Pros

Steelwedge was a great place to learn. Now there is no scope at all for leanings. Golden days are gone.

Cons

No hikes. No job security. No strong roadmap or vision. No new big logos from past 2+ years. Bad CEO with group of incapable sales team. CEO invested lot of money on marketing and sales teams but no use. Funds have been diverted to incapable teams who struggling a lot to get at least new big logo from many years. CEO, Marketing and Sales teams should stop blaming the product. Many of our competitors are doing excellent sales with what they have. Senior management always takes care of only top 20 talent. No job safety and respect if you are not in top talent pool Million Tons of confusion/doubts about company’s growth and job security. Many teams worked throughout the year (no holidays, weekends…. ). But no salary hikes. Very very bad…. HR team is fit for nothing. HR head is very good in rolling out layoffs. This team is super good in conducting meaningless meetings and chocolates distribution for top 20. Nothing for average and above average employees.

We appreciate your feedback that Steelwedge is a great place to learn. We have made huge investments in re-engineering our product platform. Recent big logo wins and existing customers deciding to upgrade to our latest product platform is great validation that we are moving in the right direction. We feel our top talent plays a key role in driving our success and we are aware that our face-paced environment is not the best fit for everyone.

Pros

SWIFT team is good at organizing events and activities.

Cons

Managers in US have no respect for Indian employees. They want all employees to work on Festival days and when the idea is resented, US manager's abuse the entire Indian community with filthy languages. Our beloved HR team is worthless, other than for signing relieving letters. They are incapable initiating any action even when harassment is reported. Higher Management, instead of taking action against harassment, educate Indian employees to become stronger towards abuse. If the same thing had happened in US, world would be upside down by now. Indian pride is at stake and still the Indian management has no guts to initiate action US managers, such a pity. No point working in a company wherein managers doesn't have spine in the back.

We are sorry to hear about your experience. While we zealously guard ourselves and our culture against all forms of prejudice including ethnicity, religion, personal status, we strongly advise our associates that if they encounter any negative or unprofessional encounter they should immediately let their senior manager or appropriate HR person know so we can immediately address the situation. Our senior management team maintains an “open door” communication policy and also frequently travels across remote development centers to stay in close contact with all employees. Our HR team is obliged to promptly attend to these concerns and take necessary steps. Steelwedge operates through multi locations in the world. We strive to create an inclusive workplace environment by which we leverage our global teams, their ideas and talent. And so diversity is at the heart of our business and who we are. We also ensure all our Managers and Associates understand this e.g. they undergo compulsory training on workplace harassment and prevention of discrimination trainings at least once a year. We have also set up workplace diversity and prevention of harassment committee to address these issues in a timely and objective manner. We are sorry to hear that you are facing this issue and hope you are working through this process internally. We appreciate your feedback.

Pros

Nothing is good. They can hire and fire you any time. Good thing is CTO & founder is out (he has no idea as to what he is doing technically). Best CEO, good background, He built very good marketing team, but unfortunately product failed technically because of former CTO mistakes (tried all technologies without knowledge & with out changing old code), Bad technical design. Good place to learn politics.

Cons

Worst product management team ever seen, they dont know about product. they dont know what they are doing. Worst Development Management poor in technical simply people management and politics. Worst dev managers & leads they dont know about technology but they are technical leaders. (e.g .Net guy leading java developers, sql leader for java developers, Weblogic administrator lead java guys) Worst testing ever seen, always try to create more politics. Lot of technical never share the information for newly joined persons especially who are staying more than 7,8, 10 years. All technical guys already left the company because of old employes, they will not share any information and management also encourage those people and retain if they are resign, management not encourage who working professionally. CTO & founder is out is good thing, but still we have other who are staying 7,8, 10 years with out technical knowledge they dont know latest technologies.
