Pros

Not even a single point. I will not consider this as a company. No proper management. They don’t care as long as they are making money out of you. No one talks good or positive about the company even the existing employees. Their own sales and hr manager tells you it’s a useless company to work and they tell you to find another job and leave. employees who keep buttering or does favours to management team they will never be fired. Here your work or hard work doesn’t matter. If you are billed you are safe, else fired immediately. There are no proper projects or customers. The HW head will act as if he controls your life, he will talk as if he can do chip design ( he can’t even draw in paper) and push employees to work on weekends also or threatens to fire. If you resign your life will become hell, Post 90 days notice also they will work on the project or else threaten saying background check we will destroy you by bad feedback. Cases of people served 5 months notice because of these threats by HW head. The hw head is fully support by a coo who busy only making cash by driving employees as salves. The management thinks they are Gods, they do everything to make them self very rich

Cons

You don’t know when they will remove you. They won’t pay you properly after you join, no other benefits. You will wait to leave once you join. If you work in Synapse you won’t get jobs easily. Other companies know that their employees are useless. The really good people who join leave immediately. They will make your life hell. Everything is false, wrong here n corrupt , BEWARE ! Don’t ruin your life by joining here. STOP DO NOT JOIN.

Pros

There is actually nothing which can be considered as pros for this company. Lucky to have survived this period when I was in Synapse

Cons

Worst company that I have worked for. The Management does not care about you. You will be put in some project where the profile does not match. I'm amazed to see good reviews about this company, as I know the truth. The notice period is three months. They will have fancy job advertisements for development in SSD and all, but once you join u will realise that you are sitting in some corner at the client location with some QA guys. If you resign on knowing the truth the HR will threaten with some black listing and other nonsense. To be honest they threatened me even though I had an experience of 6+ years. Join any other company but this one.

Pros

Awesome company without any values. Not much work pressure as not many customers in India. Get to know other employees really well as most of the people dont have work and most of them just do gossiping. All employees would get stock which is of no worth. Company believes in diversification, hence unique rules n regulations for each employee. Based on mgmt's, so called vision, everyone would for sure dream for better hike, bonus, promotions but fortunately or unfortunately..dream remains a dream only. Open door and transparent culture, whenever employees ask queries to management, mgmt cross questions the employees on technical stuffs which most of employees cannot answer, hence it is always proved that "shape up on technical things" rather than asking your silly queries to mgmt. This is the only place I suppose, where the employee is considered to be an allrounder...for example a STA person is expected to write RTL code in client interview. If the candidate cannot write, candidate is not serious about his career and is not focussed. Best place to erase past memory, as there wont be any documentation, designs, learning materials, hence over a time, the candidates would automatically start losing grip on his fundamentals (this is gud or bad u decide). However, mgmt is really understanding and cares for employees growth & career path, hence they have given free hand to get knowledge by means of "beg, borrow or steal". Very flexible HR policies, can be twisted, changed, modified over night. I'm sure an aspiring employee would really get a chance to learn many things, tricks and gets exposure to situations which are very hard to get in other companies. Atleast I can confidently say that working in this company will truely be a learning curve and will be an eye opener for many... believe me !

Cons

"Nothing can think of" as everybody has mentioned in previous reviews except the employee will be screwed up over a time for sure.
