Pros

There are good people working here and plenty of social opportunities. The healthcare benefits are quite nice and the company provides sponsorship for the ICSA qualification (provided you have worked for the company at least 1 year). The Company pays overtime at a 1:1 rate, regardless of when the overtime occurs.

Cons

Salary and bonuses are well below market rate, salary increases are minimal to unnoticeable. Having too few staff per team is common and the Company pushes back on all attempts to rectify this causing plenty of overtime. Poor communication from higher up the chain, things just happen and staff are informed afterwards. Disparity of salary between staff is very common, to the point where more experienced staff in a higher position may be getting paid less than those they are training. Any discussions in this regard are pushed down the road and not answered for as long as possible.

Pros

It is growing in terms of new business. Other than this nothing positive.

Cons

One person (Frog in a well) having full control on Financial reporting department running like a his typical Family Business for years, will not care for employee while talking to them and when you come from any other organization you will first be asked to leave whatever culture you have came from and adopt to satisfy culture of his egos, attitude and all levels of demotivation. There is no proper training as such, you will be provided with old working files and they will ask to learn from excel links and formulae. In live work no one will be there to support you and for small small things they will threaten for PIP. In their traditional working methods and templates they will hardly accept any ideas towards automation or reducing manual work. As a formality you will be asked to escalate for any issues to him but if you really raised anything your life will be hell going ahead. There is no HR involvement in any of the decisions of this department as you will be openly asked 'to work for 15 hours a day compulsorily and those who are not ready they can leave'. There is no overtime concept. Please note that above reviews are from my Financial Reporting department experience only other departments might be doing well. Salary wise be careful in accepting package as they have found all possible ways to save their cost and giving you minimum in hand.. e.g. Transport allowance of 6000/- per month is included in your CTC which you will get for non opting their transport but if you go by your car and use their parking then they will charge you 6000/-...!! In lockdown period they didn't pay this allowance to anyone. Company really is on growth stage, acquiring new clients worldwide, India CEO is really best but FR management group of 4 people including HOD are trying to keep their monopoly and not letting anyone to involve in their decisions.
