- Career growth = Fairy tale. Stick around a few years and you’ll get... more promises! The classic “opportunity in 6 months” loop is alive and well—perfect if your goal is to retire in the same position you joined in.
- Salary hikes that feel like April Fool's jokes. Increments so low, even service-based companies like TCS and Infosys seem charitable in comparison. If this is how a "premium" product company rewards performance, we can only imagine what they’d pay if we actually underperformed.
- Cars Matter... just not your salary. During appraisal season, 7 brand-new Volvo cars were handed out to country leads—because apparently, that’s what matters. Meanwhile, we were told the company is going through “turbulent times” and there’s no budget for decent increments. What a coincidence. Even more amusing? The same folks who post every free muffin and plant giveaway on LinkedIn went radio silent about these cars. Guess "Cars Matter"—but only when it benefits the elite.
- PX (People Experience) = Poor Experience. Want a simple HR query answered? Set an alarm for 2026. Weeks pass, seasons change, but PX responses remain a myth. We suggest renaming it to "People Exasperation."
- Leadership at ITH: Truly inspirational—if you enjoy seeing clueless middle management contribute nothing while drawing fat paychecks. Honestly, CORE+ should start here. Let's optimize some real costs.
