Pros

there is nothing to share good about this kone elevator india pvt ltd (GEC). managers are purely egoistic, dominating, behaviors. no professional ethics, basic maners, cultures and all.

Cons

if we ask questions, then u will be cornered. even though we achieve all targets we will not get bonus and increment unless u have to always say yes to ur manger. if u r salve u ll become next manager soon. worst attitude and 100% partiality.

Business Outlook

Pros

Varied & challenging projects. As we grow & adapt the business there are several change programs ongoing to align our internal goals. These changes in the main are driven by many smaller projects which provide exposure to external suppliers, technologies & different parts of the business. Senior management accessibility. There is a door open policy, although I hear Matti prefers not to be interrupted during lunch in the canteen ;-). Got a problem - solve it, but need to bounce some ideas around with one of our board members &, unless you're a complete dork, the door will remain open. It's possible to earn positions of significant responsibility & drive through quite large change programs. It's a go for it environment.

Cons

There's too much administration. Cross functional responsibilities rest often with project managers. It's necessary to spend time selling your achievements internally to win recognition.
