Pros

- flexible hours - not much I have found as I have been on bench since first day.

Cons

- The bench system is simply pathetic, I have joined this org with so many hopes but since from the first day I have been put to bench. this is really frustrating everyone on bench is so disappointed after joining here. people are here from more than a quarter and they don't have any project. The project allocation project needs some serious improvement. I have never imagined me going to office everyday and doing nothing productive. simply wasting my technical experience.

Worst company for fresher

Pros

1. Technical Training 2. Gym 3. Cab for late working 4. Pantry 5. Dinner(quality not good though sometimes) 6. Table Tennis, Cricket, Badminton etc 7. Fun Fridays(some events are good)

Cons

1. They kept me on bench for 3 months after extended training(which was very slow). 2. Then they distributed projects randomly without any basis. Some of the brightest minded people got into worst projects which are using legacy technology(like vb.net) which will have no use in the future and then they don't let you change your project for at least 1.5 years and that too with good ratings, how is one supposed to have good rating if he doesn't have any interest in learning legacy technologies, and after 1.5 year they take interviews before getting you into new project and now you will have no new required skills because you have only worked on legacy technologies. Good people people are suffering, and that's why they are switching jobs. 3. They organize learning program but they are not helpful at all for getting into the new project because they will only assign projects randomly. 4. The team who is responsible for assigning projects(RM Team) don't event know what is going on in any project that's another reason for assigning projects randomly. 5. They are hiring a lot of people and there are not enough projects for everyone. And also they have so low CTC, well that is expected as they are hiring a lot. They should focus on quality rather than quantity. 6. Earlier the appraisals used to be so good, but now that has also reduced leading to lots of people leaving the company and therefore they are hiring more and more. I have heard the most appraisal that someone have got is 1.2 and that when he has used his full power and will to do all the work, participated in all events. They are not recognizing talent anymore. 7. Initial package is also very low, well they can't do anything about that until they focus on quality hiring. To summarize, they are ruining our lives.

Nagarro Response

Dear young colleague, I am sorry you have a negative opinion of the company you work at :-) But the facts you mention are somewhat at variance with things as they are on the ground. Let me at least provide my perspective. I assume you are based in Gurgaon or Jaipur. In these locations, the actual matching of freshers to projects isn’t done by the regular Talent Allocation and Planning team (which you call the RM team) but by the Freshers Team. This team is dedicated to the hiring and training and allocation of fresh graduates joining Nagarro. It is run by no less a person than Manmohan Gupta, co-founder of Nagarro and also of Vidyamandir Classes. He is quite the guru - I was once with him at IIT Delhi, for example, and he was mobbed by IIT students and even IIT professors (who had been his students). He guides which freshers get to work on which projects based on how they have performed in their training and assessments. It may not always be rosy for everyone but it is far from random. You say we don’t have enough projects at Nagarro and at the same time you say that we are hiring a lot of people. The first of these statements is incorrect. We are hiring people only because we have a lot of work! We aren’t that rich or stupid to hire people when work doesn’t exist. You appear to have joined Nagarro last year when there was great uncertainty in the India job market and salaries were rather static, not least because of unfavourable foreign exchange movements. Many large companies had deferred their appraisals even. We are in a very different state this year and salaries are likely to stay buoyant for a while. Nagarro is committed to paying top salaries for top people and, like others in the industry, we see the spread between top performer and average performer salaries even increasing. We are happy to move with the times. Hope you soak this all in, settle down and find some peace at Nagarro!

Hit and miss company

Pros

hit if you land up in good project

Cons

Nagarro is a typical 3 star company. In early 2020, it had ~900 reviews(in 14 years of its existence) and a 3.7 star rating(I checked glass door before joining). don't be fooled by the ratings. 1. Nagarro has a highly client centric culture. If client misbehaves with you or hires you for latest technologies but later forces you to work in legacy support, you are screwed. At best you can apply for a project change which requires minimum 1.5 years before and 4-6 months after applying to change project. 2. There is no flexibility with employees to choose their projects. They are allotted purely on a random basis (though taking your skills into considerations) and you have to clear interviews as if you are joining a new company. So even if you got relieved from your previous project (which was legacy support), you won't have a choice if the random allocation process chooses another such project for you. There is a namesake option to reject proposal, but HR will then frisk you. You may perform poorly in interview to get rejected, but that will affect your profile and job security. 3. They did layoff people in covid and now they doing the same after overhiring. Manas and other people are much busy making promotions. They have deferred the increment of indian employees only. We developers are the base of nagarro because of developers your HR, project managers and even manas gets his salary.
