Pros
Hike is good on average Package is good for new joinees Have started working on and implementing certain new technologies.
Cons
Work life balance has been seriously impacted throughout the last 1 year Have to work for long hours each and every day. There is hardly any entertainment. Can't take leaves, this is the worst of all.Even though you have lot of mandatory leaves they won't let you take.You have to plan well in advance and have to fight and give hundreds of reasons for even 4 - 5 days leave and that too they might try to cancel at the last moment, they won't understand or care about family problems or your health issue. Project management is awful. Don't understand any technical stuff and only cares about timelines.They can make your life hell, they will call you at odd hours , they don't care whether you are in hospital or in funeral. They yield more powers than your manager. Quality of products are degrading because of the workload and the deadlines and the pressure created by the project management to meet them. If you are working good they will keep on assigning more work to you until I becomes impossible for you to handle. You won't find a single day where you can relax a bit and sit somewhere for half an hour and have tea or coffee, they will immediately call you. Work load is increasing as lot of people are leaving and the company is not recruiting experienced people to fill the void. There is not much benefits for employees, no free cabs or meals or even snacks. Monetary awards also has been cancelled only certain points based merchandise system is there which is not very useful. Lot of useless meetings. Lot of dependency in works but your manager or project managers won't understand this, they expect you to do everything.They expect you to call others wake others from sleep or contact them while they are in emergency and get you unblocked in your work, if you can't do that it's your responsibility. Lot of companies are offering more package nowadays with much lesser workload. The management can only consider increasing your pay if you put down your papers,. Otherwise they won't care much about normalising the salaries of old employees with newer recruits, there is a huge difference in salary between them. Technically incompetent people at certain top posts will commit the delivery dates to the customers without consulting the technical people and without knowing the technical challenges.
