Pros

Joining promises are top class. I joined this company 2 times. First time for three years as an Associate, done so much hard work, get lots of appreciations, but no promotions. I left this company and joined Moody's for next two years. In two years I took two promotions. Then I joined EXL again as Manager, and five years down the line still manager, no growth at all.

Cons

Growth and promotions processes are not transparent. I have seen a person who joined with me at same designation is now senior manager. And the reason is that he has left job for other company for 1 year and rehired as a Senior Manager :). So if you need a promotion in this company, leave this company for around a year or two and then join back to seniors positions.

Pros

Paycheck clears, that’s about it.

Cons

Started off with supportive leadership, teamwork and opportunities to grow. At the start of this year, entire department went toxic. Leadership stopped communicating, people getting fired, threats that you would get fired, being told that they are “reducing workforce” in august, creating ridiculous metrics that were impossible to meet due to their own bad technology. Coworkers started getting mental and physical health issues trying to keep their jobs, and many are trying to leave. I have never seen such a toxic workplace in my 30 years of employment in this industry.
