Avoid as much as you can

Pros

the team was overall good and tried to make it work (considering the circumstances with a management who lives in their own bubble of fake perfection!)

Cons

When you do not have diversity in management and import all of them from India or other Asian countries where they were working with more or less same Indian work culture, its a recipe for failure. People in management think they can get away with covering up their inefficiency and incompetence of understanding the US culture. Unfortunately they have a mindset that staff should be grateful that VFS provided them with a job, probably because they are big in Asia n middle east, but here its a different story which they just can't seem to understand. They pay minimal wages, expectation to do overtime every other day is something they want you to just assume, having trust issues with employees to a level that a Regional Head operates like a office manager, RHR is at another level with no idea of reality! He is one of the worst HR personnel I've seen who doesn't know how to have a decent and logical conversation neither does he are about protecting employee privacy information and RFH is another character altogether. They have a mentality of bringing in majority of Indian background staff since as per their thinking, with them they can get away with all inappropriate and unreasonable work culture. Emotional intelligence, diversity, people management etc. are all limited to social media post! So people try to stay away from this group of people and if you still want to join, then Good Luck and hope you manage to stay positive!

Bad practices under incompetence leadership

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Colleagues, you appreciate having good colleagues dealing with unprofessional directors.

Cons

Wondering why the company hasn't been audited for bad practices. It is not worthy to work in this company unless it is your first job or you really need the money. You can get better job opportunities with better salaries and right set of goals and good labor practices. Company hires locals to do the job who deal on daily basis with inefficient heads of each department that are brought from other country. Managers quit every month because the culture is terrible, VFS brings foreign because it pays low salaries that for them is a big money but they don't have a clue of what the USA labor laws are about.

Thank you for your feedback. We believe your experience working with VFS wasn’t that great. We would like to know this in more details. This is not the culture we are known for. As a matter of fact a lot of employees have rejoined VFS. We are an industry leader and invest significantly in our employees on their training and learnings. We would request you to share more details so we can look into the issues and improvise where possible. Please e-mail us at communications@vfsglobal.com . We look forward to hearing from you.
