Cons

-ZF Hyderabd offers high package at joining but yearly increments are less for those who joined with higher salaries -Most of the Team leads and managers recruited from service based companies like KPIT so they dont know work culture -Many of the team leads in ZF hyderabad shout at below employees and behave rudly -Mangers will talk only with team leads and never interact with team members -Managers are not interested in knowing the issues in the teams and even if they know the issues they never try to resolve the issues -Team leads never takes the employee feedback positively -No work life balance and mental stress at work -Need to fill the every day work details and exact effort in hrs in Manual excel sheet(lot of headache and team leads monitor this very minute details) -Micro management -Variable pay is never paid 100% to employees -Blame game played by team lead -Very very rare onsite oppurtunity for only in some german teams -Need to sign the bond for onsite oppurtunity -Onsite money paid is very less.For Germany onsite they will pay 37 euros per day(Very less when compared to other) -No job Safety -Late night work common in all USA teams and health will damage due to this -Employees are treated as slaves -They mostly take Telangana and Andhra employees by offering good initial packages.They know that telugu people cant move easily from Hyderabad and they take advantage of this -HRs are dumb and they follow only manager words(No use of discussing with HR) -Never join in the company by following the trap of initial high salary

Pros

- Global reputation is good - Few teams in India have good tasks

Cons

- Worst management, many decisions unjustifiable - 9.5 HOURS OF WORKING TIME, NO WORK LIFE BALANCE - HR doesn't support employees, instead they are puppets of management; when you ask tough questions only answer you get is 'thats what guidelines say' which are somewhere in their head (not documented) - Poor communication skills of HR and recruitment team - Company has no guidelines yet for appraisal - Internal employees in Finance are Most Arrogant - Only criteria to be considered as an efficient employee is whether you belong to this part of India or not - Worst place chosen for an office bldg, and maybe the city also *** IMP: ALL THE GOOD REVIEWS YOU SEE ARE EITHER WRITTEN BY HR OR BY EMPLOYEES WHO ARE FORCED TO DO IT.
