Pros

The work culture and environment is really good. Yearly Hackathon and a emphasis on innovation is something you don't see everywhere. The HRs and most of the upper management are really helpful. Employees are taken care of and their concerns are heard and taken seriously. Quarterly feedback taken by the HR via a chatbot and the content is actually read and taken seriously if any concerns and is addressed quickly.

Cons

Even though we were constantly told by the upper management in frequent townhalls that our company was doing well even in this pandemic, the appraisal given was way below industry standards citing the reason as pandemic which was very ironic. My greatest concern is for their client Citibank and the number of people leaving just because of the client. Like every service company even though the work is being done on latest and cutting edge technologies, what the client asks for deadline wise and design wise is final. Citibank is one of the worst clients you can work for be it from any company. The Citibank employees don't give enough respect and treat the vendors are inferior people. Very short deadlines and too much work pressure at least for this client is making people resign and the management has not yet realized this I guess.

Pros

Salary Hike is Regular. Salary offered is generally greater than industry norm.

Cons

1. Blatant mismatch of Core Skills for which an employee is interviewed to the matching performed at the client location. I was matched to a project with C++ whereas my core skills were Java. If I was told at the outset that my client project would be in C++, I would've refused. Not everyone is comfortable with all the languages. 2. The client project managers are not flexible to play to your strengths. The project I received was something in which no other permanent employee was tasked with. The tasks were mostly support type in nature. There was no real development and most of the development went to the Permanent position engineers within the team. 3. The Project Partner is hell bent on scaring the employee deployed at client location. 4. The reservations of the employee will not be listened to as the client voice is paramount. It's not a Product based company by any measure of standard. 5. The number of clients during my time were minimal, I interviewed after dropping from that job and was placed at another client. But considering the bad experience I had, i opted to move out from the job to a much better place. People working with me from Altimetrik themselves came out of the client within 4 months from my departure. All had the same reservations. 5. If you seriously want to work and improve your tech calibre, please do not join this company. One wrong career move can waste precious time you could've honed your skills. I wasted 9 months of my life and I never felt better in retrospect about the company any time.

Dear ex-Altimetrian, Thanks for sharing your experience. We are not sure what led to the mismatch of your skills with the client requirement. Altimetrik has never claimed to be a product company. We partner with our clients to build products and solutions for them, which some times does include support roles. In the last one year, we have added more than a dozen Fortune league companies in our client portfolio and statistically 90% of our work today is core development related. We are presently hiring for several Java positions. Your feedback helps us understand gaps that have possible existed before. Wish you a great career ahead!

Pros

Nothing.....not applicable for this company.

Cons

every possible con you can think. i was working under an architect who was not proficient in basic high school level java. When i suggested some solutions in order to stream line the abysmal situation they have...i got the best answer in my life...."we don't want them to see what we doing". The company is fact is full of highly talented newcomers but the higher management and the hr management is a joke.

Dear ex-Altimetrian, Thank you for the review. We are very sorry to receive your feedback on this forum. We wish you had reached out to an Engineering Leader or the Site Lead of your location while you were here. Altimetrik is a fast growing company working with several leading brands as you would already know. Our growing client base is a testimony to our delivery capability and commitment. The experience you have cited here is unfortunate, given the short time you have spent with us. However, like you said, we are welcoming highly talented newcomers every day and looking forward to further growing our strengths. Sincere wishes for your career and future!
