As a former employee of REI, I would like you enlighten the darker details, which will help you to make a sensible final decision, in case you are planning to get onboarded in the Organization.
Organization Specific:
- REI Systems is an Organization with low class management. They interview candidates introducing them a bluff of working with latest Technology (LWC in terms of salesforce), and later on, tag them to client project, using their app Exchange product, GovGrants (majority of the functionality is still at classic).
- Post Corona Period, The organization is forcing employees to work in hybrid mode (twice a week WFO, rest WFH) and in case, if anyone fails to do so, pressurizing them to apply Loss of Pay Leaves,
- Giving you a token amount in the name of an appraisal, mentioning that the Organization is in financial crisis and promoting the higher Authorities in the same time period.
- Forcing employees to work multiple projects by segregating their working hours on the salary of one employee to implement cost cutting and despite of this, demanding excellent productivity.
- Implementing micro-management by calculating the precise 9 office business hours in office premises excluding lunch break. if you punch-out of the premises, the Timing you were out won't be calculated.
- It's strictly a HIRE & FIRE Company, terminating employees on the same day anytime, highlighting their concerns, without any prior intimation.
Project Specific:
