Pros

1) Freedom to work and implement ideas 2) Good for someone who is technically very sound 3) Very open culture. You can reach out to anyone and ask a question 4) If your work is not getting hampered no one asks question on leave or WFH

Cons

1) Freedom to choose your project (one of the important point of Fractal's culture), is only true if you work with a easy going client. But if you are stuck with a difficult/unreasonable client client you would stuck for life. 2) If you don't ask for a promotion, you are not even considered - no defined criteria of eligibility

Pros

There are a lot of pros 1. Free food 2. Unlimited WFH with a caveat of manager agreement 3. Holidays can be taken at ease 4. Work life balance is good in most of the teams. 5. There is ample learning opportunities within the firm. 6. Freedom and flexibility in choosing projects. 7. Chairman is a super super guy. His thoughts and vision for the company is unmatched. 8. Company bestowes extreme trust in employee 9. No layoffs due to pandemic. 10. If you are paid well, don't leave leave the firm!

Cons

1. The pay has been poor. Some earn a lot on same grade while some are far off. The pay difference on same grade is too much. 2. Old loyal workforce is not valued. They prefer new people who come with big hikes, work for 2-3 years and then leave the firm.Even after being in the company for 5 years ( joined as Fresher) I still have to hit the 6 figure mark. That's how slow the growth can be sometimes. 3. Instead of talent colleges getting preference. The gap between tier 1 vs Tier 2-3 is huge. This gap unfortunately continues even if you are 5 year in the company.Please think before you join if you are from a tier 2-3 college 4. Poor hiring has now made the company top heavy and hence now the people who are already there since long are suffering for their promotions. This is really disappointing for those who put in so much efforts day in and day out and sometimes even nights. Poor reasons are given for not promoting. 5. Pure performance might not guarantee a promotion or good hike. You need to navigate way though politically as well. You need to always ask for a little more which 99% of times will not happen. 6. Quality of consultantis going down day by day. Some of the senior consultant don't even have basic excel and PPT skills which are basic in analytics. 7. Some managers fight for you and some have laxadasical attitude and you suffer. You have to be lucky to get a fighting manager. 8. You might not get the rewards in proportion to the effort you put in.
