INVECAS reviews

Dear Former Employee, Thanks for your feedback. I will start with a small clarification, I have not been hired to respond to reviews (though that would have been a very simple and lucrative job), this is something that i have started on my own to connect with existing and former employees to gather additional points on what we can do to improve this workplace. This is in addition to my HR-head responsibilities. With that thing out of the way, let me try to address/understand some concerns you have raised here. 1. Please feel free to share the names of these managers with as many specifics as possible with me at ombudsman@invecas.com. I will investigate this further. 2. While we do not have a comp off policy, the information that there are no comp offs is inaccurate. It is dealt with in the same manner as Work From Home, while we do not have policy for it, people still get this benefit on a case to case basis depending on the situation. The same applies to team outings, Vertical Heads are allocated budgets for each quarter and teams have started going for outings. Unfortunately that might not have been the case when you worked with us, but feel free to check with your colleagues on this. 3. You are right in your assessment that the Managers are under tremendous pressure, we are working on rectifying this. But we want to ensure that this does not become an excuse for below-par treatment of engineers. Example: In spite of these pressures, the managers have committed to ongoing feedback which requires the Managers to multiply their effort multifold. And all this has been done to improve the Employee experience. 4. We make sure that freshers who are enrolling at VEDA know the terms of their training and employment clearly. But still, i will pass on this feedback to see what can be improved there. 5. I did not understand your point on calling us a Parasitic company, for a company which has almost single-handedly created the Semiconductor Ecosystem along with launching thousands of professional careers in Hyderabad, I believe that these are very harsh words. 6. Your point on acquisitions is a mixed bag. Acquisitions always invoke a mixed bag of emotions with some employees feeling good about it and others not feeling that great about it. I would like to state this, the employees from the acquired company are treated at par with our existing workforce and we do not differentiate on this count at all. I acknowledge how you feel about this acquisition, the only thing i can say is that it would have been great if you would have given us a chance to address some of your concerns and if you would have stayed back. 7. Your last point on attrition is a bit tricky, i cant quote these numbers here because this is company's proprietary data. However, i will say this, employees have left us in the past and they will continue leaving us in the future, what is important for me at this point is whether they look back fondly at the time they spent at this organization as one filled with learning and friendships. All our efforts are in that direction. Thanks for your time and feedback, HR Head- INVECAS

Dear Ex Colleague, Let me start of by saying that we would have liked you to have a better experience at this organization. From the points which you have mentioned, it seems that you have left the organization before we could show any results on our initiatives in HR or otherwise. As I have mentioned earlier in my responses on this forum, the registers will have to go and its just a matter of time. Your other points are also addressed in my previous responses (Like laptops and MS Office). Your point on IT is actually being worked upon with a very high priority and we are aware of the improvements we can make there. Again, I would say that we have started making changes to some of the pain points and though we are far from where we would like to be, we are definitely going in the right direction. If you would care to share more specific feedback, please feel free to drop us a detailed note on Ombudsman@invecas.com so that we can take appropriate action. Thanks, HR Head INVECAS
