flexible working hours, good techs stacks were used. Above mentioned things were there till I was working in Hyderabad but with Amesterdam team. But hyderabad has formed there own team. That's where everything has changed. Nothing goood here to join or work.

      Cons

      Since are they expanding in india. So they are hiring anyone. As a result most of them are from very small service based companies leading to micro management, toxic work culture, too much pressure, politics, no annual hike if you join on or after 1st oct, Someone has rightly mentioned in one of the Glassdoor reviews that don't join india location.

      Backbase India: Don't fall for the sweet talks from HR during Recruitment.

      Senior backend engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Pro's which HR going to tell you during your Hiring process 1)Good Hardware/Software Infrastructure is provided for the employees.(I will agree on this.) 2)WFH(Not gone make any difference whether you are working from home or space as you are going to work 12-15hrs). 3)Medical Insurance( Company will provide 10 lakhs Insurance for you and your family but there is no option to Top-up are increase the limit so not as good as they tell you, considering the current Hospitalizations expenses.)

      Cons

      Phase1: a)First 15-20 days you feel like wow what a great on boarding process. Phase 2: a)Once you are into the project the pressure you feel from day 1 believe me you are going to remember me for not listening to me :) b)You will be assigned lot of work and your Co-workers will try to help you but they will be assigned with lot more work than you so you wont be getting much of help. c) The way project was handled by Project managers and Scrum masters is worst that I have seen in my 10 years of IT experience. Scrum masters here are slaves/dummies under project managers and commit to whatever they say and put it on team rather than protecting the team.
