Pros

Only good for those who are (most important) marathi, don't want to work much, keep on sitting and waiting for time to pass by so that their experience would grow and eventually they will get promotions to reach the same higher management which is good for nothing today and will be good for nothing tomorrow. Now you know what type of people are forming the higher management and why they are SKILL-LESS couch potatoes.

Cons

- Pathetic/paralyzed/waste higher management, not capable of bringing enough work to grow. - No growth to internal talent & when it is raised and talent moves out, two donkeys are hired for a horse. This gives less cost and more billing. - Its a service model for product based firms, so all good work they keep (mostly) and garbage and monotonous work comes in your plate. - Complete decision making is with client, so you get no scope to apply your innovation, design skills. - They are trying to streamline appraisals, but will not succeed until they stop giving (crying) QUOTA excuses to top performers and eventually giving them B\C band where as they deserve A\B. - Due to these lethargic management practices major accounts are closing. - No corporate culture. everyone is fond of and speaking in marathi, even in meetings even with client where possible. - HR/Admin instead of working for improving felicities and work environment, comes up with silly ideas like paid parking inside office, paid bus service (which was free earlier) - Food (lunch) is in your CTC whether you eat it or not. Quality of lunch served constantly degrading. - They give you package equivalent to experience/grade in service based companies and to make it even worst they don't have any onsite policy and near to zero onsite opportunities. - Very limited (negligible) onsite opportunities. - There is an undeclared bias for marathi subordinates by marathi managers in giving (very limited) onsite opportunities. This happens by exploiting the non existence of any company policy for onsite aspirants. If I keep on thinking and listing, this list can grow pretty fat.

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.
