Pros

Except the Bonus which was 160%, nothing.

Cons

1. Employees are not treated fairly 2. Contractors are treated as God, without them the company won't run 3. HRs are arrogant and unavailable whenever required. 4. The company operates worse than Service Based companies and there are no benefits to the employees 5. Employee Salary is disclosed to Managers which is unfair and employees are assessed based on their salary and not technical capabilities. 6. There is no expectation set during hiring but once employees join they expect employees to be available 24 x 7 and 365 days a year. 7. There is no work-life balance for employees however Contractors enjoy all the benefits including Lunch Break, unlimited Snack Breaks, Walk Break, Dinner Breaks, Games and many others.

Pros

This was a great company 2 years back but it's going downhill with childish policies and too much micro management for stuffs like shift allowance. Sometimes you feel like giving bugshis to company itself instead of arguing with HR or Managers for shift allowance.

Cons

Constant organizational changes. All Senior Managers are Bengalis who do partiality to North Indians. Transport is no longer free and charging Rs. 3000 per month. Shift allowance only if you go to office which is Rs. 300 only but they make you feel like they are giving Rs.3000. HRs are too arrogant and they would love every opportunity to deny you the shift allowance for silly reasons. Swipe-in and Swipe-out time is seen for shift allowance. No proper Business Titles. Sr. Specialist is equivalent to Associate Manager but Manager is given preference. Run by contractors than employees. Travel freeze because company is not doing well at present.
