Pros

I met some great people and learned a lot in a short amount of time.

Cons

Worked like a dog. long hours, immense stress and pressure. Little to no training. Quite a shame that being an IT company the systems and tools are so outdated. Absolutely no work life balance. Managers would call me at all hours of the day/night for work. Being berated and belittled constantly by higher ups is the norm. My manager lied to the team constantly, pitted us against each other. Threatened to fire us constantly. Micromanaged everyone. Made derogatory and offensive comments about peoples appearances and personal lives . The company culture is just horrible, especially if you're a woman. Overall, just an awful company to work for.

Pros

decent compensation and perks. organization might perform better with new leadership

Cons

where do I begin? Unless you're a native Tamilian, the working environment is like working in hell. Tamil is a frequently used language in offices and numerous meetings when people ask each other questions they don't want you to know. It's common to look at somebody, say something in Tamil, and then laugh. For lunch and supper, only certain employees are invited. We are never even invited, but they always order extra food to take home and expense it in our name. These guys act in a very petty manner while earning a significant wage from the corporation. You can anticipate another staff member from Chennai when a USA employee is fired. We are viewed as underperforming employees because they don't share any knowledge or consider us to be a part of the team. The rules are different for everybody, and you have to forget about promised raises and promotions if you don't fall into that family. you have to accept them, otherwise you will be demoted or given a task to complete without any help or information, at which point your boss will continue to put you down in front of everyone until you breakdown. you can never win a fight with your boss and your boss will make you realize the power he has. On the other hand, mani is a sinister and often makes vulgar comments, he is protected by boss. It's normal for them to miss work even on a family birthday, but if you have a medical emergency, you'll have to provide justification for the next few weeks and you'll always be ridiculed, even criticized. called old.

Pros

1. Pays salary on time 2. Health insurance is good 3. Match 401k up to 4.5% 4. Fortune 100 client base and great client exposure 5. Salary - if you know the person who is in charge of salary adjustments or if you are from his region, you can get an increment. 6. Bench people are sent on furlough, this will encourage you to step out of the comfort zone and apply for other jobs coz you will not have psychological safety 7. You can get a director or VPs salary and do a tech lead, business analyst or scrum master job. Easy work. Easy money. 8. You do not have to worry about the HR department, they only wake up during the appraisal period to help the CPO with the bell curve. If you have a problem, I dare you to find the BUHR 9. You could experience military culture. Plan to worship some gods. 10. You can experience south Asian management styles. Good experience.

Cons

No cons to say. 2021 attrition numbers are going to be impressive
