Pros

Nothing good about this company. Even the benefits which they provide (For Marketing Reasons) cannot be guaranteed.

Cons

Fractal boasts itself as Best Place to work, don't be fooled by it. They provide "free food" but won't give you time to even eat. You will have to give justification that you need 20 and not 15 min to finish your lunch. MicroManagement. You would have to fight for time given for work and justify why you need that much time to complete work. "Flexible Working Hours : "Your manager will call you at night, early morning, on weekends for work. EMs here include weekends also in project timelines. Fractal is the most horrible company I have worked for. There is no professionalism in this company. They may say "Choose your own boss", but it is nearly impossible to get release from current project. And in other projects also work is horrible. MS Excel and PowerPoint work. Manual data cleaning work. "Do not track leaves" it is nearly impossible to get leaves, because company doesn't allocate you official leaves. And you cannot even encash leaves not taken by you. Problem is service based model, they want client to to pay your salary. Employees are not on Company Payroll. The only focus of company is on your billing. They will even tag you in multiple projects and you will be working 16 hours a day and on weekends too.

Pros

The company's client centricity is exceptional, with a deeply embedded focus on delivering value, reflected in a strong and loyal client base built on high levels of trust and credibility. There is a significant commitment to AI research and forward looking capabilities, alongside a clear investment in building a people first culture over time. The company is well regarded in the market with a strong foundation for continued growth

Cons

TMT suffers from ineffective leadership at the helm with little visible effort to grow capabilities or drive meaningful outcomes. Exec contribution to growth is largely absent, making the net impact negative. Cultural values are not consistently reflected in day to day execution. It has a pattern of positioning other teams negatively including Growth, Tech, AI, and PA rather than partnering, which creates real friction with them resulting in loss of opportunities. There is genuine talent within the team being held back by leadership that prioritizes internal politics over building real capability, resulting in shallow vertical capabilities. The gap between what the company expects and what leadership enables the team to deliver is significant and consistently unaddressed
