OK company, but long hours and intense pressure

Business development executive

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good incentives, central location and team outings can be a lot of fun.

Cons

Long hours is the biggest con - there is a lot of pressure to stay late and come early when you miss financial targets. Also, there isn't really a training programme - you're thrown in at the deep end. The biggest con would have to be the fact that the business is so central about money it forgets about its workers. In addition, the company doesn't deal with other companies in good faith - it's all about maximum cold callings and see which company takes the bait.

Hike process and work culture

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The managers in the company have ample amount of good/quality work to give to the team provided they are skilled enough to handle one. The learning opportunities are high here.

Cons

The managers in the company may burden you with lot and lot of work unless you object (which might give a negative). The hike process for promotion/regular hike is really poor (you might end up with same percentages in both the scenarios). It is advisable to leave the company and not expect promotion (as you shall be getting more hike in one company switch as compared to two promotions here as per market standards).
