A shell of what Ness used to be. - Program Manager Ness Digital Engineering Employee Review

1) Back to office during a pandemic. Why should anyone put themselves or their families at risk by following your stupid guidelines? Your canned response of "The decision to resume work from office was taken after careful consideration of the employee’s safety both while they commute and while they are in office." is ironical, stupefying and racist. Why is it mandatory only for India offices and not for ones in EU or USA? Think about how your decisions are seen by employees. Also, when the COO says "if people are going to buy vegetables, why can they not come to office?", you know that you're working for a leader who does not care bout your well being. 2) Miserly to the core. Cost savings by laying off existing employees on bench and then hiring frmo the market by paying double the amount, there is no logic to some of the decisions taken by management. Simple maths can show you are paying more in hiring from the market than investing in your existing assets (employees). 3) Ineffective decisionmaking - Expect delays in approvals for the smalles of the things. No one has authority except the COO. Runs operations like his personal petri dish. No doubt the result is a diseased delivery function struggling to support various customer engagement. 4) Useless HR - Complete function in India is a joke. Incapable of taking decisions or being empathetic to the employees. Nobody cares abuot your fun activities or Nesscoffee's with management. Useless.
