Pros

1. Friendly colleagues 2. Some dedicated analysts 3. Helpful admin and IT department but always overburdened

Cons

1. The top management think that because attrition and client losses have happened in the past it is not something to worry about. Good people leave. People who can't find a job anywhere else are left. 2. There is no match what Fractal has capability to do and the work that has to be done. Sales folks say yes to all client requests. Analysts suffer having to do impossible tasks in crazy timeframes with little or no manager guidance. Managers are only available to take credit. 3. Some people work 14-18 hours a day. Many people come in after 12 and leave by 6. Even some top management (SVP and VP level) contribute nothing but just talk and talk and talk. 4. Spends money on air tickets but can't give its analysts a raise. 5. Takes on random clients for short projects and calls them logo wins. 6. Worst HR department. Never ever helpful for anything. There is zero long term plan. Most decisions are completely random and replaced by more random decisions. Fractal is alive because of sheer luck.

Pros

Used to be one of the Best organizations to work, currently in a downtrend. Still retains the DNA but needs to get its act together fast to stop the rot

Cons

Less Projects, which leads to massive under utilization of current employees. People are hired externally with internal employees not getting adequate projects or opportunities. Current employees pay the price of this mismanagement with instability in their careers and their variable cut out.

Pros

Good brand name and analytics training

Cons

Lots of them. 1. No work life balance. 2. After hardworking of 2-3 years you can get promotion but without salary hike. HR gives gyaan that it is band change and not promotion. Nonsense. 3. Leadership is very high headed and think they are better than anyone. They all are always waiting for IPO. 4. New CEO is always absent. CEO mentioned in Glassdoor is not the CEO anymore. 5. Leaders love firing people. HR does nothing.
