Pros

Srikanth and his passion is unbelievable.

Cons

A really cool concept, People Principles were launched few months back. But due to that "the leaves accumulated till that point are not being encashed - which is clearly unethical". To make matters worse there has been no communication from HR whatsoever. I am 3 years in the company and clearly feel let down due to this, at the end of the day it is a big amount and not getting your share truly hurts :( It must be done right away.

Fractal Response

Hi there, Thanks for your note. Please connect with our CFO or Chief People Officer to discuss this. I hate to see Glassdoor being used as a mechanism to resolve individual issues. Fractal now has stopped tracking people's vacation time which means that you can take any number of days off (as long as you are consistent with our overarching guideline - Do what's right for the client and what's right for Fractal). So, you can, arguably, take enough days off to compensate for the accumulated leave you had when this principle kicked in. If you leave, we can still compensate you for the leaves you had at the time when people principles kicked in. Please speak with our CFO or Chief People Officer on this. Srikanth PS - I don't care how you rate me as a CEO - you giving a 1-star rating to Fractal is hurtful. Please feel free to write me an email rather than washing our dirty linen in public forums and sullying Fractal's reputation.

Pros

-Free food -Flexi timings -Flexi leaves -work from home

Cons

I am shocked to see the CEOs response that freshers are allowed to choose! This is completely untrue. Freshers are asked to select their choices and when they choose modelling based projects (which are less), they are given reasons like the following: "You are new, I think you should learn a little first. So I think a reporting project is best for you. " And once you stay in reporting, you are stuck for it forever , as the managers would say that you need to be in a project for atleast 2 years! who are you kidding?? "You can do more consulting in reporting than in analytics project " Leads are pathetic.. All they care about is themselves and their selfish motives. They have no inclination to work. SHOCKED THAT THE CEO IS NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS!
