Smiths Detection Reviews

Appraisals are dismal - 2-3% only. No long term vision, sudden changes in the teams and roadmaps at the whims of the leadership. Inconvenient office location and mandatory work from office days. Peak office politics. Incompetent technical architects who don't do their own jobs and make others' life difficult. The company culture has become very toxic. Dictatorship like leadership from Europe is not concerned about employees well being at all.

- SGP and IND extended team is set up almost 3 years back and yet to put basic processes and team structure in place - Techies are forced to work on parallel development work without proper guidance and training which calls for never ending re-work cycle, hampers quality of delivery and takes a huge toll on work life balance. - Unrealistic delivery expectations and poor resource assignment and allocation. Eg. UI devs are often expected to work on hard core backend work with a week’s notice. - Lack of resources both human and hardware in the team to deliver the ongoing assignments - No co-ordination and collaboration between different center of excellences. - Extremely slow career growth prospects and huge discrepancy between Designation, Role, Grade and actual job role.
