Pros

I dont think there is any pros which can be written compare to another IT company

Cons

Lots of Cons. Poor communication of employee, no technical improvement , no re-allocation, managment doesn't bother about employee's presonal as well as professional growth, old working culture and narrow minded managment, no training no documentation of any development, raising any issue to managment may lead to lose job without giving prior notice,

Pros

If you belong to the same community as the leadership group (Middle-Eastern/Muslim), you may find favorable treatment, job security, and growth opportunities. Work-from-home allowed occasionally.

Cons

1. Extreme Religious Bias The company environment is heavily biased. Religious favoritism affects everything — from appraisals to promotions to daily treatment. 2. Unfair Appraisal System The bell curve system is misused to downgrade performance ratings of non-preferred employees, blocking them from hikes, bonuses, and growth. 3. Holiday Discrimination Only Islamic festivals are recognized with multiple holidays and gifts. Other cultural festivals (like Diwali, Raksha Bandhan) are ignored or treated like normal workdays. 4. Exclusive Religious Practice in Office Premises Dedicated space for one group’s prayers 4–5 times daily. Others are not given similar facilities or allowances. 5. Unexplained Mass Firings Non-Muslim employees are often terminated without warning or reasons. Employees get “important HR meeting” emails the evening before and are let go the next day without any justification. 6. Nepotism Many employees (especially in power) are relatives of leadership, even if they lack technical qualifications. Several come from non-technical backgrounds like arts, commerce, or sales. 7. Toxic Work Culture Highly political environment. Survival depends on religious or personal connections, not talent or performance. 8. Leadership Instability Four CEOs changed in two years — all non-Muslims. The current CEO, from a favored background, remains protected despite inefficiencies. 9. Poor Gender Diversity Out of 70 employees, barely 4–5 are women, with 90% of them working in HR roles. No women in technical leadership or decision-making positions. 10. HR Works for Leadership, Not Employees HR lacks neutrality. They ignore genuine concerns, pressure employees to leave fake positive reviews, and justify unfair decisions from the top.

Pros

very handfull good types of projects

Cons

Senior resource in pos team. They always take credit of other employees and shows to the Management that he had done all the work. Whenever new projects come they take under thier resposibilty and utilise max duration of project doing nothing and later they assign it to other employe and force them to finish it in very less time.
