Business Outlook

Pros

No nurturing of talent Very bad middle management If u r non billable to client u will be treated as uneducated even after MBA HR is worst Salary is worst Rating is biased No work life balance

Cons

Since space was less putting cons in both fields as there r no pros This is true that when it was not acquired by Genpact it was good company but after 2010 it became the worst place to work, please dont waste your time to join thia company Join it unless you r really jobless and they are ready to take you, and understand genpact has acquired headstrong noida its name has been changed but still HR and management is running this division separately All rules are of Genpact where there are company benifits And still HR policies are of headatrong where there is loss for resources (its just an example of narrow management thinking)
