Pros

Work Life Balance Leave Policy Hybrid Model

Cons

Negligible Growth Office Politics Lesser hikes like TCS unless you are based out of Noida. Hesitation to adapt new tech and tools No transparency in appraisals Not advisable if you are a technical person and grow technically. If Microsoft deprecate power Apps,BI and automate, you will loose job.

After more than eight years with the business, it is fantastic to hear such strong feedback about the technical quality of our people and the benefits of our employee-owned culture. We are also pleased that hybrid working continues to support a positive experience for you in Cardiff. Your comments around openness to change within parts of the organisation are equally appreciated. As a long established business, balancing experience and stability with innovation and new ways of working is something we continue to focus on across our teams and leadership. Thank you for sharing such thoughtful and balanced feedback. Contributions from experienced colleagues like you are incredibly valuable in helping shape how we continue to evolve.
