Pros

- Some of the employees are very talented and used to have good project - CEO, is very nice and humble person.

Cons

- 80% of the Managers don't have any knowledge of analytics and getting increment and promotion on the basis of buttering skills. - Can't pay high salary, and fired them with non-sense reasons - Chief people officer is nothing but a designation to fear employees, even that designation has created by firing a talented HR manager - This is not the company what it used to be, its a sinking ship now

You clearly have had a pretty bad experience at Fractal. This is not typical and I wish you had experienced what many other Fractalites do, a place where they thrive and exceed their potential. I also wish you had reached out while you were still at Fractal so that we could have found a solution, or at the very least, come to a clearer & shared understanding of the situation and specific instances. Wherever your career may take you next, consider stepping up, voicing your concerns, and finding a solution. Regards, Raj

Pros

Free food, no in-out timings

Cons

1. Menial reporting work 2. No decent projects 3. Once chilled atmosphere is now bone-chilling with frequent firings 4.Internal training FAA sucks in its content 5. Middle-management has no clue about the industry requirements but u'll get good increments & even an on-site opportunity if u hve super good terms with them. Other than that they are hopeless. 6.Senior colleagues who know a thing or two about modeling, consider themselves to be data scientists. 7. The huge variable pay is actually not a component of your salary. It is pure eye-wash, carrot-stick to attract you.

One of the 7 people principles at Fractal is: "The content of our work is respectable no matter what it is - as long as the why and how are clear". Fractalites, including yourself I hope, internalize this principle to create value for our clients. If the why and how is unclear, or you would like to provide specific feedback on FAA courses, or the managers you quote here, please write to us anonymously and share this input at http://bit.ly/FractalQuestionBox Raj

Pros

Srikanth's Leadership. Humble and down to earth leader Free Food Flexible timing's Projects are available if you look out(reaching out and being proactive is the key, unfortunately people don't do that) Smart people to interact and learn from. People's principles.(Unfortunately some employees take them for granted) Adoption and focus on AI,ML and other technologies to bring innovation.

Cons

Quality of work can be improved. Misuse of people principles by few employees. Poor middle management. People after becoming managers don't want to do hands on work. Compensation is below industry standards. Of late people with great skills are not valued much. The environment has become of fear and stress although it is temporary. Nepotism Visibility should be taken care by managers but unfortunately it is not by some. 20% promotions are bootlickers.
