Pros

1. Some of the best Analytics work is done here in collaboration with some of the best minds. 2. The atmosphere is energetic, full of zeal and it motivates you to give your best. 3. There is a great emphasis on work-life balance; be it through extra-curricular activities or the utmost flexibility given to the employees. 4. The level of transparency is unparalleled right up to the top level.

Cons

1. The middle management (especially laterals) bring in their own set of values and find it difficult to adhere to the Fractal way of working. This dilutes the Fractal experience for some people. 2. If you are not in the mood to learn new things every day, Fractal isn't the place for you.

Pros

Open culture, Visionary CEO, Flexible timing

Cons

Fractal is not what it used to be, although CEO has a great vision about the company and Analytics industry but is unable to imbibe it within the organisation as the Apex team is very week and are unable to take responsibilities. Fractal although is 15 years old organisation but not matured and thus doesn't learn from it's mistakes. Infact in tough times, there decision making is even worse. Fractal came up with People Principles which seems to be extinct now as no one follows it esp. when it relates to moving within projects and choosing Managers. Fractal has invested so much in coming up with different platforms, KM, FMS, Hive to name a few but information in all these tools is still incomplete and hence can't be used for the purpose they were created. Fractal has started hiring team in Apex with very less or inaccurate experience and also promoted very old employees but this impacted the Leadership and therefore Apex Members have no idea about the projects and Team Management and are good in blaming team members. Although Fractal has standard goals across organisation and few rules for promotions but none of them are followed and a few people are promoted even if they haven't achieved goals whereas others are still waiting

Pros

Good experience with reporting. Lots of college pass out grads. Average age at any designation is much lower compared to other analytics companies.

Cons

LT does not have right vision. Too much of non add value process. Inefficient managerial system. Organization hierarchy is Inflated and inappropriate. Some one works as Associate Director / senior consultant can get outside opportunity at max team lead / manager. Business development growth is slow.
