Pros

I have been with Persistent for past 2 years. Very much depends on what team you work with. There some really good projects and some really bad ones. Work life balance also depends on the project you are in. Admin is very helpful. Transportation is an issue if you stay far away from the office. Some very good clients and talented people to work with.

Cons

Even if you work your a** out, what you'll get in 15% increment. If you challenge this, they'll tell you that Infosys has not given any increment. If you say I am talented, they'll tell you that we need PEOPLE and NOT TALENTED PEOPLE. The brand name of Persistent has spoiled lately. There is no employee retention policy. Extremely talented people are also treated like all others. Your increment and salary depends on the quota of promotions or budget allocated to your business unit.

Pros

Persistent Systems provides good learning opportunities, supportive teams, and exposure to real client-facing projects. The work environment is professional, and employees get chances to improve technically, take ownership, and grow with the right guidance.

Cons

Since I am still relatively new to the organization, I have not experienced any major cons that need to be highlighted at this point. So far, the overall experience has been positive, and I am still learning more about the company culture, processes, and long-term growth opportunities.

Pros

I recently joined Persistent Systems and have had a positive experience so far. The company provides opportunities to work with modern technologies, learn new skills, and collaborate with talented professionals. The onboarding process was well organized, and the support from team members and managers has been helpful. The work environment is professional and employee-friendly, with a strong focus on continuous learning and career growth. I appreciate the company's investment in training, certifications, and emerging technologies such as AI and automation. The culture encourages collaboration, knowledge sharing, and innovation.

Cons

Compensation can be lower than market rates for certain roles and experience levels. While the learning opportunities and work environment are strong, salary growth may not always keep pace with industry benchmarks.
