      Another financial captive company similar to existing ones in India

      Manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good focus and priority by CTO to Bangalore team. India Head is approachable to individuals. Recognition for individuals every month and team every qtr. Free Transportation and Food. Operations division has growth in headcount.

      Cons

      Stagnated growth in terms of head count in technology. Chromebook in lieu of regular laptops, which is a cost cutting measure without value add. US counterparts take credit for work completed by offshore folks. Some US managers and AVP's expect offshore associates to work on weekends / India holidays / festivals.

      Retirement Representative

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Paid training, licensing for 8weeks

      Cons

      Very large disconnect between the training and actual position. You will be immediately placed on an 11:30-8pm shift following training, with no solid development plan. Very poor work/life balance. 18 month internal time requirement makes this is a very stagnant position which leads to decreased personal growth and development. Many in the department have low morale, including team leads and managers. Negativity spreads here like wildfire. As someone who has worked for another large finance company prior to this, I can see the internal discord. A large portion of the hiring for the company consists of entry-level people off the street who don't know any better, essentially. High turnover rates lead to a large presence on online job boards = misleading
